I think I used SEM vinyl dye for my interior and it was an exact match. The shock towers had faded to nearly white!

Yes to the vinyl dye/spray can. I have used it in black colour. Don't know where you guys would get it though.

SEM is the ticket. A place called Tabco sell paint supplies in Houston (not much help in Fulton, sorry). You can try:

KolorPro

1129 Somerset Avenue,

Beltsville MD 20705

(301) 595-9183

OR-

FinishMaster

5049A Branchville Rd.

College Park MD 20740

(301) 474-3200

NAPA might have it. I think my local paint supplier carries it.

Thanks for the response , is there a paint code mix for the RED interior on the S30. I will like to get as close to the correct color :bulb:

It's SEM Color Coat in NAPA Red 15273.

Chuck, thanks for the info, to the NAPA store I go..................

As with all painting, the work is in the prep. I used SEM on part of my door panels and was happy with the result. They sell a prep solution, but I used Acetone.

It is very important that you clean off any oil/silicone/treatment that has been rubbed onto the vinyl, or the spray paint will not stick.

I used SEM on the back seat of my 1929 Ford Roadster - be sure to use the Prep/Cleaner - use it with good ventilation. Once you apply the color you can not scrape it off - it is really a dye, not an interior paint. Highly recommend it to anybody just so you do the prep/cleaner correctly.

tlorber, Tman , thanks for the tip

NAPA Red is a SEM Color Name - I don't know of the NAPA Parts Stores sell it or not.{just wanted that to be clear}

SEM products are handled by most Automotive Paint Stores and suppliers.

FWIW,
