95 dash pad revamp
well i've been annoyed by my cracked dashpad since i got my truck, so after some research on how to get it out, i removed it today. At about 9 pm i started to peel the vinyl off of it using a heat gun and a straight screwdriver. After i removed all of the vinyl, i scuffed over the foam to make the surface a little course. I then applied resin to it, the layed two layers of torn pieces of matte on it. For the third layer, i layed one large uniform piece. Tomorrow I'll be able to apply body filler and smooth it out. I plan to paint it red, and if anyone replies to my post on the whole dash shell removal, then i will redo all of the interior. If this turns out good then i will fiberglass the whole interior black, silver and red. here are some random pics. i will update as I go along
