I am getting ready to purchase interior finishes for my car but I have a bit of a twist. My dash frame is painted the interior satin (velvet???) burnt orange, as is the steering column. The steel side panels are painted in the external FK5 burnt metallic orange. I need to re-dye all the interior plastic including console, kick panels, windlace, dash pad and sun visors and arm rests to match. I also need to paint the steering column rim blow wheel adapter, ash tray, upper windshield rim, and package tray with the velvet FK 5. The guy I bought the car from says that SEM was used on the dash and headliner. I went to my local jobber and they said that SEM doesn't mix custom or stock factory paint. It would be no big deal if I didn't have to paint the rimblow column adapter, but I do.
Question. What product should I use to dye all the vinyl, plastic and rubber to match the interior panels I'll be purchasing from Legendary? What should I use on the steel parts and package tray?
I will add that the dash looks dead nuts on with factory color wise.
I’m listening.

sem products all the way, i used it on metal and plastic in my cuda, worked great. the prep makes all the difference......
as far as a match, i found a local detailer that buys sem products in bulk, and he custom mixes colors on the spot. try some local detail shops?
See, I was expecting that SEM had a process like this because the guy I bought this car from swears it was shot with SEM. The work was done 4 years ago and I may have to call that shop and jog their memory. The shop in spokane I have been getting my supplies from has a product they use on vinyl and plastic called Specialty Coatings. They said they could match the color on the panels and trim. As far as the metal parts go, I am still looking for answers. I'll have to call around to the competitors.
I’m listening.
