Appreciate this is discussed a lot but nit been able to find an answer to this question.

The latest versions of the interior appear to be some form of white ABS plastic (not clear polycarboate).

Can I get away with using the black PS5 paint on the interior or do I need to use something else?

Anyone who has done this have any tips?

Thanks.

No, you need to use Tamiya TS / AS series paint, or if you an airbrush you can use their acrylic paints.

PS paint dries grainy and Matt. Wont look good. It’s meant for clear polycarbonate
 
I painted one a while back and pretty sure I used the TS spray black, either matte or satin. Then I used Tamiya acrylic bottles to paint the guys. I also used a TS spray blue on the helmets.
