Another Sticky Dash Issue

filip00

I don't know that, I never sent stuff to the USA. I suspect it's a week or two.

Look what I just received!

BiG time Props to Fillip00!

If you're in on this group by and haven't already sent me your mailing address, please do so ASAP! I'll need that info to calculate the domestic shipping charges.

Just so you're all aware, my responses after Friday may be delayed a bit. I'm going in for knee surgery and will be down for the count for a few days. I'm hoping to get all of this shipped within the next 7 days though.

Glad to see it was received without any issues. It was MUCH faster than I hoped for. Awesome, now I hope you all get the same good results as I did

Much thanks for you and Rob....

TLDR: worth a try, no luck for me, yet.

Received the product, extremely well packaged and well sealed, I bet I could kick shipping box like a soccer ball and the bottle inside would be just fine. Mucho Gracias!

It's the fall, but it's still clear sky and 95F during the day in Dallas, Texas. I hurried up with trying the product so I can put the dashboard to the natural torture test.

Sat the dashboard under the sun for about 25 minutes while I took a dump. The dash surface temp was showing 160F+ (concrete next to it was showing 105F), dash was nice and shiny/melty.

For giggles, I applied the product on 1/4 of the dash when it's still hot and melty (around 140F at this point).

Did another 1/4 when it's completely cooled off (dry air, A/C environment, plus cooled with a cooling pad).

Let 1/2 untouched (including the 3 pod covers)

I applied 3 times on each side. Let it cure for a couple of hours in-door. Threw it back outside for Texas sun torture test. Shiny and melty again.

Note: on this spare dash, all area was "infected", except for the pod covers. They remained matted and smooth to the touch under the sun.

Let me know if y'all have other ideas to test. Hopefully others have better luck.

I packed it as if Ace Ventura was gonna deliver it.

Hmmm....

Right after the last post, under the hot sun, I applied another layer to the 1st 1/4 of the test surface. Yes I poured the chemical directly on the shiny and melty dash, right under the sun. It was hard to move the sponge initially, but I poured enough to make sure all the bumpy surface gets the chemical. I don't know why that would matter, I was hoping the chemical can bond with the layer better if things were melting.

It's been over an hour since, just went out to check again, and there's actually a distinct difference. That 1/4 area looks less shiny (although not the original matted), and it's actually dry to the touch, left no residue on my hand...while the other areas are sticky and shiny.

Sorry for the rant....

I'll leave the dash out, recheck tomorrow, see if my luck continues.

Day 2, dash been outside for 24+ hours, another 90+F full sun clear sky. In the picture, right hand side is still dry to the touch, and noticeably more matted. Second picture shows surface temp. The middle line was where I had masking tape on (fell off when dash turned melted under the sun).

I’m leave it out there for more time to see if it’ll fail at some point.

I’m also going to try the same application technique using 303, to see if that will work.

First, wanted thank you for posting the results. I hope I read this correctly... So we just have to put a lot of the protectant a few times for it to work?

I can accept a non-sticky semi shiny dash if that's the end result.
