Acetone melts ABS. That's what most of the interior plastics are made of.

I tried acetone, and it did nothing. Thats when I started using JBWeld and aluminum as a backer plate.Acetone melts ABS. That's what most of the interior plastics are made of.
I will post some pics of what I am doing today. It is working very well. It is a slow process though. For a long time, I have seen these trucks at different car shows, and have seen dash boards that were coated with fill primer, sanded smooth and repainted. For some time, I wondered why, or didnt understand why they did that. After repairing some cracks, now I know why. I dont see a way to grain the repair so that it matches the rest of the dash perfectly. That being said, it is hard to tell where the repair is, if its its rite. Also keep in mind that all of these dashes are painted for GM. All of the dash plastic is black under the paint.I need to repair the top of my dash above the cluster and i think I'm going to try something like kevlar fabric and epoxy or dissolved plastic to bond it in.
