Re: [FWDLK] Paint Gloss-Top of Metal Dash



Yeah, take it from me, gloss is not the way to go, of course, 15 years ago I had no clue what I was doing and just painted it. I actually keep a towel with me to throw on the dash when the glare gets bad. But it hasn't been annoying enough to make me pull the dash out and re-paint it.

My 55 DeSoto is undergoing restoration. I am trying to achieve as authentic a restoration as possible. I am unsure of the correct gloss or texture paint that should be applied to the metal top of the dashboard. Most of the restored ones I've seen were done in full gloss and this doesn't look correct and also raises glare issues.

Thanks in advance for your responses.
