I have an old foam dashboard that is badly weathered and was cut up to make some room for a roll bar. The cuts have to stay, as the car has the front roll bar. Large sections of the fake leather, nauga-hide, or ??? cover were broken out, so I just decided to remove all of the covering and start from scratch on the foam. This foam may have been soft at one point, but it's 40 years old now and pretty hard.
I am thinking of reconstructing the dash by brushing epoxy or vinyl-ester fiberglass resin into the foam, letting it harden up, and then going from there. I think this will leave me with a hard fiberglass dash when it is all done.
Has anyone done something crazy like this before? Ideas or comments?
