Remove, clean, primer, paint, clear coat optional. Key is to allow each coat to fully dry before adding another coat on. Many thin layers will work best, do not go too thick or it will run and take you even longer to do/fix. Make sure to clean parts with alcohol or other cleaning agent. Wait until it's dry and primering it is important or paint will chip easily. Other than that it's pretty easy. In my opinion though, i'm kind of tired of my painted interior and am going back to factory black myself.

can we actually get like an article on this?
i dont even know how to remove it
and like what kind of paint works best

Ok sounds like a fun idea, i'll do a write up this week with pictures. I'll have to buy new paint anyways becuase i'm tired of my color.
Haha give me some more time, school and work have been killing me. I'll try to do it Friday morning if you can wait that long haha.

Ok i got bored and did that How-To article thing. It's already posted, just though i'd let you know.
Depending on what color you use.....

When i sprayed my dash white, i used the vinyl spray from Home Depot..... worked perfectly.... just clean the dash with a surface cleaner and spray light coats. spray lights coats. The more light coats you do will make it look better and wont blister and fisheye......
