How to Colour your own dashboard

[everblur]

I saw ACE hardware selling a mini spray gun without compression for less than RM50. It doesn't require an air compressor to function.

[everblur]

Try other ACE hardware stores. I remember I was looking for a particular item and it was only available in some branches.

Can someone that already bought this dye from the ACE hardware give an exact location of the store that sell it?

What about ottercolor ? The label specifically mentioned it can be used for dasboard and also soft tops for convertible. No peeling, no flaking. Available in some Petronas Stations. (e.g. TTDI )

i wonder what do u all mean by spray the dashboard?do u guys spray the plastic (hard) part or the soft part (got kinda cushion underneath it)..

I got the experience. I used it since 2 years ago and it is still ok.Just buy the plastic sealant and spray it before u paint with another colour. I spray my dashboard with anchor brand and it look real like GTi or Wira SE black dashboard. just call or sms me 0166035994.u can save budget....selamat mencuba...

what brand plastic sealant? does it really works? just spray the whole dashboard without taking it out?

I 've read in hot4's magazine, they use vinyl spray to colour their dashboard usually brand VHT. where can we get one here??? anybody know???

You can get dye at west springfield auto parts. Its made by dupont. It works great. It is sprayed on with a piant sprayer. I did the hard parts, doors etc. hope this helped. later :)

dont spray your dashboard!

:retarded: haiyaa...dont do this...if you want change your color dboard, it will looking suck at 6 month later or maybe early. if u spray using normal spray can it will scrath. Use only vinyl spray!.
Ottercolor suck, dont buy it. They good for old black rubber bumper and also good for tyre only, cannot paint at pvc, vinyl and plastic.

FOR BETTER RESULT, WRAP YOUR DASHBOARD WITH PVC OR VINLY OR LEATHER, CHOOSE YOUR FAV. COLOR. SOME 'KEDAI KUSYEN' MAKING IT.:shcokedcamo:

i didnt have a problem using the dye for my dash and it looks hot. its not a spray can which will look crappy in a few months. its what they use to spray your stuff in the manufacturing process so it will last.... take care

could someone post pictures of the plastic sealant/primer? I have a hard time finding them :(

 

[cheryl923]

I dont have any pics but i will make a list for you. You can find them at an automotive store.... ttyl,
