yes, I'd use a primer first, several coats of black, and then a clear coat or two to finish it off

Rattle can is another name for spray can.

Try to find some vinyl spray paint if you can, most car accesory stores have it. It will turn out better than regular spray paint.

Unless you're going for that custom interior look, in that case, sand it down, clean it very well, lay some fiberglass and paint however you choose.

I rattled Canned my Altima Dash and it turned out decent it has lasted for 3 years so far and hasnt even faded or peeled yet

I just some minor sanding then layed down 2-3 coats of primer , then 3 coats for the base color, then 1-2 coats of clear....
I did it this way so it would be durable

use bulldog ahesive promoter. It will give your paint better contact and flex.
