    paint question

    Hey, I bought the car with this on the center console.



    Anyone know what vinyl paint I can use to cover this that will match perfectly?

    go to your local paint store (NOT home depot, an actual paint retailer) and get a product called "wil-bond". It is a very caustic liquid deglosser that is used to soften paints so new paint will adhere to it. Put a little on a rag and rub on the stain. If a lot is applied, it will actually start to "melt" the plastic, but it should take the stain out without having to paint over it. Trying to match that will be damn near impossible. If all else fails, go get another center console from a parts car.
