i keyed the interior bits with 400 grit wet and dry, then used plastic primer. I then rubbed the primer with 800 grit, then painted the parts with conventional car body paint (smart car pink as it was for the girlfriend ) It stayed on well with no chips or cracks for over 2 years then she sold the car!!

As with any other type of painting, its all about patience and preparation.

i'll post some pictures if i can find them.

As above i done sanding, plastic primer then sanding again and a topcoat of `plastikote` in spray cans.
I finished interior door handles, heater surrounds, etc in white inside an astra mk3. the finish was tough, no chips or scraches with a nice smooth surface after months
