Dash Pad Recovering Options

[puffinator]

Has anyone used "Just Dashes" to recover a dash pad? If so, can you provide an opinion. Quality of work and match of material to stock.

Has anyone used anyone else?

Sure,the production tooling of the method Porsche used back then was state of the art.
The puffiness you refer to is the perception of the part's radii.
The tool used was chemically etched with acid to remove material from the mold surface.
Likely a silkscreen technique rather than a photographic method.
Anyone with automotive trim experience would know that.
It is a very nice result and the ashtray delete option is convenient.
Again,labour intensive.

I beg to differ. Everybody knows that vinyl is one of the alkenyl functional groups. Thus, as a result, applying negative pressure to the vinylic(which it is often referred to on a carbon skeleton due to the positions of sp2-hybridized carbons) will cause a raised-grain that is commonly mistaken for the puffiness that you mention.

Or, like mepstein said, it could be because of the padding.
