Tips please - painting gauge bezels.....

[Nosh]

I am halfway thru my cockpit refurb - and just dry fitted my dash (see below) - I think it good so far.

However, now the bezels look chipped etc - anyone got any tips for refurbing these, please??

Here is the dry fit dash - lower dash panel has been refreshed and steering cowl is also coloured - all from the same medium kit from FC.



Thanks in advance

Took the plunge - spent a lot of time masking the glass and case - gentle rub all over the bezel with 600 grit paper - two light coats of etch primer - two light coats of gloss black - very happy with the results (only held up by a very welcome visit from pmanson for a cuppa):-



Just masked up the other smaller gauges...

Big day tomorrow - pretty much will be putting everything back in the cockpit, and hopefully will finish the job with those beautiful badges from TimJa.

Fingers crossed no problems...

PS - and it will be good to see the seats finally back in the car and 'She' can have the breakfast bar back!!

Nice work Nosh, like the look of the steering cowl, mines already color coded as my interior is boring Black already.
