The interior of the contemporary car salon has many plastic elements. When operating, scratches, cracks and other defects occur on them. This worsens the appearance of the car's salon. At the same time, restoring the interior elements is easy to perform with your own hands. Next, I will tell you about possible ways of restoration.

Painting is the most efficient way to repair plastic. With proper operations, the car's salon will look like a new one. But this method and the most time consuming. First of all, when performing the work, you will need a spacious boxing in your own hands, in which it will be possible to place the elements of the cabin of the car from plastic for painting. A close garage for these purposes is not suitable.

In the room you need to spend thorough cleaning, wash it away from dust and dirt, so as to prevent them from entering the surface of the parts after staining. You can use a different suitable place. For example, at the cottage under the canopy. Then it should be waiting for dry and windless weather. Otherwise, painting can be spoiled by the wind with dust.

Repair of plastic auto painting requires several operations with every detail: cleaning parts from dirt, dust and fat, primer, putty, sanding, painting, lacquer coating. Therefore, all parts of the interior of the car from plastic is required to dismantle. Perform all of the above operations is otherwise impossible.

When removing parts from the car, you need to be careful, as they can be easily damaged. Especially suffering when dismantling fasteners of details: clips, latches, pistons. To avoid this, it is recommended to purchase a special set for removing the interior elements made of polyurethane.

After removing the item, it is necessary to carefully launder and clean. In addition to wiping with a wet rag, cleaning from fat is needed using a cleaner. The cleaner must be neutral and dissolve plastic. Otherwise, its appearance will only worsen. You can recommend White spirit or its analogue.

The next step of repairing with your own hands is the primer. But there is one nuance here. On some types of plastic you can do without this operation. As a result, a significant amount of time and money is saved. Determine it is easy. It is enough to get a small piece of plastic, taking it in a place imperceptible to the eyes, and carry out the following operations: set fire and quit into the water. If when burning smoking and in water sinks - you can do without the process of priming. And, if it burns, not kid, and pops up in water, it will be necessary to purchase soil and perform primer.

Soil and paint preferably acquire from one manufacturer. It will be a guarantee of good adhesion (clutch) paints with a primed surface.

After applying the soil into one or two layers, which is performed using a spray or brush, the details must be dried. Drying time is determined by weather conditions and is indicated in the instructions for primer.

Then, those elements of the cabin car that have cracks and scratches are required to sharpen. This type of repair requires termination. The putty usually consists of two components that are mixed before applying. After mixing the finished putty, you must apply on the surface for 5-6 minutes. After this time, it begins to thick and grout scratches and cracks should be stopped. Otherwise, roughness is formed, which will have to eliminate the emery skirt for a long time. However, without repairing seriously damaged surfaces, do not do.

After drying, the primed surface is polished with a sandpaper waterproof skin with a graininess of 300-400 using water, which will ensure the best result. Then again the parts are dried and ground. For the purpose of better grip, you can use the surface of the surface with a zero emery skirt. After that, you can already start directly to painting.

Collecting paint can be performed in three ways: from the can, with a paint, manually brush.

Caller before use must be thoroughly shake to achieve the uniform distribution of the coloring pigment. It is necessary to place the canister at such a distance from the detail so that the drums are not formed, and the paint was distributed everywhere equally. It is desirable to apply at least two layers of paint. This will give a uniform shade over the entire surface of the part. After applying each layer, drying is required according to the instructions on the paint.

When using collapse, you can use acrylic paint. It has better qualities compared to paint in the canister. However, the paintopult may not be at all, but to acquire it for one-time painting is irrational.

Painting manually with a brush requires certain skills and skills. However, when repairing small elements of the interior without brush, it is not necessary, since the canister and the paintopult will be ineffective in this case. Paints on a bruster need to take not very much. Then the paint is evenly frozen on the surface. It provides good adhesion.

The final stage of repair with painting is the application of a special protective varnish, which are most often exposed to external influence. The layers of this varnish must be at least two. It should be noted that when performing such a repair, it is necessary to paint all the elements of the car interior. Otherwise, the difference in the appearance between the painted and unpainted parts of the car interior will be noticeable.

Feathering

This type of repair of the car's salon with your own hands will also require dismantling the elements of the interior subject to a drawing. Details removed must be cleaned, wash away from dirt. Then the final cleaning of the surfaces from fat using the cleaner is performed. As mentioned above, the cleaner should not dissolve the material of the details.

The leather purchased in advance or the leatherette is exhibited by contour of the parts of the parts with a small margin of several centimeters. The glue is applied to the surface of the details and the inner side of the leatherette (skin). Flashing technology depends on the type of glue and is indicated in the glue instructions.

Operation by pasting should be performed quickly, straightening the leatherette and removing air bubbles, in strict accordance with the instruction. Otherwise, after pouring the glue, eliminate the shortcomings will be very difficult. Tearing the leatherette or skin can lead to them.

The edges of the leatherette (skin) are separated and glued on the inside of the part. In the case when these parts are pregnated very close to each other, the conveying can prevent the installation of parts into place. Then simply produce trimming of the leatherette (skin) along the contour of the element.

Oklayka

Performance of the interior of the car using pasta is similar to the previous case. It will also require thorough preparation of the elements of the auto cabin, including dismantling. It will be necessary to wash away from dirt and dust, clean the surface of the surface from fat by means of a cleaner, which does not destroy our plastic.

Then we cut the film under the size of the element with a small margin so that the edges can be wrapped. The film can be under carbon or other color you need.

Having done the desired cutting film for each embedded element of the auto interior, removes the protective layer from it and we have an adhesive layer up. After that, imposes the desired element on top of the film, and we produce pre-gluing. By placing the film in detail, we take in the hands of a construction hairdryer, plastic spatulas and produce the final shrinkage of the film under the action of a hot jet of air. Smoothing and removal of air bubbles is performed by plastic spatulas. The edges bend on the inside of the part and are also well warmed.

Such a film successfully hides scratches and other auto interior defects. Despite this, before pasting the surface of parts having defects, it is necessary to align with the emery skirt.

Grinding with warming

Repair Details Auto need to wash and clean the degreasing means. Scratches are sandwiched, and then heated with a construction hairdryer. Plastic softened and defects are delayed. The plus is that the details do not need to be dismantled with the car. When heating, caution should be taken, otherwise plastic can flow.
