yeah it looks ok, it scratches easy though but I'm sure you'll make a better effort of it what with your job and all

Just thought though its not like crackle/textured finish or owt, just a normal finish, it just ends up like whatever the dash is like underneath but black

I'm not sure if that wrinkle/crackle paint is ok for plastics, especially seeing as its got to cure it, you'll just have a pool in the bottom of the oven
