I did my doorhandles, window switches and plastic seat trim a couple of weeks ago and was very happy with the results. All you need is some sand paper and a can of black spray paint. Will save yourself a pretty penny! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

T3LLIOTT Posted February 24, 2015 Report Share Posted February 24, 2015 TELLIOT, post up your window switches, would love to see what you've doneOkay window switches weren't the best I'll admit, as they were all a bit naff before I started, so it won't give you a good picture! But the handles and other plastics... Will get pics later Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
T3LLIOTT Posted February 24, 2015 Report Share Posted February 24, 2015 i dont really trust myself tbh hahaha i have a spare top dash piece so i might practice on that oneTbh, only the window switches are a pain! Just practice on your spare piece and see what you think. I practiced on my spare handles and they came up really well so just used them Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Reedo Posted February 24, 2015 Author Report Share Posted February 24, 2015 fair enough what grit sand paper did you use? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
T3LLIOTT Posted February 24, 2015 Report Share Posted February 24, 2015 Not sure on the exact numbers, but I bought a pack with different grades. At the start I used a fairly adhesive one to get the rubbish off, then used really fine paper to just nicely smooth it all. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

T3LLIOTT Posted February 24, 2015 Report Share Posted February 24, 2015 T3LLIOTT, post up your window switches, would love to see what you've doneHere you are Skezza, couple of pictures of the black plastics. The second is a little mucky, so ignore that! Might do around the door handle and possibly the middle section where the handbrake is.
