Colour Change the console & dash

[jojackson4]

I'm thinking of two toning the interior. Changing the centre console & dash to navy blue (currently all grey). Can anybody recommend what products best to use.

Console & dash are vinyl

Look up furiture clinic, I think most of the interior refurb and re-colouring you see in the posts have been done using their products and are very helpful on the phone.

pretty good results, not sure about the steering wheel. Wouldn't mind having a bash at mine it is dark blue and ? oatmeal or biscuit.. looks like a custard cream, would prefer a lighter cream.

not quite as yellow as it appears but u get the idea.



be interested in the results Peter.

un related .... has the ECU mate shown anything useful ?

In contrast, I love the steering wheel! Did you do the sun visors as well? Where did you get the product?

I like it too and I'm not usually a fan of coloured wheels.

I like the colour of my interior, blue and magnolia (I think), but it’s looking grubby and tired. Lots of creases and dirty. I think I’ll get in contact with Furniture Clinic, as I’ve no idea what I need! Would I need to remove all the interior, or can it be cleaned up/reconditioned in situ?

The wife is finding out what's involved today (fernicher clinic) and ordering up what they say hopefully it will be done or not so far off buy the weekend
The carpets are nearly done the 2 tins of dye shoud be here today

This is who I used. Very helpful. Yes I did the visors also, clean vinyle and wipe with meths and when dry it leaves slightly grippy to the touch.Apply 3 coats of Gliptone ScuffMaster about 30 mins between coats in the warm weather or garage

Good luck

It does look good and there is no doubt the amount of work you're doing on you Chim.

But for someone so handy on their car, you do need to learn how to rotate photos.

Well done.
