MatMan Posted November 10, 2005 Share Posted November 10, 2005 We'll see. My only concern is that the inside of the dash cap was smooth and doesn't give much to grip from the matting/ resin. This might not be sufficient for day in' date=' day out street car duty. Another alternative would be spray foam inside the areas around the underside fo the dash.Mike[/quote'] Spray foam is an excellent idea! Foam, before expansion, has great wetting. Keep in mind the expansion coefficient while you are spraying. I know there are some foams that have less than 5% expansion while others have 1000% (yes, 10 times!). One thing you may want to try is to use an abraision tool on the underside of your dash cap to mar the surface for better adhesion. -0.02 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

DaleMX Posted November 11, 2005 Author Share Posted November 11, 2005 That looks good Mike. A thin layer of foam might help keep the noise down. I ran mine without the dash for a week and noticed a huge improvement when I put the dash back in. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Mikelly Posted November 14, 2005 Share Posted November 14, 2005 You guys won't believe this... The resin took FOUR days to dry. Something was up there for sure... Anyway, I spent the weekend battling leaves... Didn't do much of anything in the garage. I hope to focus more time on it Thursday or Friday. Right now I'm busy Tuesday through Thursday morning. Owning your own company can be crazy... Mike Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
