You commented "VHT is a division of Dupli•Color, Inc.".

In looking around for the VHT product you recommend in this thread, I ran across a DupliColor product sold at AutoZone.

Do you believe this is the same product you used only, retailed differently?

Dupli-Color/Gloss black vinyl & fabric coating

I'd like to add an addendum to this thread.

If anyone is looking for and needing a GT 14 dash or shift plate panels, and are tired of searching eBay and going to countless meets to find them, you might check out Glen Pettit's repos.

I don't know Glen and we've never met and I know nothing of the quality of his offerings, but if you need one of these panels, Glen is an RS member and VENDOR, so its highly likely you are going to get what you are seeking and be treated fairly.

What I see looks very accurate to me visually as far as detail.

You will however have to follow the advice offered in this tread to finish the panels to original looking items.

@ztnoo thank you for the information.

I have bought items from Glen and they are top notch, so you don't need to worry about that! :thumbs:

I'd recommend, using caution, and testing in an inconspicious area first...

but, can attest the brake fluid works on most plastics. 

Very nice job on the dash.  :handgestures-thumbsup:

I can tell any reader that this post is spot-on.  Thank you MikesRJ for all of the time it took to write-up this process, I have printed, 3-hole punched and place in my "big-binder of great reference information".

Found this thread. I have all round hoods so no plastic dash panels to repair. 

 

I may have to go find a C-160 just so I can follow these amazing instructions!
