Chromabase vinyl paint turned out good. Cleaned with Oxyclean first. Then rinsed

Steve - WHAT THE ?????? Are you planning on sittin' on that seat or is it just for show???
(hahaha, never heard of Chromabase vinyl paint).

That’s vinyl pant (DuPont) It’s just like SEM .
very durable. DuPont makes very Good Paint. But very bad for you . I’ve been painting cars since I was 17. I’m 56. Yes my hands shake

Harry it’s durable now. That rubber was getting porous now it’s got protection

 

[Stevenovick1]

I used that stuff on my 72 White GS 455 steering wheel rubber. It is white also

 

[Stevenovick1]

That Ohio seat is still flexible The paint never got hard But it’s dry

If any of you guys wanna paint your Ohio seats Wimbledon white 1965 That’s why I took a picture of the can . Secret is cleaning with Oxycleen and rinse well. Used simple green first and a soft scuff pad

 

[Stevenovick1]

The guys on this thread said to use oxyclean. But my black mold spots did not disappear

 

[Stevenovick1]

Can use alcohol wipes to prep after cleaning and it’s dry

That '55 is looking sharp!

Steve - I just don't get how paint can stay on a vinyl seat and go thru various stretching movements, and then return to it's normal shape without the paint showing cracking, zippers, or other changes. I'd like to see it on your steering wheel of your GS 455. Include some other pics so we can see the whole car while you're at it.
