    I used some Goo-Gone (not a good idea) on my dash to get rid of some sticky adhesive left by the previous owners' GPS mount. This removed some of the charcoal finish, leaving the black undercoat. Can anyone tell me where to find some touch up paint or any ideas for other fixes?

    Thanks in advance,

    Drew

    Sem sells interior paint, that should match if you get the correct paint code. It comes in a rattle can, so it could get messy, if you spray in your truck.

    ^^^ what he said. My Girlfriend's dad does auto interior repair for a living and he mostly uses SEM paints. Good stuff. You can buy it at most auto body supply stores.

    You're in denial. Those things are hideous. Serves about the same function as a bra on the front of your vehicle.

    You may not like the look of a dash mat but I need one so I can mount something on the dash without ruining the original surface. Besides, my windshield keeps getting extremely fogged up from the chemicals given of by the plastic dash covering. A dash mat will prevent that!:)
