Dashpad color and gloss level
« on: May 12, 2014, 11:25:44 PM »
Hi Everyone,

Restoring a Skylark with trim code 131 = Blue with cloth/vinyl seats. The dashpad is dark blue and I'm looking to confirm the gloss level. Looking at it I would say its the same as the dash surround which is gloss. Can anyone help me confirm?

Thank you!!

Tony

Tony, welcome to the site.

Believe the dash pad should have a satin finish or maybe even a bit duller. The dash surround should also have a satin, or semi-gloss, finish to it.
