Door Panel renew
2 Attachment(s)
Bought these at the local pick-a-part a few years ago for $10 each. They were in good shape, each of them had an extra hole where the previous owner added an additional screw. Also one panel had a very small burn/melt flaw where someone probably drop a cigarette and burned it.
I scrubbed them both down with a 1/1 mixture of hot water and simple green and a hard bristle carpet brush. Wiped them down with grease and wax remover and they looked splotching from the chemical. So I did another round of Simple Green and hot water. After they dried they looked much better so I spray down the areas for repair with a coat of SEM plastic adhesion promoter let that flash and then a few coats of SEM texture spray. Before the texture was dry I blotted it with a wrinkled up piece of saran wrap to simulate the existing texture for the repair area which was only about 1/4 of inch square. Next after the texture dried I sprayed both panels with SEM adhesion promoter and let it flash. Followed by three coats of SEM color coat. I am very happy how they turned out and will be installing in the next couple of days. SEM products have it down to a science and make it look like new again. I am a big fan of there system.

They look good. Thanks for the post. I was wondering about those products and the different steps needed.

Re: Door Panel renew
The pictures look a little like there is a gloss to it, I think the garage lighting did that. The black I used is more of a satin to match really well with factory items like my new black buddy bucket seat covers. When I put it next to them the sheen looks right.
