Guest mad xr3i owner Posted January 10, 2006 Share Posted January 10, 2006 Hi all,just got a new dash for my mk3, does anyone know what I can use to paint it. <{POST_SNAPBACK}> you can use car paint but need to put plastic coating on it first you can see in halfords it a clear coat paint to stop the plastic melting or cracking also i think i seen some paint made for plastic im sure others will tell you better Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Guest brendanj9554 Posted January 10, 2006 Share Posted January 10, 2006 nice idea, wot colour you looking at? there is some kind of vinyal on ebay, you put in over the dash and use a heat gun, it works like the heat shrick plastic, it gets all curves and stuff great iv heard, i think daz is right you may need some sort of laquar to protect from cracks brendan Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest Daz Posted January 10, 2006 Share Posted January 10, 2006 I'm not spraying it any mad colour, but good mk3 dash's are hard to find & the only one I could get is a two tone grey ghia one, just need to paint the lower half to match. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
