306oc - Peugeot 306 Owners Club & Forum

Hey guys, need a little advise, what colour would be really nice to spray my dash? I mean the silver parts in my 306 (check image) to match my China blue car?

Whats unique and really looks nice and eye catching?

Thanks guys

You're limited for options to me as, IMO, anything bold/body colour tends to look tacky. Either the standard gunmetal, or maybe get it flocked if you want something different. You could do it China, if you like that...

ALso can people please upload your dash colours so we can find the best please

Sorry about this silly question, what does Flocked mean? I dont understand.

Pink.

Purple velvet ftw!

Done mine gloss black. Its different but looks rather OEM

Matching the colour of your car is a nice touch, really stood out when I did mine moonstone.
But I fancied something different.

Jj that is bright

Bianca white would look alright in mine, what paint would I need? Just normal body paint or?

Standard black FTW in my option anyway

Normal paint and lacquer, But make sure you use plastic primer. Give it a good rub down with and paper but not too rough.

Colour coded every inch of my dash, and I still love it.

I went completely different to some others

I know not everyone's liking but definitely stands out lol

Mine is moonstone blue wherever it was silver as standard, looks good but it's mainly because silver and moonstone aren't all that different!

Glossy colours are hard to get looking right too, you need a pretty flawless finish IMO. Niall's looks pretty smart. He needs to put that MPG computer in my car instead though, would look better there!

Nice blue with matching gear knob insert in the black 6

I'm tempted to do this but if I bugger it up, i'll have to buy a new one.

Sticker bomb was so 2011... My old blaze

Go scrap yard before hand and buy a old center console. or buy one cheap from here, I'm sure I have a old one lying around you can have cheap.

Flocked...but then I am biased.

Flock it or gloss black FTW

How the hell did you guys spray the dash? When attempted to do t the paint just smeared and run off?? Does anyone know why this is happening?

Sand the plastic with a 800grit and paper and primer it using plastic primer.
Always remember lots of thin coats instead of few thick coats.

Alright brilliant, will order the primer today, i Think that is where i was going wrong

or send them to me and I'll flock it

Make sure after you sanded it you clean them well with white spirits and let them dry.
