Well that has to be done prior to recovering anyhows....so its no extra work really.

Yeah Steve that was the general idea...remove the cloth and just flock it. Should result in a very tidy finish as long as the board is in good condition. Cant see it being a problem getting a near oe colour match either imo.

Think I'll have to look into it when I get my dash done (due to cracks...want it done a similer grey colour again).
