plastic and vinyl interior colors

A lot of the interior plastic and vinyl trim have changed color from blue to a greenish tint over the years and some others need replacing. There are a lot of reproduction trim pieces like seat belt anchor covers that only come in black and the catalogs say to color.paint to match the interior color. I'm looking for a recommendation as to make and color name for a spray paint to match my 68 Cutlass S blue interior, body tag trim code 953. Thanks

Vinyl dye, which can also be used to re-color plastic items, is usually only available in quart cans from paint suppliers.
However, a Preval paint sprayer can be used to "spray can" it on.

You should also look up SEM. They have a line of paints that come in factory interior colors.
the paint seems to work well and stay on. I’ve used it a lot on my 65 restore

Charlie Jones, THANK YOU for this tip. I need to get a mix dye for my 79 Cutlass Calais with the Camel Tan interior. SEM's Palamino is too light and their other colors are too dark. This kit will enable me to buy the correctly mixed dye from a supplier and do the job myself.

Much Appreciated!

The PIM lists the interior paint colors and formulas. I got interior paint for the plastics in my 69 Cutlass wagon from TCP Global.
