I Have been told that the type of dash i have in the car can be painted what paint would you alll recommend im thinking it needs to be black and it will fit in with the carbon im doing everywhere else...


thinking of paint from halfords, ill try maybe a door card as its the same plastic as the dash.....

Always wanted to try the dash paint from Halfords but there is a worry that it wont look good,

Have you thought about Flocking your dash ? Im hoping to do that to mine soon

It's for the stag dave lol

That's my concern mike I'm thinking I'll just give it a go on maybe the rear door card or something but if it looks pants I'm kinda stuck with it lol

get hold of theflockshop.co.uk mate, hes the lad who did my dash and steering wheel.

top quality work and a very reasonable price, doesnt cost much to post either if you want to post the stuff to him, also can do it in loads of colours

Would it be hard wearing on a steering wheel stav?

Foliatec is a company who sell hard and soft plastic spray, I have used it on a chair in the tattoo studio to great effect - after 6 months of constant use it started to wear a bit but we use serious cleaning chemicals constantly and the chair is in use at least 6 hours every day 6 days a week. In a car this stuff would last forever!!

You need the primer, colour spray and sealer, and you must work fairly quickly but the colour is bright and very hard wearing.

Don;t buy from Demon tweeks they sell the small size for silly money!!

I have a large matt black and I think yellow and a little primer, sealer???

Hes put a lot on for the wheel and is holding up well so far, only done the 9 and 3 positions as thats where the leather was worn.
