Best Dash Board Paint

Post by AnnieApple57 »

Before I put the dash board back in after replacing the heater blower I want to tidy it up and give it some fresh paint. But what is the best paint to use? I've the brown dash board and want to keep it as similar as possible.

Any ideas please?

Clean with soapy water and non scratch washing up pad. Final wipe with clutch/brake cleaner. I did mine with rattle can in black non gloss to prevent reflection. After two summers it flaked off with exposure to direct sunshine. It will last longer if you keep dash shaded in my opinion.
Good luck
