Dashboard paints  

Among the car paints for car parts, there are different areas on the dashboard of a car : the horizontal « soft » plastic areas under the windshield, the matte or satin plastic areas near the meters, and the areas of the center console and interior doors, sometimes with wood-like imitations.

A car paint for dashboard is applied to restore the appearance of these materials to new. In restoring the material of a dashboard, it is most often a matter of replacing a raw plastic with a clearcoat, while keeping the original appearance of this plastic.

We offer a very interesting choice of professional products to renovate these parts. Quite different from simple plastic renovators, which are nothing more than waxes or silicones with temporary effects, we offer the following permanent paints and varnishes that produce very high quality finishes:

The « peach skin effect » or « gum effect » are two bi-component polyurethane clearcoats, quite surprising, the first one thanks to its very soft touch effect, reminiscent of velvet, and the second one, for its touch giving a feeling of rubber

If necessary, we invite you to consult the tutorial "How to paint a car dashboard or console?".

  Car paint for Dashboard : what other painting solutions ?

  • Matte and satin clearcoats : they create smooth, even surfaces with gloss levels ranging from 2 to 20°. In their range, they represent the most solid on the market. They are also particularly well adapted to plastics and easy to apply.

  • The vermiculated paint : it is a paint, not a clearcoat. It creates a wrinkled effect, a very distinctive effect. The small inconvenience of this coating is that it must be baked to give a good result, which implies a dismantling of the parts and a resistance of these to at least 60°C.

  • Hydro dipping : this is a process involving different steps. The primed parts are printed by dipping in water with pre-printed films. With this technique, woodwork, carbon fiber and many other effects can be achieved.

  Before applying these solutions, it is necessary to prepare the surfaces before applying the clearcoats or dashboard paints. The work consists of dusting and degreasing.

  The application of a plastic primer is a good thing, but in the field of car paint for dashboard, it is absolutely not imperative, because these areas undergo little contact and the car paints do not peel off by themselves ! All of the above mentioned dash paint solutions show excellent adhesion to plastic.

  The plastic primer

  It is a transparent liquid, as fluid as water. It allows the cohesion between the plastic surface and the car paint. This adhesion is not easy because most plastics are totally impermeable to different types of paint. This product is applied in an ultra-thin coat. There is no need to apply a thick coat of product, indeed the opposite !

  The important thing is to apply the clearcoat or the final paint very quickly after the application of the primer on the dashboard, so that the different coats blend together.
