Painting Vinyl Seats - Duplicolor
ฝัง
- เผยแพร่เมื่อ 31 ก.ค. 2022
- I was never a fan of the Cream and Black "Panda" seats that were in my car. But, options were limited when I was trying to buy a Fastback.
I do want to do something different with the seats in my car, but in the mean time I want to change the color and I figured out a way to do it cheap, to buy me some time before I get different seats.
Duplicolor - Vinyl & Fabric Spray, 11oz can, part no. HVP106 amzn.to/3cKKHuk
The car is a 1966 Mustang Fastback with a factory V8 and T5 transmission.

That’s really impressive! Never realized you could do that. And to end up with such a great color match - superb!
Thank you! Cheers!
Great work, I used the exact same brand and paint in my 68 fairlane for the whole interior and I’ve never had a problem with it and I did mine about a year ago now. Also the longer it’s on there and the more it’s used the better it looks and feels, so you shouldn’t have any problems. Keep up the great content!
Good to know, thanks!
@@AndyKruseChannel no problem
I also used this before they also sell a clear coat to make it last longer. Looks good 👍
Good to know!
looks great..
Thank you! Cheers!
Looks good
Thanks!
I did a blue to black dash pad in my 67... a long time ago... that stuff works pretty well
Yeah, I've been pretty happy with the results. :)
They came out a lot better than I expected. Let me know if it comes off on your pants! That's the only thing that would scare me. I'm sure Duplicolor has that figured out though..
I painted them almost 6 weeks ago (I had lots of videos in queue before this came out), and I haven't had any issues. The paint is holding up great. So well that I've put my plans off for a while on what I want to do with the seats. This is good because it lets me put the money towards more important upgrades. :)
@@AndyKruseChannel that’s great to hear! I need to get that far ahead. Everyone will be happy to hear there haven’t been any bleed issues.
I used the same product for my sun visors. I used the adhesion promotor first. Its clear and pliable, stops paint from flaking.
Awesome, I like that idea on the visors.
Looks good. I'm going to try and use fabric paint on my cloth seats and maybe paint my carpet.
I don't recommend this as a long term solution. What I mean is I was never going to keep these seats, and so painting them in the interim while I figured out what seats I wanted was purely a band-aid because I disliked the white and black seats so much. This may work well on the carpet, but depending on your use of the seats, it may not hold up as long as you hope for. I plan to do a follow up video on this to show how the paint has held up. :)
@@AndyKruseChannel Thank you for the advice. I'm hoping a good cleaning will make them look better otherwise trying the paint will be an option before replacement.
I love the all black Pony seats much better!
I prefer the all black too! :)
Looks fantastic! Am about to spray my 67 FJ40 seats, they look very ashy!
Yeah this is a temporary solution, and it'll help freshen up some seats you're not interested in keeping restored, but this isn't really a long term option. :)
I can't believe you sprayed that close to the car.
Wait until you watch my other videos.
@Andy Kruse lol. I'm doing the inside of my dash, doors now on my 67 mustang. They were a nasty green/aqua color. I'm going frost turquoise to match the outside of the car. I got my interior mask off better than a sterile operating room at a hospital. Lol
Ahh, we was on such a great track doing suspension work. A step backwards. I thought sure we were heading to the electric power steering upgrade. :-)
It’s all part of the plan.
Very impressive results. Wonder what the outcome would be if a person was going from a darker color to a lighter one, such as black to tan, etc. Probably take more coats to cover the black I guess.
Thanks!
I think you're correct, it might take an extra coat or too to cover the black. :)
Did you use gloss black or flat black? How do you maintain them armor all? Thanks for the videos.
It's a Matte Black color. I haven't wiped them down since I sprayed them, so I don't know if something like armor-all will do the trick. While we're on the subject, I don't use armor-all in my vehicles because it has silicon in it and it just collects more dust. I use "303 Aerospace Protectant" in places where I would have used armor-all. I've been using this for over 10 years and I'm happy with the results. :)
i have the same interior, would you recommend painting the whole seat instead of just the centre section?
You definitely could, it would make the inner and outer sections match better. I have plans for different seats down the road, but this definitely works for now. :)
i have a 68 camaro with blue fabric and i want it black, i want to paint my 2 front seats and the rear seat , the 2 door panels and the 2 rear panels, so how many cans do i need? all fabric is blue so i have to paint everything and i dont know how much do i need... is ok with a box of 6 or i need 2 boxes that means 12 cans
I think you'll definitely need all 6 cans of that one box, but I don't think you'll need 12. If the box of 12 is priced fairly and you'd rather not deal with the inconvenience of needing to source an extra can or two, I'd get the box of 12.
While I've got you here, please note that painting the interior is more of a band aid than an upgrade. I completely plan on replacing my front seats and I have no interest in restoring them or anything like that, so I had no issue painting them. I feel your pain on the blue interior as I wouldn't like it either, but just a heads up if you choose to go down this path. :)
Just did my aqua interior. Made it all black. Worked great!!
Nice! Feels like a new car now!
@Andy Kruse it will. After I do the dry rotted aqua headliner, and green carpet. Lol. But, I'm getting there. Slowly.
awesome job. How looks like after a year?? I planning do it
Pretty decent for the most part. I actually talk about how the paint has held up in the video that comes out this Thursday. :)
This never crossed my mind as a possibility. Is there a paint that can repair stitching and tears? 😬
Not sure, but it would be cool if there was. :)
Where did you get the center console you said in one of your videos you only paid like $70 for it
The console I purchased for this car was used (off Ebay) and before shipping it was around $70. On my previous Mustang I purchased the same console, but new, from CJPony and it was about $150 shipped, now they're $180 plus shipping.
Thank you Andy I will keep looking
Wow, that's impressive! Btw, any plans on that six gauge cluster? ;)
Yes, I've been putting together a list of what I'd like to have, the hard part is deciding which face design to go with. :)
@@AndyKruseChannel Yeah too many good ones to choose from. Personally I would prefer something that looks stock; black gauges with classic font and nice chrome trim.
@@millenbop I sort of agree, Autometer makes a set like you've described, and it's at the top of my list. It's one of those things where I only want to do it once since it's so expensive. :)
No adhesion promotor?
Nope, not required to make these work, that’s party of the beauty of it. But, I still only recommend this as a last-ditch option or when your in between your old seats and getting some new ones. The paint has held up fairly well since I made this video, but there’s o e spot where it not lasting. It’s a part of the vinyl that creases when sitting in it. It doesn’t look horrible, but it doesn’t look good either. 😁
How well does it hold up to wear?
So far it has held up great, but the car doesn't get used much in the winter, so this coming summer will be a better gauge on how well it continues to hold up. :)
@@AndyKruseChannel I am going to do the same with my seats. They are aqua. Such an ugly color combo with frost turquoise exterior. I'm going all black.
Some of the reviews and other videos talk about the several years they can get out of set of painted seats with this specific paint. If you put a little effort in up front to make sure the vinyl is clean and good to go, I think the paint will last a while. In the mean time you can decide if you want to re-upholster the factory seats or just buy new. I painted mine to buy me some time until I can afford the seats I want. :)
@@AndyKruseChannel I plan to do the same. I will put black seats in eventually. This is just a show car. So it will only come out of the garage 2 or 3 times a year. So it will get very little use. But, this is a cheap fix for now.
@@hughphillips67Mustang That's a great to put it, it's a cheap fix. You honestly can't tell it's painted, even if I told you they were. Definitely good enough for now while I figure things out. :)
I’m surprised that you painted the seats next to your car. Weren’t you concerned about overspray?
Nope.
does it look the same after one year
I'd say it's about 97-98% the same. There's one weird crease on my seat that the paint has worn off. It's small, but I see it because I know it's there. I'm ok with that because I knew this was going to be a temporary fix. Otherwise, without that one small spot, you'd never know I painted the seats. :)
@@AndyKruseChannelmight have to get couple cans today anyway how many cans did you use, I think I need roughly 5 or 6 cans or more for front and back seats, thank you
@@peterbrown1968 I used one can, but that was for the center sections of the front two seats. If you need to do the whole front seats, and the rear seat, I'd say 3 cans, maybe 4. :)
I can't believe he is spraying paint that close to his car. There WILL be overspray.
It adds character! :)
SEM is laquer bsed looks and hold up better imo
Thanks for the heads up.
Why not just paint the complete seat any reason
It probably wouldn’t hurt it, but it would require more paint. I’d rather save the few extra bucks for the seats I plan to put in the car. 🙂
2nd step, go back and claybar the paint on your Mustang to get all the overspray off lol, made me cringe seeing you paint right next to your car.
Look at it like I'm "Seasoning" the car. :)
Hand was so distracting 😂
Cool, so both hands next time? :)
If your seats are damaged from working on them, you don't work on them
Um, yes?
@@AndyKruseChannel aren't*.. everytime I look at my seats for took long or walk past the car holding a screw driver, something bad seems to happen to those seats
I have the same thing happen then I look at the poor paint job on the car, I'm so tempted to say "F it!" and begin to remove the paint. :)
@@AndyKruseChannel I feel you there big! My car was painted by previous owner and maybe had 1.5 costs on it? No clear coat either.. I've taught myself to love blemishes otherwise I would just be crying all the time
