    What color is the Blazer? Green, Red, Black, whatever. I got a book that lists all interior colors and codes. If it is green or whatever I can tell you what was used that year with green paint. There maybe a whole lot of different colors on a blazer, but usually just a few interior colors.

    Well friend, I am sorry to say that I am not much help. I found three colors used with that two tone combo. code 16 wa148b (this one is almost to white) code 67 wa102e and code 65 wa101e (I think its this one) these are all close to what it looks like on MY monitor at work. Paint store will have chips to look at. Or... this is a awesome site I think its something like http://www.tcpglobal.com/autocolorlibrary/ try that site its fun to look through for colors and stuff. You can see the chips I am talking about on there.

    I've painted interior parts a few times and have had less than stellar results using the spray cans....their color pallets are hardly ever right. I tried the SEM stuff on my bezel this weekend and the color was ridiculously off from SEM's own pallet so I'm giving up and am going to have a part color matched like I did last time. It's only slightly more expensive, I can spray it on with a real gun, and it will compensate for any fading that might have occurred. I should have done that the first time.

    Personally, I'd rather pay to have it done over rattle-canning it. The fading will come from the quality of paint, and the UV protection in/on it. The flaking would be either from bad prep, bad prime, or not using a plasticizer in the paint/primer.
    Play with it, 'til it's broke.

    Yeah, and sem stuff vinyl dye. What he is painting is hard plastic. It doesn't require dye. Dye is also harder to spray and its going to eventually come off( even with adhesion promoter). I am not a fan of the stuff either. Its just a good CHEAP fix. Thats not really that cheap anymore. The great thing about letting someone else do it is they have to fix it when it messes up because of years worth of armor all thats on it.

    Probably will not be that expensive to get done.
