I primer my interiors and white glue will stick to primer paint real well. Also, the paper graphics will take on whatever form the seats have, even tuck and roll. Anthing. Paper is pretty thin and pliable, so it's only up to your imagination.
I think this fall I'd like to do an article on the subject.
Oh one more thing, thinking of paper materials.
I love using tissue paper on junkers and rats as torn and shredded headliners . . ..
thank you cranky i for one would love a tutorial on how to do this and i also would be interested on the headliner bit too thank you.

well craig the way i usually tint a back window is by painting the inside of the window with a dilluted flat black paint and i dillute it till it's the shade of tint i want. for example if i wanted limo tint i would paint straight from the bottle. i don't have a formula for mixing as i just do what i like but thats how i do it. now i've heard of guys using actual window tint film but i don't know how to do that or if it actually works. hope this helps and keep up the good work. oh i use junkyard windows to test my tint mix on. keep up the good work. and rommel thanks for the tip on paintt as i have bumpy paint sometimes too.

looks awesome and man what a find wish i could find something like that keep up the good work.
