Mine is sun-faded. Whoever owned the convertible before me must have NEVER put any armor all or black magic on anything and now I can't get the finish back on the center console no matter what I put on it. Anyone paint this thing? or have a suggestion I should try?

Re: Speaking of center consoles...
mine was like a darker grey when i bought it and i scrubbed it down with a bristle brush and dawn and it darkened it up quite a bit. On the other hand, it was mostly just dirty, and not sun faded.
I've used the PROMAX plastic bumper paint, and it does a great job. Thin enough to show the veins of the plastic, and it seems really durable so far. Vinyl paint should work on the lid, but i don't have a brand to recommend as i haven't done any vinyl painting -

Re: Speaking of center consoles...
I actually looked at that can today, and realized it wasn't PROMAX. PROMAX is their brand of enamel paints so I got a little confused. The manufacturer is SEM, and the color is "honda black" and it's just plastic bumper paint.
sorry about thatComment

How about going to a junk yard and grabbing another console rather than painting it and having it mismatch looking?1999 Pewter Camaro M5<br />Y87 Performance Package, Sport Appearance Package, Diamond Clears<br />Factory SS Hood, Free Ram Air Mod, Whisper Lid w/ K&N Air Filter<br />CarSound Cat 94009, B&B Tri-Flo w/ Quad Tips<br />BMR SFC, BMR STB, KVR Blank Rotors, Hawk HPS Pads<br />Black Painted Calipers w/ CAMARO Decal, 245/50 Dunlop SP Sport 5000<br />20% Rear 35% Side Tint, Red Reflective Inlays, Invincishield<br /><b>Young girls avert their eyes, weak men tremble, Ford dealers faint.</b>Comment

Building the Tom Henry RS
Part 4: Suspension Mods, Tires, Wheels, Headers and other Cool Stuff.

Ultralites are nearly 25% lighter than the stock 1.6 rockers and 8% lighter than the SLP aluminum...02-07-2020, 11:30 PM
