Default Starting Interior Recon..Quick Question

Getting ready to dye all of my new plastic replacement parts as well as the old ones...

Going to use denatured alcohol to clean parts, prime and dye.

Do I need to prime the old parts that I'm putting a fresh coat on? Or just clean them and spray them?

Just clean them well and spray them well.

Some guys say prime them but I cleaned with soap and water then cleaned with alcohol and sprayed. Came out great, see pictures in "My Corvette Photos"
