Ok peeps, but off topic but I thought I would ask you bikers for some tips.

I'm looking for some tips on painting interior plastics for a car. I've got all the prep and primers but can anyone recommend a good aerosol or what have you used before?

Many thanks

As long as you have used a primer that is especially for plastics I do believe you can use any good aerosol car paint, if the plastic is flexible then you need proper paint for plastic or it will just crack and flake off.

Yep I have the correct plastic primers, just trying to find a good colour match for the original stuff

What colour are you painting it?

I had and audi with horrendous fake walnut trim. I removed all the trim and sent it to our local paint shop who had just started doing hydrodipping.

Got the whole lot done in a carbon finish which included the clear coat lacquer on top all for £80.

If you have someone nearby that can do it I can highly recommend it.

2k is fine, painted loads of (race) fairings that flex insanely without using plasticisers. Polyurethane is hard wearing, but not very forgiving if you make a mistake, you can polish out 2k with cutting compounds, G6 is a good all rounder.

The best thing you can do is degrease the living daylights out of what ever your doing first
