MajorPain Posted February 5, 2019 Share Posted February 5, 2019 Hey guys and gals, new member! Ive found some replacement interior parts (dash, dash pad, and other pieces) for my son's 1970 Monte Carlo, the problem is that his interior is blue and just about everything I've found is black. What is the very best paint to use when changing the color of these items to his original blue? All help is appreciated. We really want a professional look and the pieces to match the rest of his original interior. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
cny first gen 71 Posted February 5, 2019 Share Posted February 5, 2019 Welcome aboard, SEM makes some good products. I used it to do my dash pad. The important thing is to clean the parts up real good and then clean them again and rinse all the cleaner off real good. You can get it at your local body shop supply store. good luck with your project, we love pictures of projects here. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
RealRed70 Posted February 5, 2019 Share Posted February 5, 2019 I second the use of the SEM products. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
MC1of80 Posted February 5, 2019 Share Posted February 5, 2019 I second the second on the use of SEM products. I have used them on many projects with great results. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
MajorPain Posted February 6, 2019 Author Share Posted February 6, 2019 Thanks guys! It looks like SEM is the way to go. I'll check around here and see if i can match the color. My son's 70 is a work in progress so I'll see if I can post some shots later. I have a 72 Monte myself and it's mostly done except for redoing the MAACO paint job that's on it where the previous owner painted it. Again, I appreciate the help!

jft69z Posted February 6, 2019 Share Posted February 6, 2019 Same good results with SEM here. Your paint jobber can also mix up some for you. I've used DuPont (Axalta now) interior colors and vinyl dyes before with great results, but you'd need a spray gun, etc to use it. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
