Hi I bought a second hand rhino and I am customising to be a possessed vehicle with all tentacles and stuff coming out of it. The inside will be visible but the rhino is built and has not been painted. So what’s a good way to paint the inside. I’m just thinking a dark red to make it look dark and nasty in there. Doesn’t need to be detail but not grey plastic.

My instinct is to blast the inside with some spray paint. Is there a better way?

When it doubt, use grey spray.
Finish with generous wash of appropriate color (to your color scheme)

a blast of black followed by a blast of Halford's red oxide coloured primer?

Yes, I would suggest black primer then a light zenithal of a dark red spray coat (like army painter chaotic red). It will be good looking for a verry fast work.

Ok thanks, I ask because I often do things that seem obvious to me but then turn out to be big mistakes for unforeseen reasons
