Another Sticky Dash Issue

geeteezee · 02-25-2020, 12:16 AM

The website with the fix product seems to have determined that it's the adhesive seeping through the upper dash layer.

Guess which one was fine, and which 3 got sticky?

It’s as if the dash likes the sun and the heat, and will have temper tantrum if it doesn’t get abuse from sun and heat. I just shake my head sometimes...

Wouldn't surprise me one bit. Interesting to say the least.

Anyone had a chance to try this product? https://stickydashfix.com/

JARblue · 03-26-2020, 08:58 PM

Couple guys talked about purchasing it. No updates though. I am interested as well.

Thx for the write up. Please continue to update us on whether the product holds up in the long run. Very interested to know if this is a permanent solution.

Thanks for purchasing, testing and posting the results here. Like others, I'm really interested in seeing how it stands the test of time.

I took my Z on a nice long ride yesterday and really examined the dash under unobstructed sunlight and it's really starting to look like crap. I'm definitely considering this product.

Did you also use this on the leather on the top of the door cards?

*Hi all. Need dash repaired. Has anyone ever used Fibrenew? Particularly the one in Newport Beach? They're on yelp but no reviews. Are they reputable or a bad investment? If not, any recommendations in Southern Cali to fix dashboard? Got a crack and dent in the dash. Any feedback helpful on Fibrenew or any reputable place to fix dash in socal. Thanks for any help.

FYI, Fibrenew locations are franchises. If you're lucky, you get a crew like this

Best of luck.

Sorry to hear. I hate it. Changing out dash seems to be such a painful exercise too.

It’s not heat in many cases. Sticky dash seems to be developing on cars sitting in the garage, lol.

No. Thought about it. Still undecided. I have a pair of touring seats needing some love.

Did you put anything on it to clean it or protect it? I use nothing but a damp cloth with water.

Same here. Damp rag, water only.
