Pics welcome a mate of mine sprayed the dash on his supercharged vw golf.....looked ace but depends on what colour you choose i guess. he used crackle effect plastie coat blue. a good effect but you have to remove the dash/rub down for key. plastic primer n plastic paint it otherwise it will just peel off.

gingergman Posted January 12, 2011 Share Posted January 12, 2011 plastic primer and plastic paint, dont use a glossy colour tho as you will get glare when the suns out and off street lights at night. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
LeeMcCarthy Posted January 12, 2011 Author Share Posted January 12, 2011 I think I might just go a darker colour to what it already is to be honest, just want it to look a bit more tidier Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
gingergman Posted January 12, 2011 Share Posted January 12, 2011 another thing to remember is it wont match the rest of the interior like door cards etc so might look odd depending on the colour Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
LeeMcCarthy Posted January 12, 2011 Author Share Posted January 12, 2011 I was just going for a slightly darker colour, the dash i have now is all scratched Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest Alanman Posted January 12, 2011 Share Posted January 12, 2011 I did mine. It was done in the cab but the window was out. Looked good and has lasted fine. I thought it might scratch easy but its been fine even in the pocket at top of dash. I DIDNT use plastic primer. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Guest Alanman Posted January 13, 2011 Share Posted January 13, 2011 Simply use aerosol cans. lol. I made sure the dash was totally clean and dry. Any polish or grease would have ruined the painting. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
