If you don't clean the crap out of the surfaces, your adhesives may never work for you.
Here we go again, when you glue something, you are gluing to whatever is under it. If you have a spotlessly clean layer of metal dash surface you glue to the metal dash surface. If there is a spotlessly clean layer of paint, you are gluing to the paint. If you have a 30 year old layer of oxidized glue on the dash, you are gluing to the oxidized glue. If you have a spotlessly clean painted dash and you smear your greasy fingers on the dash, you glue to the dash and the grease. Some joker sprays it with silicone adhesive, armor all, or fish oil impregnated rustoleum, you are in for fun. Clean the crap out of the dash using 409 cleaner (no residue), laquer thinner, and alcohol. Each one cleans different problems. If it has that brown coating from dried former glue, get out the sandpaper, the cleaners and the NON RUSTOLEUM touchup paint. Do the cleaning, and I guarantee it will stay. Oh yeah, new basketweave is essential. Kennydoingitonceandnotoverandoverandoverandoverandoverand... |
