T5 build series - dashboard paint - colour change

we are moving on to the inside of the T5 build series and I’m going to paint the lower half of the dash as the light great colour is abit dull, I get into what’s needed to carry out the job and an explanation as to what’s going on.

    Hey Ed thank you 🙏 really appreciate the kind words. I have to be honest I don’t even watch his videos I just see them pop up and loads of people ask if I watch him. I enjoy watching more real life KZreadrs with a reasonable budget rather than just throwing thousands at stuff. Maybe I’m a little jealous 🤷 don’t know I don’t think I want to be that big as I wouldn’t be able to reply to all you guys in the comments it would be overwhelming. Either way thank you 👍

    Hi bud thank you appreciate that 👍 yes for sure, you would need to go to and car shop that sells spray paints and look for one that is close enough to what it needs to be, could even take a small piece of trim with you to try and match it up. Some paint places can make any colour into a spray can maybe a Google search or phone around. Just clean the hell out of them with a degreaser I guess even washing up liquid is a degreaser and a red scotch pad and they clean and prep the plastic. Then get a tin of the plastic primer I showed in the video and give them a really thin light coat. Then with the paint just really thin light dusty coats to colour them up and your done 👍
