Paint prep interior
I bought a set of used halo panels that need to be painted to match my interior. What is the best way to clean and prep these prior to paint? I want to make sure the interior paint adheres correctly. Thanks.

Here is a link to the SEM instructions for their ColorCoat for vinyl and plastics.

I've always just used a straight non petroleum degreaser like pruple or 88 or a citrus and used a small bristle brush and rinsed well with water, then wiped liberally with lacquer thinner. Never had any failures or fisheyes in the paint.
