Anyone ever use this brand before? Im about to take up a small project of refinishing my interior in my single cab a different color. King ranch red looks tasty :) any tips and tricks are appreciated!

SEM paint from stock interiors.com. I just re-did mine and that paint was great. I looked for some other brands, but none of them matched my red interior. Pics on here too. Down side is it isn't cheap. Clean, clean, clean. I used orange based cleaner, scotch pad, and water. Final prep was Rustoleum wax and tar remover for final clean. Spray it on, wiped it down and dried it off. So far so good.

Well I took a look through their colors on that site and I found myself doubling back to colorbond because i couldn't find that same red I wanted. LMC truck recommends it so I figured what the hell. Now I guess its time to step out into that california heat and rip things apart

After doing a test spray on a small panel I have to say this colorbond stuff is pretty good. I've messed around with that duplicolor stuff in the past and it blows it out of the water for sure. Never tried SEM so I wouldn't know how it compares to that but im happy so far! (before top after bottom)

Seems to be good. I've bumped some of my refinished parts here and there and nothing seems to have chipped or cracked. Easy to get a nice finish on your work just go slow. Good product for sure. None of the parts have made it into the truck yet just cluttering up a bit of my room

Looks good. I used SEM before and had no problem with their products.
