Everything looked absolutely perfect for a month.
Covering dash with vinyl.
I attached the vinyl to the bare aluminum dash with 3m super 77 spray adhesive.
On the fingers where the ends of the vinyl folded over curved edges of the aluminum i used weldwood contact cement.
This is the only archived pick i have.
Carefully lay out the vinyl and then lay the dash on top.
A heavy weather resistant vinyl such as marine grade fabric works best for most vehicles.
Then plasti dipped the air vent covers with gun metal grey.
I used paint stirrers and clamps along the entire edges of the dash until dry.
Follow on social media for more cool projects.
Lightly stretch the vinyl or leather over the dash rap around the edges and use adhesive on the backside edge only.
Covering your dash with vinyl fabric is an easy and effective way to protect your car and your wallet.
Re covering a dash 4883 by cale sat apr 06 2019 3 57 pm sat apr 06 2019 3 57 pm 4883 when it comes to re covering a modern dash what approach do you take.
What s note worthy about roy s approach is that he uses no seams wrapping a dash in one solid piece of vinyl for a true factory finish.
Working evenly from the centre top work the vinyl over to the revers side and staple gun the vinyl to the reverse assuming you are useing an mdf or ply premount checking for and stretching out any wrinkles on the front as you go.
Work like a captain play like a pirate.
This dash has a gash on the passenger side just above.
