Most people don't believe this car be work, some if the dashboard spoil the will buy another leather and place on the front just to cover it not know the can repair it to turn new.
In this post i will share with you all how to work on a old car dashboard to new.

Before

After

Comparing the two you can see the dashboard has turn new after working it.

To remove the dashboard from the car you need to pay electricians to loose it, to loss the dashboard from the car really need experience electrician, after loosing it, you can now work it freely.

I lose the AC pipe and the speaker covers.

The old leather has expired and has start pilling off, so i used my hand and knife to remove the old leather.

I then try my bess to remove it completely and it is left with the board only.

Since i am making use of gum, i have to make the surface rough so that the gum can gum the two object strong. So i then use sand paper to sand the entire board.

I then use broom to sweep out the sand material.

Don't sweeping it, the board is ready to work on.

I then used tape to measure the vertical and the horizontal length of the board considering the longest side.

I then transfer the measurements to the new leather and mark it out.

I then use scissors to cut it out following the line i draw.

I then place the new leather on the board.

I then get a all purpose gum from the market.

I then pull the leather to one side and then apply gum on both the leather and the board, then allow it to dry.

Then gum them together and here is the outcome.

I then pull it to the opposite side, then apply the gum again and allow it to dry. Then gum them together, cut out the access and finally the board has turn new.

I then fix back what i loose and give it to electrician to tight it back.

Hope this was very simple process and i believe you have learn from this post.
