would this product be good for filling a dashboard crack and then sanded and painted? the dashboard is slightly padded, not just a hard plastic.

No, This stuff hardens like a rock , you'll spend eternity trying to sand it . Besideds the dash material and tis stuff are no where similar in texture .. the heat in the sun will crack the two again from each other in no time ........They make vinyl repair dash kists you cant try , ut the best solution its tojust put a pre made dash pad from a car catalog or a complet dash replacement . I restore cars , thats the best answer itf its a collectible or valuable car .......

I purchased this for a friend of mine who details cars. The only thing that I can confirm is that he uses the different pads with it for buffing the body of the car and a different pad for the headlights. How it is used I can't answer, but I know that he uses it strictly for car detailing, all aspects of car detailing. I'm not sure if you can use it for sanding a car, i would imagine with the right pad you should be able to, but I can't confirm that for certain.

Don't think that this product would work to fill in or smooth out a surface crack as it was not meant to be exposed to the outside elements. Once heat or moisture builds up around this product, it can get sticky and will probably start smearing all over your screen.

Hello Diego, Yes, but it will depend on your goals. We have some customers that have used this for a dash finish on things like cool pool decks. It will depend allot on the scale of the project. Please call me to talk about your specific goals before you purchase: 800-669-3272. Best regards, Nolan Scheid

I would say NO, as the surface is sealed and this would most likely make it crack and ruin it. Try a water based clear gloss that has a flexable surface finish. Testor makes this also as well as Pactra and Humbrul from your local hobby shop.Ray

I've never used it for that, so I can't say. I would think it would. A customer in our local auto parts store told me he used it on a crack in his snow plow and it held up. Just be sure to let it cure long enough per the directions. I don't know if this helps you or not.

I'm pretty sure that it's really not intended for that. Really read through the reviews many posters put some very detailed answers. I believe small cracks and chips/spiderweb cracks is where this product works best.

I think it would I've used this before. It is very hard to sand compared to body filler but much stronger.

If you sand it pretty well I would think so. It has a semi shiny top coat already...

I'm not an expert on Silicone but I think it sounds like a good idea - It is non porous and heat resistant so should work - I'm using it in my artwork as a heat resistant, non-stick surface with a glue gun.

Can't answer the part about sanding and painting--it should do a great job of PATCHING the crack though.

I agree with M.C the surface has to be smooth. my dashboard has a slight dip and I've had to fight with it for a long time before sticking it to the windshield.

Don't think it would hurt it, but, I couldn't recommend doing so. Better off using meguiars interior detail spray on those materials instead. Just the plain spray though. Avoid products containing oils and or silicon.

Of course. I used it to fill in the gaps to prevent water leakage as well as using the foam to build a little stone wall up on the liner for cosmetics. I do not what you could not do with this 'stuff'. It will fix you right up.

In my honest opinion I dont think that it would hold up very well. It is closer to textured paint rather than truck bed liner like rhino liner or a product like that. It has performed about as well as the stock paint in my truck bed as to resisting scratches.

I've only used it on my windshield. The suction cup material is really amazing and acts as they advertise, and I don't think it would wreck your dashboard, but I don't know for certain.

Not really. It's similar to duct tape. Best to use tape to cover crack. Then get some plaster, key that dry. Then paint.
