Title: Vinyl Dying And Repairs
Post by: HeliMike on October 04, 2006, 12:35:08 AM

Just wondering if anybody locally does custom-mixed interior vinyl dye?
I'm going to need to re-spray my dash pad (in red to match the interior) for my wagon after it gets repaired.
I guess that's my second question... who repairs cracked dash pads? Nothing major at all. I got extremely pissed off one day ( :rolleyes: ) and punched my dash pad and just cracked it a bit around the clock. Other than that the dash is mint and defenitely worth repairing.

Hey dude,there are places that will mix vinyl dye in a spray can for you. As long as you prep it well it should hold up quite well. I go to a place in Langley but its too early in the morning for me to remember the name. As far as your dash pad goes, it all depends on how bad it is.

Tim at New Creations Vinyl repair rocks! He's done all the dashes around our shop that have needed repair. Good repairer and good pricing!

Thanks guys. Hey Brian when ya get yer head outta yer butt and remember the name of that place let me know  :P
And the pad's actually in really nice shape. The crack is only visible from a couple feet away and you have to really know it's there to spot it. It just reminds me every time I look at it so I want to seal the crack before it spreads.
