Thought I'd show you my attempt at using the halfords vinyl spray on my dash. Like you Andrew, I tried all manner of cleaning products on it to no success at all. The dash has been accumulating dust in the body shop for the past year (& the past 30 in the car..) You can see how patchy the colour was in the first picture;Andrew 2.8i wrote:Hi,
I've tried (almost) every product available to try to restore discoloured dashboard material, but nothing seems to work. I hope Rob keeps us posted with details if his attempt to repaint is successful. If it turns out even half as good as Nick's repair, I'm sure he'll be pleased.
Gave the entire dash 5 light coats of vinyl spray & its come up looking like new. Obviously took the finished shots under electric light so it looks more shiny (& darker) than it actually is. Coverage goes on well, took Nicks advice using light coats & built up colour gradually;
Well pleased with results. As soon as I figure out the mess of radio wiring I can refit it along with ford radio & uncut dash.
It did Nick. Cheers for the initial postFordoholic Nick wrote: Good Luck Rob. Hope it turns out ok for you.
