i jus took out my ek door panels and i cleaned them up and taped off so only the vinyl top was showing.
then i sprayed down the vinyl with some spray adheasion.
then i sprayed around 5 coats of vinyl/fabric paint and let it dry.
now the paint is kinda bumpy, not runs or anything but like rough, i dont know if i should sand it, and if i should with what grit.

also with painting vinyl should i put on a clearcoat, if so what kind of clear should i get.
