Ok, it was time to get started and complete the 2nd phase. Here are some progress photos.



Had to repair the door panels where the vinyl has pulled away.





First couple of color coats.

Lookin good, I have all my sem stuff in the shed. I'm going to do my lower panels same color. Sem will send you a color chart if you email them

Your entire interior is red?? Even your dash?? Lol Im extreme on one side of the spectrum, your the opposite extreme

I am more anxious to know how the door repair turns out and whether it lasts.

I loved the torch red interior on my white 95. I look forward to seeing the finished product.

Did you rattle can that?

Just an FYI, the lot that I bought my 95 from sent the car to someone to re-dye the seats. I found this out the hard way after driving it with a white shirt on with the top out. My back began to sweat and my shirt was red down the back when I got home. May be an issue if you drive with your arm on the door.

Yea, already had the SEM cans ordered and shipped. Learned that buying the quart cans would have been better and used my paint guns instead. Oh well, live and learn.

SEM Satin Clearcoat will eliminate that.

I have firethorn/black interior in my white 98 and I'm starting to put in some white accents.

Does that much bright red hurt your eyes when its sunny out?

I've always wonder how the paint will hold up over time.

Looking forward to the finished pics. I was pleasantly surprised by the other pics you posted and think this will be more of the same for me. Keep the pics coming.

No, it doesn't hurt....BUT, it really explodes with the top off and in the sunlight. It's almost become a distraction at the red lights from the compliments and the cell phone pic takers.

sfc rick

We'll see, if it's trouble I can always do this every few years. The benefits of color may outway the chore. I thought about having it recovered in vinyl already in red.....BUT I had concerns about fading from the sun and wasting hundreds of dollars on that, versus a simple respray.

Rick, The stuff you are using will last and still much better than you are thinking here. I did parts and it did excellent for the repair and never did go bad per say...:But again I did take care of it like I am sure you will also...thumbs: Robert
