I have used this with great results. Avaliable in rattle can also.

Concur with the above recommendation.  This paint was used on the interior and engine bay of 6S1487 with excellent results.  Be sure to wait a few days before assembly of components.

I used Rustoleum BBQ Black 30-40 years ago before a "restoration" alternative was available. It had the right flat/gloss sheen.

As always, if your going with rattle cans, make sure all of them you purchase are from the same paint batch. This should be shown in the printing on the bottom of the can

Thanks RBwill and NC Trackrat.  The SEM Trim Black worked and looks great.  What a perfect match.  Thanks again for the tip!!
