Has anyone had any luck in painting their interior trim pieces, like the dog house, etc?? mine are all gray but stained, apparently the previous owner had a bit of an issue with spilling things....



wondering if you did have luck, how well did it go and what did you use?? I would like to turn all the gray to black on the inside of my wagon...

Tan Paint and Gray paint is made by Eastwood. Same paint spec as original. I will post the paint codes later tonight. The majority of trim now sold from AMG is black and it is paint to match.

Yep, just got done with my project. very impressed with the product. Duplicolor vinyl and fabric paint. It does not rub off or scratch! I turned my wagon from tan to grey and black.

no need to prime. you must prep very well though as in any paint project. clean thoroughly with something that will not leave any residue. ie; an aerosol glass cleaner with alcohol in it.
