Interior Painting

[Isanti Lawn Man]

Hello,

Im working on restoring a 1972 C10, 2wd, 4 speed on the floor with a 350. She's hugger orange and being restored mostly to original with a touch of cool!haha Im wondering if anyone has ever done a great job of painting the interior steel parts, floorboards, and door sills themselves? Im really tempted to try painting it myself with everything out. If I screw it up real bad I can just sand it back down to the steel and then have the body shop paint it when they paint the exterior. Let me know your thoughts.

Thanks!

I'm actually going throughout this exact same thing right now . Ill try and post some pics later when I get home to show how difficult, well actually how simple it is.. you definitely sound motivated and sometimes that's the most difficult thing to get, motivation. Ill be using a HVLP gun for the dash but I'm rattling the trim and glove box door with glossy black... and its coming out decent.

Just did that with my project, striped everything down to bare steel,




Then shot it with epoxy primer to get it ready for paint.
