I am going to Pep Boys tomorrow to check out what they have. I just installed plastic door panels in my pickup that need to be repainted. I used some Rustoleum spray paint for the other panels which will see no abuse, but I need something more durable for the door panels. I will let you know what they have.

alright thanks man...i couldnt find anything worth while at the local store...we will see...

I checked out three chain auto parts stores here. They carry either PlastiKote or DupliColor interior paint. But they both appear to be for porous surfaces.
I am going to the local autobody supply store, about a mile from here, tomorrow and ask him what the pro's use.

Well, I went to the local autobody supply house this morning. They sell SEM brand interior colors in spray cans. They have a color chart and they will order it (Next Day availability). It just so happened that they had two cans of the exact color I needed. $9 a can.
You may be able to find something about it on the Web.

Update: I used it on the door panels and the sunvisors. It goes on REAL nice. It's probably just about as good as you can get. And one can was enough to do the two large door panels and the sunvisors.
