Also this is really good at promotoing adhesion. Even though all my attempts on painting my interior never went the way I wanted (messed up on sanding texture away), I always had good adhesion thanks to this....

Basically way I was told to use it is spray the part with that first, wait like 4 secs then do a light coat of paint. Then regular coats after the first about 30secs later. I found that stuff at an automotive paint shop

^Keeping the original texture and look is one of my main goals also. I was hoping to lightly sand the hard plastic console, and then go over it with enamel. I think that the original texture might be replaced with the Rustoleum's bumpy texture.
I really want to paint all of the parts at the same time, including door panels and dash. The reason why I'm not leaning towards vinyl die is because I would like to fix scratches and a crack in my dash before painting, probably with bondo or wood glue.
I also would like to keep away from spray paint due to it's thin layering. I would like to use Rustoleum oil based because of its thickness, durability, and easy repairs.
