Re: dashpad refreshening?
I once bought a new one for an 82 GMC that I owned.
It came in a natural gray color, and I had it dyed.
Looked great, held up well for the 4 years I owned it afterwards.

Why is it that there's seldom time to fix it right the first time, but there's always time to fix it right the second time???
That's not an oil leak

if your going to use the spray can stuff you have to use the adhesion promoter to make it stick and stay on the viynl.
