Title: 67 Console Color
Post by: Knappy on March 29, 2011, 10:27:31 PM

I am about to paint the black part of my console.  What gloss do I need to use?
The 30%  looks too dull.  Is the dash bezel above the console the same as the console?

I used semi-gloss.  Might have even been satin.  But IMO, it is still too shiney.  I'm thinking of trying interior dye and see how it looks.

I think I will try the 30% semi flat black.  It is hard to compare unless you know
what the originals look like.

I used semi gloss,but just a light spray.There were just a few light scratches on it.I sanded a little & sprayed.Not sure what is  correct,but I liked the way it turned out.Good luck!
