Sorry to hijack your thread.

There were several threads here a couple of years ago about flaking door pockets. I suppose you could paint them as CLB suggested, but since that involves sanding them down before you start, you might want to look at this solution, which also involves sanding, and see if it works for you.

Here's one of the threads on door pockets:
Replacing "Flaking" Interior Door Pocket Lids

You might also take a look at Pedro's page. There is a section on recovering the door pockets. You might like the look better than paint.

Just another option for you to explore.
