Re: my door panles

I've been using the SEM rattle can for interior stuff. So far the stuff is sticking very well, trick is to just get it really clean first of course. Seems to take a lot of coats to cover, but has a good end result.

Your panels came out real nice.

Re: my door panles

O'reillys has it. They sent over the color chart for me, thought I picked the closest one. But after spraying a few things, I think I want to go a hair darker. Might be I just don't like having the color "NAPA Red".

I've been tinkering with a few things to redo the texture as well. Both my door panels are literally smooth on the top edge now from peoples arms always riding there. So far everything has been to subtle with the texture. Might just end up smoothing them out all over.

Re: my door panles

i did the same thing with my door panels but i painted them blue and within a month the paint began to come off from the vent window hitting them and from peoples arms on the top and the armrest.

let us know how this holds out in the long run

Re: my door panles

It got up to 92 here yesterday, and the truck had been out in the sun with the glass rolled up since there was a chance for rain. I noticed when I got in it to put it inside the shop for the night, my pull straps felt a little sticky. I took my thumbnail and tried to peel it, but it stuck! Time will be the true test.
