At LMR.com, we make choosing your interior paint an easy process. We offer the perfect interior paints for your specific restoration project. LMR.com has you covered if you are looking for a small touch-up or even a complete interior color change. Check out our how to paint Mustang interior article to learn how to use the kits listed below.


LMR.com Paint Mixed In-House

At LMR.com, we go above and beyond regarding our interior paint. Since we mix all our paints in-house, we can constantly test and offer industry-leading quality assurance for our customers. These interior paint systems are blended with quality SEM brand toners to provide you with the truest and closest matches to your factory color code possible. Flexing agents are added to the paint, allowing you to spray this on all hard and flexible interior surfaces for ultimate versatility! 

At LMR, we stand behind our paint products with industry-leading support. If you ever encounter an issue, rest assured that our LMR-branded paints are backed by a 90-day warranty against defects in materials and workmanship. While proper surface prep and application are key to a successful finish, our team is here to help should any concerns arise.


Preparation Is Key!

For a professional, long-lasting paint job on interior plastics, proper surface preparation is essential. SEM and LMR offer a range of solutions to ensure excellent paint adhesion. Use SEM Sand Free Adhesion Promoter for ABS, PVC, and similar plastics where sanding is difficult. Its wet-on-wet application melts color into the substrate for a strong bond. For polypropylene, olefin, and TPO plastics, SEM Adhesion Promoter provides a reliable grip without surface distortion. Before painting vinyl surfaces like dash or armrest pads, SEM Vinyl Prep & Cleaner removes contaminants and promotes adhesion by softening the surface. Finish the prep with our Gray Sealer Paint, a primer that fills light abrasions and provides a factory-matched base coat for hard plastic and bare metal parts, ideal for touch-ups or full interior revamps.
