How did this happen. I'm getting sucked in. I started with the floor spraying black truck bed paint from Rustoleum.

and ... now I want to paint the interior panels. From what I read here the vinyl panels require a vinyl paint with adhesion promoter first.

I'm hoping for something really bright like a neon orange or yellow or some other really bright color.

Please more details on painting both metal and vinyl panels. Can I use 1 paint instead of hunting to match colors?
What's this vinyl paint adhesion stuff. Is that really necessary?
 
Personally, id have the "soft" interior bits wrapped rather than painted.

Every time I've seen painted interiors, whether it be by regular spray paint or the actual vinyl paint stuff.. it always ends up looking cheap and cheesy.
 
I've never heard of wrapping other than the outside of a vehicle. Is it the same process and what's the approximate cost to do the interior of an extended cab?

It would be the same process, no idea on price though. Wrapping the exterior is pretty damn expensive but I'm sure having Interior pieces done would be exponentially cheaper.. especially if you remove whatever you want wrapped and bring it to them.
 

A little too much work for me. I'd prefer a cheesy paint job to all this for my, what is really, a utility farm vehicle.
