Does anyone have a recommendation for a good paint to redo the dash buttons? Mine lost their colour in the dark ages, and the replacement ones I have also don't have any lettering visible.

The dash buttons are black rubber aren't they? How can they lose their colour?

the lettering is etched into the rubber.

Maybe someone painted his letters white to punk him. lol

How about using some of that "Back to Black" stuff for automotive plastics and bumpers etc. Works a treat on Falco mirrors and things.

Car Plan trim wax rules.

Even works on the seat.

As long as you like a slippery seat, of course...

Would be in the style of Rodin's 'Thinker'...? :smt003

I've got a spare set of buttons from a busted dash that you can have, but I doubt they are any diffrent to the set you've already got , they're not painted, just embossed rubber as they all are.
