Ive fixed the same dash using fibre glass and a little bit of filler and then laid down new vinyl material with spray adhesive. Took me less than a day and two years later its still like brand new. Heaps less messy and looks better in my opinion. But good to see you lads trying different processes. Quality work all round. I would be over the moon to win this beautiful machine. I miss my r32 Nissan skyline so much since falling on hard times with family ilness and having to sell it. Who ever wins this car can rest assure that they are recieving a car that has had a great amount of love care and time put into its customization/restoration . As well as some very tasteful and expensive jdm parts. a truely stunning piece of art guys.
Your team should all be very proud of what you have and are creating. Definitely my favourite new youtube page for this year.
Loving the content and creations your turning out boys.
dude, this is sick! I been a automotive tech for 14 years and this is very impressive, well done! liked and subscribed
Great tutorial I have an idea how to fix my dash now. Perfect look for mine to. Great job.🤗🤗🤗
Until today I had no idea that you could repair a dashboard that way and leave it better than new👏🏼👏🏼👏🏼👏🏼
You boys work so well together! Love it 👌
I did this before recently. That will crack again. Guaranteed. Especially if you leave that dash out in the sun. The only way to permanently fix this is to use that cloth and fiberglass mat and cover the dash with it and resin. A more appropriate finish is SEM texture and then a vinyl dye.
perfect professional response
you are a legend
Well executed! Not many people know about this but it’s always a killer look and in this situation the best way to solve the dash problem. I want to win this car just for the quality going into this!
Very detailed how-to, can't wait to do this on my '87 FX16! Also what type of spray paint you guys used? And thanks for sharing this video
Thanks guys I loved this where it's fun to watch perfect info and well done!!
I didnt even know it was possible, great video thanks.
Love the content guys! Keep it up
You guys did a great job on the dashboard
I wish I knew this back in the days when I had an 82 VW Scirocco and then later my 90 240SX...both had cracked up dashes. This is a great solution!
Throtl ViP squad good morning Rickie and Mickey awesome video on repairing and flocking a dash 👍😊
That is amazing it came out awesome you guys gave me an idea that I never knew could do I have a dash that is cracked as well I will use the product you guys used and repair my dash ty so so much once again great video from the boys of throtl
I think this is the coolest thing I’ve ever seen! That’s so dope!
Finally!!! A video showing how to use what you got! I've priced used 06 Acura TL base dashboards and all of them were 500$++++ (with $120 bucks for shipping) I really hope this fix works as I feel like I'm running out of options aside from taking drastic measures and paying a shop some $1400 to fill the cracks and wrap my dash :( I've done an entire 2001 acura Integra GSR swap (from tan to black) but those parts weren't ridiculously expensive. But 06 acura tl parts seem to cost a crazy amount of money :( can't wait to see the finished product
Lint roller to the dash and make it nice and crispy looking. Just an idea. Might help a lot to keep it looking great.
Been training for that flocking gun your whole life hey Ricky 😉
@Osvaldo Ah wot
Get the flock outta here
I'd love to see a video of "how to make a CUSTOM dashboard". Great video, liked and subscribed.
I love doing things in my car myself and then just look and sit down to see what I did in the garage. In each step that I do, it is an experience of learning for myself . saludos dsd PR🇵🇷✌🤓✌
That was pretty interesting I’ve never seen that done before and it looks good..
Did a flock on my brothers 16v Clio track car a few months ago....such a cheap and satisfying process and comes out amazing!
I'm sure suede or Alcantara wrap would turn out much better. Flocking always looks slightly blotchy and tacky, also eventually those bits of material will fall and ages.
We're did you buy it?
Ricardo, you cam buy the kit in different sizes off Ebay, we used the mid size £30 kit for a Renault Clio Dash was easily enough
If you can apply acantara Or suede with no imperfections Kiran then all the best ....flock is fibres not sheet so cant bubbleadif yo the right sized kit offers excess which negates any inconsistencies
That was awesome,great video guys
Wou, nice job Thanks !
Fantastic i learn a lot with this video. I`m gonna make this on my suzuki samurai
Definitely want to do this to ek hatch! Love the look and feel!
That looks flockin' great! Lmao I had to.
I confess, I didn't come up with that one. I heard it first on ThatDudeInBlue's channel in a recent video when he and some friends were flocking the dash on his DC2 Integra project car.
That dash came out amazing
Your show is the best on u tube on what u guys do , dad in and day out, and thank u for what u guys r doing with all this stuff going on in this country. Thank u, Kurt Olson a proud American Downers Grove IL 60515
please keep this car ! Seeing it in the shop with you guys seems awesome :)
Nice vid. Am I the only one that thought it would have been easier to make the channels with a dremel tool?
i thought about using my dremel from the strat
No. You're right.
Best vid I’ve seen on this
I'm really impressed. That dash looks great. Well made "how-to" video. Way back in about '73 I coulda used this method to salvage the dash on a Toyota station wagon that I bot new. It was only a couple years old when that dash cracked out. Bummer!
I think mine cracked from using armorall on it.
Im getting anxious, waiting the overcome of the 240
Looks good guys a little suggestionwhat we do in metalwork when we have a crack before we will we will drill out the end of the crack so it don't spread after the repair maybe the same process would work on Dash's but thanks for the video guys awesome 👍👍👍
I got loss, what do you mean drill out the end of the crack? Thanks
@@gufiaito69able he means what he said - you drill a hole where the crack ends (or starts, depending on how you understand it) to prevent it from expanding further in the feature. The same process applies to auto glass repairs as well.
@@gufiaito69able You can search stress relief (holes)
I don’t even have a cracked dash, the video was just so good that I watched the whole thing.
👍🏼
awesome videos dudes, educational, cheers
Keep up the good work boys!
Very cool process. Looks great.
Turned out beautiful, reminds me of when I was a kid flocking my model cars interior.
wow what a great result !
Amazing results!
Thanks so much for this video
Good stuff! The dash on my STi is solid, but the dash in my Eclipse was cracked in like 3 places. Could've used this technology about 11 years ago. Haha.
This is awesome. What's the best way to clean it though?
Awesome job on repairing the cracks minbthe dashboard.
this was ur bestvideo ever doggy. in all aspects.
Love the paint overspray from the cans going through the air with the nice orange Porsche in the background. Smh
Those grey cabinets at the back. We thought they were electrical panels with 3M stickers on them.
Love the MickeyxRicky content!
Awesome vlog!!!!
That’s looking 🔥🔥🔥
It looks amazing
This Video is awesome, thanks you guys ......
Good job guys! !
I did a dash for my 74 c10 almost exactly how these guys did it looked great I was so proud. The neighbors were coming over to congratulate me, I took pictures and then put it back in the truck after a few weeks of drying in the garage while I did some work on the interior. After the sun beat on it for a week or so almost all the cracks reappeared I had to accept that the sun makes the vinyl expand and contract . I will try fleece and fiberglass resin next time as it is $300 for a new one
fiberglass it and cover it with leather if it is a forever truck.
oh damn, ive got the exact same plan, guess time to change
Love your channel bro
Looks great, though doesn't rock hard bondo kind of defeat the entire purpose of a dash made of softish plastic foam? I wonder if an easier solution would be to gouge out the cracks deep then use expanding foam, scrape close with a razor then sand, paint, etc.
Nice project guys. Interesting technique to include surface texture. Congratulations from Brazil- Parana state 👏👏👏
Very cool product thank guys
Great video! 👍👍👍👍👍👍
That was really cool great video
I need to see more of Ricky's Volvo 245!
Sebastian Smash yes, throtl pls
It’s for sale apparently
100% need to see more
How did you trim out the vent slots that had cracks protruding into them? The over look of the finished product looks great.
Damn that’s a nice result!
Good shyt! Thanks for the video it helps
Caracas!!!!!!!!!! Muito bom gostei mesmo, queria saber que pó é este, e que coisa preta você passou no painel antes de pulverizar este pó teria como também dar a dica de como você fez esta coisa para colocar o pó e pulverizar? valeu
It looks flocking amazing
This is very cool. That end result is quite nice. You guys have some real talent for sure. edit: subbed
they did a great job only they used the wrong material to fill up thr cracks because that is fiberglass resin with fiberglass strands in it
and that does get hard as rock, so not suitable for a soft surface as this dash because it wil crack again for sure. Now i had to repair
a hard plastic bumper that had some cracks in it and i used a special epoxy that does get hard but also stays flexible and is what they
should use the next time.
Excellent work and educational. Who ever have thumbs down should show something better if thay have.
Very nice. Well done.
Parabéns. Ótimo vídeo.
Looks great!
Yeah the first time I tried this I flicked it up real good didn't do it in my 10 minute window had sticking issues and didn't know about transparency.I was able to fix and have better outcome after a ton of sanding.
Great video!
Looks flocking great
It was a perfect presentation
Ive done cracked up vinyl tops & coated with UVC - [Vinyl paint] with a sponge pad & it comes out FLAWLESSLY . This video shows a BIG improvement ... but may be a lot of extra 'Flocking Around' - LOL . Seriously - the UVC coat holds up in the weather & can be rubbed with a wash mit ,without fear of pieces coming up .
amazing work wow!!!
I used a Dashskin for my sons 2005 Silverado, the only thing is be careful with the Dashskin adhesive, I could barely get the silicone out of the tube, other than that the Dashskin fit perfect.
These are the best videos
Thumbs up. Great work
Really helpful guys
Thas awesome my friend I would like to learn from you all many much more things
Very nice! How is it holding up? Is it hard to keep clean?
dam that came out way better then I thought it would Evan is right either suede or looks like the old crushed velvet that we used in the day to do dash's in vans.
Great flocking job!
THANK YOU RICKY!
This works well enough for a fix on the cheap , as long as you have a modicum of skills , However thermoplastic esters ( the dash covering ) dontstick all that well to polyesters , perhaps using a vinyl ester resin base would be better , but still in the long run heat cool cycles might give you a prob , but good vid ...
Whats is the brand ok the Flocker, the texture and glue? Thank you, great job!
Great job guys, however were do I get the flocking? Materials? Also why use fiberglass resin instead of bondo resin? Thanks in advance!
Instead of flocking I use Rust-Oleum bed liner in a aerosol can works great
Really? That’s interesting
TSSS ESE RICKIE CADA VEZ ME SORPRENDE MAS QUEDO DE AQUELLAS CHINGON!
Dash look amazing I post video about headlights didn't show full of it that I did but next time it will
Great video!!! This literally will save someone hundreds to thousands of dollars for install and buying one!
Nice job !
It is a good work. I like it.
I’ll give it a go on my Ae86 dash too hard to find a mint one might aswell give this a go.
WOOW excelente trabajo 😁
