Do you apply the paint with a brush?

Yes, used long haired soft brush. It needs at least two layers to fade all brush strokes.

You can use spray gun to apply this brand, but brush makes less mess...

I´m going to paint the rest of interior some day by paint gun... some sunny summer day...

Story continues...
Concord seats are out and started to fix parcel shelf... Previous owner had it made of plywood and some strange fur coated vinyl...



There were large loudspeaker holes... 



Concord cardboard is a little bit too big. 



Removed parts...

A piece of hardboard and a white vinyl were needed to creat new parcel shelf



First layer of leather paint.


Then I painted that fiberglass twice and vinyl four times...



Testing...


One wire was missing and I found it.


Right side first...



Then it was time for driver seat. 


Job done... it took almost  four years, but now it is finished.
