Instrument Panel

April 8, 2005

As well as the centre console, I spent time tonight wet sanding the panel. I think I’m keeping 3M’s sandpaper company in business single handedly! Anyways, I’d filled rivets so they’d be invisble, and needed to take off the excess filler. I used Super Fil from Spruce, and man that stuff is tough to sand. It’s good stuff though, sands nice and smooth, with a lot of effort.

An update on the lettering… So far, it’s ben under the fishtank lights for about 3 and a bit weeks…. It’s still looking like the day I put it under there. I even put it under the ultra violet light to speed things up a bit. So, looks like this is the way to go. Now I need to buy some clearcoat and make sure it doesn’t dissolve it!
