SEM seems to be ok for black. It's not dead on perfect though.

Some interior color change. I lightly went over the panels with a scotchbrite pad on some of the scratches and followed the SEM procedure, here are some of the results:

SEM should be available from any auto paint store (aka "jobber").
On plastic & vinyl, I've also used the OER stuff from Classic Ind.
Nice stuff, the cans with the big white plastic nozzle spray well with decent coverage.
Available in factory Mopar colors, too, if you need color.
Same prep as SEM & etc.

Did you spray plastic? How is the adhesion to plastic? any flaking and how long has it been since you paints stuff?
TIA!

Go to the SEM web site and look at their products. They say to use a cleaner/wash prep they have before you use the die(it's not paint/if go with the dye). Guess that depends on what product you go with. They have a dye and a "flex coating". Look for a local place that sells the SEM line. Not all paint shops may carry it.
