Got my console swapped in. Painted it all black, along with the glove box. Now it looks kinda funny being 2 toned. I scratched a little of the gray off and the dash pieces seem to be black under the paint. How do I strip that paint off? Aircraft remover? Paint thinner? Pressure washer?

I want to strip it so the whole dash is black. Then I want to paint everything else black.

Yea if you planning on just leaving it black, start off with a pressure washer and get as much off as you can then you might have to use something to get anything that's left over..I know a few people have had problems with chemicals turning the dash white..maybe they can chime in
 
DO NOT USE THINNER!

I did it based off the recommendation in one of the interior threads and it fucked my dash. Just use a pressure washer and be very patient as it will take a while. I used thinner and it stripper it off very quickly, but it turned it white, almost "dried out" looking. I ended up having to paint mine.
 
No he's wrong about what he said, about what he said, about what he said :think: lol

It's my own personal experience with it, so how can it be wrong? :shrug: not trying to start anything, just trying to let him know that I had a bad experience with using thinner and what the outcome was.
