Ok, I finally finshed painting my interior I am posting pics in this link. I have a question though. I am a terrible sprayer so I had to redo everything I actually went to Home Depot and used a vinyal trim paint that I picked the custom color. I am great with a brush LOL.
Anyway, So it came out wonderful no brush strokes or anything but, the arm rests on the doors seems like it won't dry. I don't know if I am syaing this right ok. I painted Friday night that was 4 days ago so all the paint is dry but, the armrests in the door are dry to touch yet, they feel like ... You know tacky like when paint is almost dry. I hope you guys understand what I am saying.

i cant stress enough that you better put a good clear coat over everything. Because that paint will chip off and look like crap in no time

The thing about clear coating is I don't want a shiny hi-gloss finsh in my car. My trim is a sateen finsh you should see it in person.

yeah I know what you are saying about it being really tacky.

when I had my maxima, I had someone paint my interior because he had done a beautiful job on his car.

it looked pretty good at first, but it took about 2 weeks and it was all faded and lint and dust were getting stuck to it, and my "oh-****" handles never dried. they were still tacky the day I sold the car, and that was a year and a half after it was painted.
