Anyone recommend the proper paint to freshen up a 1997 dashboard and maybe use on the center console as well?
Its the grey color.
Thanks,

SEM makes a great interior dye product. They tend to match pretty closely if not, perfect to the stock interior. Go on their website and try to find a color that matches your interior. Let it be know that you will want to buy a satin color, DONT by gloss if you want it to look factory. SEMs satin finish is more of a semi-gloss anywho.

I have painted a few dashboards on Honda's and Toyota's and I never used anything special and they all held up great over time.

I used Krylon spray paint and primer (2-3 coats) and another 3-4 coats of clear coat and they all turned out great.

Only warning I have is to make sure you clean the dashboard first really well, and if you use white be aware of the massive glare that will create which gets annoying.
