I know this vid is over a year old but I just gotta say.. this dudes honesty and knowledge made me completely change my mind on doing a vinyl wrap and just spraying my trim.
That’s amazing to hear! I super appreciate that feedback! I’m also really happy to know that the video was helpful enough to have such an impact, that’s awesome. Feel free to reach out if you have any questions during your project. Good luck!
I stumbled across this video and was really impressed by how knowledgeable this guy is. Sure, he’s covering the basics, but sometimes that's exactly what people need to hear to get things right. It’s not always about groundbreaking info, but more about being clear and effective. I’m super happy I found his content and just had to hit that subscribe button. Here’s hoping his channel picks up more traction because he definitely deserves it. Thanks for putting this out there-I’m excited to see where he goes from here!
Thank you so much for that feedback! I'm happy you found my content too, and I really appreciate the sub! I'm still trying to figure out all this stuff, but comments like that are super encouraging and validating. Hope you enjoy some of the upcoming (and on-going) projects!
Ngl, dude got straight to the point was clear and real AND THEN gave his information to follow him. But the information was on point and fun to watch, wish I found this video 3 weeks ago cuz I started my interior n the videos I was watching did not cover some of the points he did
For some reason everyone keeps finding this video AFTER they do their projects. Hopefully you can use the info on some future projects or to inspire some new projects! And thank you so much for the feedback! I really appreciate when people watch my videos and take the time to leave comments, but it's honestly really helpful to hear the viewer experience. Thanks again!
Maaan you and me both! I’m trying to develop a smoother workflow so that they don’t take so long. I really appreciate the patience tho! Imma figure out the consistency formula!!
A great way to paint parts is to hang them, get some tie wire, and glue gun. Cut the wire to an appropriate length hot glue it with a small dab on the back of the part. Bend the other end over a rod or 2x2 or whatever you hang them from. Another thing is do not touch the parts with your bare hands after they are sanded and wiped down. The oil from your skin transfers to the plastic and will either leave a mark or cause a weak bond. Thanks for all of your videos. They are very informative.
I actually really wanted to hang these but wasn't really prepared to until kind of the last minute (I also didn't know exactly how I was going top do it). Definitely going to try that next time though, it seems like the way to go. Thanks for the suggestion and break down of how to do it!
This was such a dope explanation and process breakdown my dude. I've got an 08 xB myself and I'm looking at finally getting some interior pieces touched up the same color as my wrap (glossy lime green). Got yourself another subscriber! 👏🏿
Thanks! I just noticed spray painting gets a bad reputation (mostly because of the abundance of poor paint jobs), and wanted to help people get the best results if they decided to go this route. For a quick lil update, work was done about 2 years ago, and other than a few spots that got banged up, the paint is still holding up super nice. Good luck on your project, and thanks for the sub!
Thank you so much! That means a lot! I’m just trying to share what I know! If you have any questions during the process, please don’t hesitate to ask. Good luck with your van’s interior!
First video here (after i paint mine) 😂 But let me tell u brother i was watching the video with my daughter and we like it, i like u (no homo) u look humble and simple guy and i like that. Many blessings to you and keep doing the good work! 🫡 NICE VIDEO BROTHER!!!
Why does everyone keep finding this video AFTER their project? But thanks man! I honestly appreciate that feedback. I like to think of myself as a pretty simple guy! Thanks for the well wishes! Hope you check out some more videos in the future!
Hey man I used this video and came out with very impressive results. Did my interior bezels matte black. 400 grit sand Wiped with lacquer thinner Then used your advice when shaking and paint passes. Thanks!!
That’s really great to hear! I honestly appreciate the feedback, especially from someone who actually USED the video. Thanks for checking it out, and thanks for letting me know how it worked out for you!
Good videos bro. I bought a 2012 Scion XB I'm doing a full interior restore. Sound deadening and interior paint. I'm using Colorbond paint made for interior parts. I'm stealthing it out all black. The silver pieces around the gear shifter I wet sanded with 1200 Grit and used krylon fusion paint which turned out amazing. All of the upper parts will be all black instead of grey. I also put in a black headliner. I am going to replace the factory stereo with an alpine ILX-650. I bought this model because it's a stick shift which is going away. Removing the entire dash and front was a challenge as there is not a lot of information out there. I'm also gonna add RGB lighting on the inside that will also follow the music. Like you said, with all the sound deadening material it's not going to be a race box, but a bass box. LOL I haven't decided on a proper amp or speaker upgrades yet.
Thanks man! I bet that actual interior paint is gonna be nice. I’m thinking about blacking out all the grey too, it just looks bad with the green and black now. I still have yet to fully remove the dash, but it needs to come out next. Sounds like you’re gonna have a pretty dope build!
Thank you! It's still holding up a couple years later! And do you mean like to remove them from your car to paint? Most modern cars have a lot of pieces that literally just pull off, but you definitely want to be careful to not break anything while you're doing it!
That’s why you gotta do it! You gotta be the first! But I know what you mean, definitely a little harder when there isn’t much content to use as a reference. Hope it works out for you!
just came across your channel. great video. now if you want to not paint on a table and get a better result you can get some old wire coat hangers and hang them from something so you don't tilt your can. and paint is safe to touch after 48 hours but it can take up to 30 days to completely cure. but your work looks great.
Thanks man! And yea I remember wanting to hang stuff at the time, but didn’t really have a means to do so. Definitely going to be trying that out next time, thanks for the tip!
Finally finished everything, I spray painted everything glossy black and it looks so much better, but there were a few imperfections with the stuff I couldn’t easily take off, transmission, ac nobs, right fan cover thingy, etc. So it looks good but it could look better lol. If I wasn’t so busy and lazy with my editing I would edit the video abt it and the whole process but yk lol
Yea I had similar issues on the hard to remove pieces. Up close there are some scratches and imperfections, but it comes with the territory! Glad it worked out for you! And I absolutely understand the editing struggle! Just do what you can, when you can, and little by little it will get done when it’s ready
Save all you subwoofer cardboard boxes to use as spray paint props plus you can psint your plastic pises inside a big cardboard box to keep overspray down if you inside. I save alot of cardboard boxes lol when I spray paint. Plus krylon fusion is made for plastic it works great after prep.
That’s not a bad idea at all to help cut down on the wind for outdoor painting! And yea I always keep sturdy cardboard for all kinds of stuff around the garage. And I never tried that Krylon yet, but I’m always checking out what colors they got available. Might have to try them out some time. Thanks for your suggestions!
As long as you take your time, and then let it dry for a few days before you touch it, it should be good for a while. Mine is still holding strong, even in the areas that get used. Good luck with yours!
@@DaBadNewz thank you man, definitely earned my follow and support. I spent like $80.00 in supply for this. But hopefully the grit I got on the sanding will be good. Someone recommend I used 5000 grit. But if you have a different preference please do let me know.
5000 would be good for after you spray the clear (to polish it up for the extra shine). Tbh I never even did that part. For sanding the pieces before you paint, i use 400 grit most of the time. Basically just want it evenly scuffed up. If you go too low, you’ll put scratches, but if it’s too high then it wont really do what you need it to. Hope this helps! And thanks for the follow!
My interior is black. I have a white car and I want to change the interior to beige do you think I can do that? I want to swap out the carpet and roof and seats with beige and repair the door and dashboard interior
That is 100% possible! (It IS quite a bit of work, but I think the results are worth it if they’re something you really want). Getting the seats, floor, and headliner reupholstered are all just a matter of budget/time and fixing up and changing the color of the plastics is all just good prep work and taking your time on the painting. It’s very doable, and you have options about how you go about it. Hope it works out for you!
I wish i watched this first before i started my project. It came out nice but its already samaged and pieces have chipped. I didnt sand it nor apply primer
You don’t NEED primer (but definitely helps). But sanding off the coating?? MUST DO. That’s why you get the chipping and flaking. Not too late to try again! Just sand off the paint you did AND the coating and you’re back in the game. Good luck on your project!
I did not! I’ve actually never used it before, but I want to try it. These pieces have been painted a couple years now and the paint has been holding up really well.
That kind of depends on what you mean. The little covers that go behind my door handles (that I painted in this video) has a texture to it, if you mean like those, then yes I would still recommend sanding, but do so with a sponge or something that will keep even pressure, and don't sand very aggressively if you want it to keep the texture, (mine is definitely not as textured as it was before I painted it). BUT, if you mean like an actual soft type vinyl/leather, then I would honestly not know if spray painting is the best bet in the first place. Hope that answers your question, if not, I'd be happy to clarify!
How did you get the right most fan out to spray-paint the outside yk like how you did. I have all the pry tools but it’s very difficult, could be that I’m just 17 and not smart enough but I got all the other ones to work.
Nah honestly that one is just a bitch! I ended up buying a stubby screwdriver and also a tiny right angle screwdriver and just pulled the dash up enough to get my hand in there. It was not comfortable, but it’s not impossible. You kinda just wedge you hand in there and do it blind…or you take off the dash, but who has time for that? Sorry I couldn’t be more informative, that one is just really a pain. Good luck!
@@DaBadNewz I’m going to try that but if I can’t I might just put duct tape all around it and just spray paint it while it’s on the car after I sand it down, I’ll lyk if it works lol
In which step? When you initially rough it up? If so, yea that’s totally fine. You just want it to have all the wax removed and leave a surface the primer can “grab.” Hope that answers your question, if not, I’m happy to clarify!
@@DaBadNewz yes 1st step to prepping likre scuffing the clear coat out with 400 then primer then so on should i hit it with 1000 grit for the finishing? or just gloss black then clear coat and done
@@Luui2x Oh my bad I misunderstood. You don't really NEED to sand between coats, but if you want that extra extra smooth look, it can help. I didn't with the interior parts, but for my sub box, I wet sanded between coats just to make sure everything was as smooth as possible. (Just keep a bucket of water, dip your sand paper in it, and lightly hit the primer JUST to smooth it out). Not super required, but it IS that extra step to get the extra results. God luck!
Can we spray paint the entire car interior with house paint? I'm talking ceiling, floors, carpet, seats, dash, doors. All. Of. It. 10:37 Like...color flooding it? I want it to see how something like that would look like. Imagine it. Brand new land cruiser/4runner/sienna, all black exterior, or black accents, then open it up and its a flood of either an all pink, purple, or orange interior. Idc if people think it's destroyed or hurts resale value. When I buy things, I buy things for me, not for others.
I’m 1000% FOR the idea of a completely color matched interior. On the cars I’ve seen that have done it, it usually ends up super clean. That being said, I definitely don’t think I’d be using house paint to do it. I’m not 100% sure as to why tbh, I just don’t think that’s the best for the job. But the concept? ALL for it.
Hey I'm just a regular guy! I appreciate each and every view my videos get, so of course I'm going to reply to the folks that engage with them too! And if you wanted your interior redone like that, you would most likely be looking into a custom shop (one that does at least paint and upholstery)...sometimes you just end up finding a good custom paint shop AND a good custom upholstery shop. Heads up though, this type of work is NOT cheap. Especially from a shop that does good work. (That's why I DIY) Good luck!
Hanging in there just fine! Tbh I haven’t looked at the roof in a while, but I’m taking the lack of sagging as a good sign. Everywhere else and where I can actually see it it’s doing great! Still very much in favor!
I would definitely recommend it! I have a couple videos of the process (doing the doors, floor, and roof). You don’t need to completely cover an area for it to make a noticeable difference. And I definitely recommend getting a roller (I would get either one with bearings OR a metal roller). Just makes the process much easier.
Really depends on the car. In mine, the whole car was noisy from the jump, so everywhere needed a bit, but I started with the doors to try to minimize the road noise a bit. When I added the sub, the roof was vibrating so loud you could hear it over the bass sometimes, so that was what I addressed next. You kinda just need to listen around to what is shaking the worse and work from there. But be warned! Chasing rattles literally never ends! Just work from worst offenders first. Good luck man!
I would try to prevent it from just sitting in the sun for the first few days, (can be done before reinstall), but other than that, it does fine! When I'm not at home it's usually in the sun, and while SD isn't the hottest, it has definitely seen some heat in the 2 years it's been done. So far, other than a few dings here n there from wear n tear, paint still holding up strong! Thanks for checking it out!
I'm in San Diego, but heads up...it aint cheap! The reason I try to teach how to DIY is because if I do it, it's gonna be a couple hundred...if you do it, it will cost you about $30! BUT, if you got about $300 burning a whole in your pocket, get at me!
Do it go live! You gotta deal with all the weirdos in the comments but you don’t even have to edit it in post, you can rip off a new episode every day off the cuff
I tried it once while I was doing my engine change, and realized that I would definitely want to prepare a little more. But I really like the idea of a regular Live episode! Editing takes a ridiculous amount of my time right now, and that would be a pretty slick way to not get too wrapped up in it, but still be able to put out content with some kinda consistency. Thanks for the input! You got me thinking!
I know this vid is over a year old but I just gotta say.. this dudes honesty and knowledge made me completely change my mind on doing a vinyl wrap and just spraying my trim.

@@DaBadNewzthank you! So far so good. Started off rough due to an old can of primer so I ended up doing prep work twice 🤦♀️
@audreyrusso5968 definitely been there! You’ll appreciate the results even more when the project is said and done.
How do you clean it afterwards?
Not sure I understand the question, you mean like how do you clean it for regular maintenance? Or after having a paint mishap?
This man woke up one day and chose "chill Jamaican hood" as his lifestyle

That kind of depends on what you mean. The little covers that go behind my door handles (that I painted in this video) has a texture to it, if you mean like those, then yes I would still recommend sanding, but do so with a sponge or something that will keep even pressure, and don't sand very aggressively if you want it to keep the texture, (mine is definitely not as textured as it was before I painted it).

@@Luui2x Oh my bad I misunderstood. You don't really NEED to sand between coats, but if you want that extra extra smooth look, it can help.
I didn't with the interior parts, but for my sub box, I wet sanded between coats just to make sure everything was as smooth as possible. (Just keep a bucket of water, dip your sand paper in it, and lightly hit the primer JUST to smooth it out).
Not super required, but it IS that extra step to get the extra results.

Can we spray paint the entire car interior with house paint?

Idc if people think it's destroyed or hurts resale value. When I buy things, I buy things for me, not for others.
I’m 1000% FOR the idea of a completely color matched interior. On the cars I’ve seen that have done it, it usually ends up super clean. That being said, I definitely don’t think I’d be using house paint to do it. I’m not 100% sure as to why tbh, I just don’t think that’s the best for the job.
But the concept? ALL for it.
@DaBadNewz I'm so excited you replied!!!
Thank you!!!
I'm excited, where would I go for this type of work?
Do the shops have names?
Hey I'm just a regular guy! I appreciate each and every view my videos get, so of course I'm going to reply to the folks that engage with them too! And if you wanted your interior redone like that, you would most likely be looking into a custom shop (one that does at least paint and upholstery)...sometimes you just end up finding a good custom paint shop AND a good custom upholstery shop.
Heads up though, this type of work is NOT cheap. Especially from a shop that does good work. (That's why I DIY)
Good luck!
How’s your sound-deadening holding up?
Hanging in there just fine! Tbh I haven’t looked at the roof in a while, but I’m taking the lack of sagging as a good sign.
Everywhere else and where I can actually see it it’s doing great! Still very much in favor!
@@DaBadNewzAny tips on sound deadening? Thinking of adding a little to the box to cut some road noise
I would definitely recommend it! I have a couple videos of the process (doing the doors, floor, and roof).
You don’t need to completely cover an area for it to make a noticeable difference.
And I definitely recommend getting a roller (I would get either one with bearings OR a metal roller). Just makes the process much easier.
@@DaBadNewz thanks man is there an area you think will make the most difference? Like if you had to choose one?
Really depends on the car. In mine, the whole car was noisy from the jump, so everywhere needed a bit, but I started with the doors to try to minimize the road noise a bit.
When I added the sub, the roof was vibrating so loud you could hear it over the bass sometimes, so that was what I addressed next.
You kinda just need to listen around to what is shaking the worse and work from there.
But be warned! Chasing rattles literally never ends! Just work from worst offenders first.
Good luck man!
Color is poppN!
Thanks! It's still holding up pretty good about 2 years later
It looks really well done! Thanks for the video. I see your car is in the garage, but how would heating up from the sun affect the paint?
I would try to prevent it from just sitting in the sun for the first few days, (can be done before reinstall), but other than that, it does fine! When I'm not at home it's usually in the sun, and while SD isn't the hottest, it has definitely seen some heat in the 2 years it's been done. So far, other than a few dings here n there from wear n tear, paint still holding up strong!
Thanks for checking it out!
CAN U DO MY SCION TC LOL
I’ve already done one, so that’s nothing!
@DaBadNewz where you located and how much lol
I'm in San Diego, but heads up...it aint cheap! The reason I try to teach how to DIY is because if I do it, it's gonna be a couple hundred...if you do it, it will cost you about $30!
BUT, if you got about $300 burning a whole in your pocket, get at me!
Do it go live! You gotta deal with all the weirdos in the comments but you don’t even have to edit it in post, you can rip off a new episode every day off the cuff
I tried it once while I was doing my engine change, and realized that I would definitely want to prepare a little more. But I really like the idea of a regular Live episode! Editing takes a ridiculous amount of my time right now, and that would be a pretty slick way to not get too wrapped up in it, but still be able to put out content with some kinda consistency.
Thanks for the input! You got me thinking!
Wad up
What’s up man?! Hope things been well out there!
no
yes
