I would like advice about painting the interior of RV10 cabin. Is a primer needed over Van's QB wash primer? Specific type of paint for finish coat? At what point in the build process is best for painting interior?

I used appliance epoxy spray can paint, no primer. It worked great, came out smooth and is holding up well after 7 years and 600 hours. Cheap and easy. I'd suggest as soon as you get the top on and panels installed is a good time.

The answer is, it depends. You'll need to consult with the top coat paint
vendor to see if the SW Wash Primer is ok or what appropriate action you'll
need to take. Each top coat paint has different requirements.

I used Sherwin Williams home paint (VOC 0) its industrial strength- easy
clean up.. I applied microballons to the paint to make it thick and fill the
voids. With a thick roller it went on quite nicely. Cheap and easy touch-up,
although I haven't needed to.. Easy to clean after curing as well.

I suggest you get at it before you install the rudder pedals, upper forward fuselage and the cabin top, as access to areas around the forward area of the floor is much easier at that point. Also, get the cabin top while it's off the plane and you can shoot down at it outside. I used a spatter paint called Zolatone, on a base of Loehle's black highbuild primer with the intention of keeping things light and not installing any upholstery anywhere other than the seats.

I used Stewart Systems primer and single part topcoat on the interior and had no problems. Very happy with the results and ease of use/cleanup.

If you decide to put in Flightline's interior (I assume you aren't),
they provide some detailed information on what needs to be painted and
what will be hidden under the interior panels.
