Painting door panels
The top part of my door panels on my 2013 Lariat are fading from the Arizona sun so what's the best type of paint to use.

IMHO, Urethane with a catylist is the best in durability and ease of application...but you will need a respirator to spray this because it is very toxic.

You want a dye for plastic. Several makers, use a prep spray. Try Eastwood or Summit racing.

Sourcing used panels is a lot easier and will look a lot better.

Only thing I have ever used is SEM products for this type of job.
They also make a wash & promoter before you use the dye.

How do you match the Ford tan Lariat color, I don't want to do the whole panel just the top down to a seam.
