Interior paint information

Hey,
Looking for paint recommendations for my back seat side panels (plastic) and the front doors upper steel panels. I have a 67 Coronet drop top with a black interior.

SEM Color Coat.

SEM "landau black" on the plastic. Standard automotive on the steel for the best durability.

Herb's works great. Used it on my armrests to match my new upholstery. Had to paint my sail panels and color was a little different so had to get single stage mixed at a local auto parts shop.

SEM could be great, just that I haven't used it, used Herb's and happy with the results.

Might be the same with a label change?????

Wouldn't be the first time or the 10,000th. Having been in many processing plants on the job, wasn't unusual to see the same product being filled into containers - only the labels were different.

Who manufactures SEM? Herb's is AMS Obsolete.

SEM is widely available - no "ordering online", paying shipping, long waits, etc, etc.. It lays out beautifully. Coverage with a single coat meaning you don't lose the definition of the grain in the plastic parts. Touch-ups blend without a trace. "Landau black" is a perfect match to Mopar black interior plastic and soft parts. What's not to like ?!?!

 

[RedBeard]

Yes, black is an easy match. I had a harder time with most of my interior being gold.
