Plastic Dash Trim Crack Repair ?

[Kerry]

Wonder if anyone has any experience in repairing cracks in the dash-top / plastic trim. Have a small crack that about an inch long and 2mm wide. I know people like dents away advertise the service (also note they do not give a price on the website) so it must be possible - any advice most welcome

There are some mobs that sell a kit with plastic goop the colour of the dash plastic#, plus vinyl(?) you press on during the set, which puts the wrinkly pattern in.

Some time ago Idid a few spots on my dash with reasonable results.

Can't remember the brand/manufacturer (sorry). (I blame old age.)

 

# black makes it pretty easy to match.

I've used this repair kit from Frost to successfully repair a split in the black vinyl dash top on my GT6. It's been there more than 10 years and still looks fine.

Also used the "goop" repair stuff.. Got mine from Amazon.. Worked OK but definitely not perfect.. Quite hard to get right on large repairs..
