hi guys just wandered is there any companys out there that can re-colour a sapphire dash? ive got an imaculate one but its in light grey and it need to be dark grey to go with my leather etc or is there any products out there i can use? i want to keep with the original finnish and i dont want it to flake off!

cheers

 

I used some flexible vinyl paint from halfords a few years back to paint a mk3 astra dash from grey to black. Worked brilliantly, wouldn't scratch off with a finger nail or anything, would deffo recommend it!

cheers rich someone else said something about this too - does it dry shiney or matt?

cheers

 

not fancy flocking it ?

 

that was the first thought that came to mind but i want to keep inside original

 

I'm changing my saph dash to a black one, and I was going to try and paint my ecu cover with RS emblem to black to match!
Cheers shaun

 

used the halfords type.it is very good but is very shiney only problem i have with it is it looks a greeny grey in certain lights.the best stuff by a long way is by a firm called image.they have a ford charcoal grey then combined with their matt laquer is brillant.its sold mainly by car paint merchants and is on ebay also

 

I didn't find the halfords stuff too shiny, I think it depends on what you are spraying on to though, if you are painting something smooth then it will shine a lot more than painting something with some texture.
