dash

Post by mjrpaine » Mon Jul 01, 2013 7:04 pm

Has anyone else had this problem? It looks and feels like a rubber coating peeling off my dash. The part that is peeling is a flat black and the one under I this a shiny black ...

I have that on mine too. I believe it is vinyl paint. I plan on removing the top of the dash, wet sanding it lightly with 600 grit wet/dry sandpaper and respraying it, probably with duplicolor vinyl/fabric paint. If I can't match the interior then I'll be painting the center console, the pillars, and probably the center dash section / control panel bezel.

That would be the vinyl paint peeling. I tried duplicolor spray but i got tiger stripes so i used plastidip. had it for about 2 months and its still holding up strong

I just peeled it all off. Looks good but it is annoying in the sun!
Find a replacement on the junkyard...

Thankfully this has only been limited to my airbag cover.

Please keep you peeling ass dash cover cars away from mine! Shit's probably contagious! :lol:
