to spray interior you need to buy a primer, the paint and a lacquer. You also need some fine sandpaper, or wet-and-dry paper. Start by using the sandpaper on whatever you are spraying, to remove any dirt and give the surface a texture the paint can stick to properly. Next, use a primer as an undercoat. If you go to halfords they have a book tellin you wht colour primer is best for the colour of the paint you will use. Once you've primed the surface, then u can spray it with the colour you want, make sure you dont spray too much as it will run, just do a few light coats until you've got the colour how you want. Once its dried, use laquer to protect the paintwork, and make the surface have a shine to it.
Thats all there is to it reali :Y:

i take it your talking about your centre console and vents speakers grilles etc? grey plastic primer is best. once you take out console its best to wash it (with ALL electrics out of course) in some fairy liquid and warm water then dry it using a hairdryer or something! this gets rid of ALL grease and polish etc.

lightly sand down. couple of thin layers of grey plastic primer leave about 3o mins between coats. leave for an hour or so after final coat and then add your colour in LIGHT coats as said already! then once your happy with colour leave until its dry. a good few hours. then a thin layer of clear laquer (be carefully its very thin and runny!). then leave 24 hours before refitting into car!

hope this clears up!
