Paint for interior plastic on R60
I would like to refresh some of the plastic interior panels on my 2012 Countryman (R60). I found a lot of companies offering oem color interior paints however I cant find any for the Minis. Has anyone found the exact match interior plastic paints for the Minis (in spray cans)? Thanks in advance for any help.

Better late than never...I was in a local automotive paint store today looking at the SEM product line for on leather. Have used SEM before and the results look close to new if you take your time. While in the store SEM does carry interior vinyl stray designed to be used on car interiors. I did find my colors for both the leather seats (coco brown) and the vinyl colors. See if a paint specialty store carries SEM and they are fantastic at matching.

I just finished dying the all the vinyl and plastic in my 1987 Monte Carlo from dark red to black. I used Duplicolor Vinyl and Fabric paint. It is actually a dye and it bonds deep into the plastic. It is incredible as long as you prep the material well. It is not paint on top of the material, it is actually in the material so there is no build up or loss of texture. You have to use it different that paint. Light coats all the way through the process. I used Flat Black which gave it a beautiful satin look. If you put it on too heavy it will dry absolutely flat. You can spot it on a light spot and it blends completely.
