V8ian Posted June 30, 2021 Report Posted June 30, 2021 With my new project, an early 60s ford, The dash top has the Vacuum formed plastic over a foam and steel core, It has the typical Vinyl cracking, a couple that are quite a big 5mm wide, these dash tops are rearer than the rocking horse excrement, so, It needs to be repaired, it will need filling and recovering with a suitable stretch vinyl, searching the new, elastic fillers for this seem to be few and far between, my thoughts are now heading towards Sikkaflex, as I intend to recover, the grain does not need to be replicated, so I am just using it as a elastic filler........ Your thought gentlemen please
BaileyMex Posted June 30, 2021 Report Posted June 30, 2021 I had the same decision to make when I was doing my Escort, I didn't find many solutions back then either. I ended up getting the dash 'Flocked' by a place down on the South coast, Worthing way from memory, wasn't ideally what I wanted, but it solved the problem and it looked a lot better than I was expecting. That could be an option perhaps?
