BMW E30 Dashboard Restoration

[Stevieabz]

Hey guys,

In this week's episode, I restore a dashboard that a subscriber found for me in Spain, not too far from me, and for sale for 150 euros! And it's crack-less!

I snapped it up straight away and got to work on the video below.

Enjoy.

Excellent work!

I had a couple of restoration questions:

1. I noticed that you were resting the dash on a foam/insulation type surface - same insulation material that sits inside the knee roll trim. What is it and where can I get it?
2. For restoring the markers on various stalks and switches, I was going to go for something like https://www.ebay.co.uk/itm/173175950119. Are there better alternatives?
3. What paint you you recommend to paint over plastic bits like stalks and other smooth plastic parts in the interior?

Thanks!

MoFaraz is the best one at this, highly recommended. He has his own web site with a lot more options than what he lists on ebay
