Default restoring color to red dash areas

Hello all,

I am so happy to have found this club. My dad bought new in 97 a shaba z210 and i purchased it from him a while back. I have friends that always grumble about how much they have to spend repairing their boats of other brands and i have never had anything break major on the mariah. We call her old faithful.

My question is about the dash on the driver and passenger sides. when we bought it, it was already having a fading issue. we got one that was on the lot a year already. I was wondering if anyone else ever had this problem and how they fixed it. I got it reupholstered a year ago and that is all that is giving away her age and would like to restore it if possible. i am sure there has to be some sort of product to do this but i dont know where to start. thanks

    Do a site search for 'dash' or 'dash fading'. This has been discussed a few times here. Here is a link to one of those threads.
