VHT Interior Paint

VHT Interior Paint: Restoring and Customizing Your Cabin with Confidence

When most enthusiasts hear the name VHT (Very High Temperature), they immediately think of extreme-heat coatings for headers and exhaust systems — and for good reason. But VHT's engineering expertise doesn't stop at the engine bay. The brand brings that same commitment to durability and performance directly into the cabin through its focused line of interior paint products.

The VHT Vinyl Dye™ — A Flagship Interior Solution

At the heart of VHT's interior paint offering is the VHT Vinyl Dye™, a product purpose-built for automotive interior restoration and customization. VHT Vinyl Dye restores or changes the color of vinyl upholstery, seats, and trim, and also works on the "short nap" carpeting found in today's cars and boats. That breadth of coverage makes it one of the most versatile aerosol interior coatings on the market.

VHT Vinyl Dye is ideal for use on stiff or pliable vinyl, simulated leather, or plastic — meaning whether your dashboard has gone chalky or your seat bolsters are cracked and discolored, this formula is engineered to handle the job. It is ideal for use on carpet, vinyl dashboards, vinyl seats, trunk carpet, soft tops, and untreated leather in cars, boats, and other vehicles.

What Sets VHT's Interior Paint Apart

VHT's Vinyl Dye is more than just a colorant — it's a flexible coating system. The formula features a flexible, self-priming finish and is ideal for use on stiff or pliable vinyl, simulated leather, or plastic, and is extremely resistant to cracking or fading. That flexibility is critical in the cabin environment, where surfaces constantly flex from passenger movement, temperature swings, and vibration.

Application is designed to be straightforward and DIY-friendly. The easy-to-use spray nozzle ensures maximum coverage for a long-lasting finish, with the paint dry to the touch in 30 minutes and fully dried overnight — no curing required. VHT has also updated the delivery system with the EZ Touch® Conical Nozzle, which provides a wider, more even spray fan for better coverage with less effort.

A Brand with Proven Pedigree

A division of Dupli-Color and the Sherwin-Williams family, VHT literally stands for Very High Temperature and specializes in paints and coatings for high-temp applications. That heritage in extreme-condition chemistry means VHT formulates interior products with the same rigorous standards applied to engine and exhaust coatings. From their original VHT Engine Enamel, they've expanded into a variety of spray paints for exterior and interior dress-up that won't peel, flake, or chip under stress.

Whether you're refreshing a classic car's faded vinyl interior, recoloring worn seat bolsters, or giving a truck's carpet a fresh tone, VHT's interior paint products give you factory-quality results from an aerosol can.
