Painted Door Vinyl
#1
Hello!

Last year the black door vinyl was ripped and peeling on the 1.8 so I took one of them off and replaced it with black gloss vinyl I got off ebay. Did the trick once I had used ethanol to remove all the sticky crap it left behind. Its a farily tedious task though and cutting the right shape is a pain and cutting a straight line for the back of the door never looks good as original.

i know you can get the OEM vinyl precut from peugeot for something like £12.
but what would it be like to paint it?

I presume as long as you mask off the top and bottom properly you would get a crisp line but what would it be like painting on the existing paint? Last thing you really want to be doing is sanding off the OEM paint D:

Just an idea anyway! Thoughts?

ah yep. thats the spray it rubber paint stuff isnt it? gokod idea and then if it messes up i can peel it off! Big Grin

For the inside of the doors obviously have to mask it off a bit but i could always use a scalpal to make a fine line and then peel off the extra bits.

god idea! thanks mark! Any idea how many cans i need for just doors? 2 would be more thane nough i would have thought!

One.

Dipyourcar.com on YouTube. Watch a few vids no need to mask anything bar the top line.

Spray, then on the finally coat remove the top masking and it should leave a crisp line need about 4 layers of dip so maybe two cans just to be safe.

Then plastidip uk for the cans.
