Restroring the Flybridge Instrument Panel

Pulled the instrument panel from the flybridge yesterday during a break in the winter weather. It needs a lot of clean-up.



The surface materal is a layer of vinyl. I'm guessing it came from the auto industry, like so many other Chris-Craft finishing materials.

Update: Went to an auto reappolstery place. They didn't have a material that matched exactly, but the pattern is similar and it's black, which looks good. They applied it with heat-resistent glue and coated it with a UV blocker. I cleaned up the guages with fine steel wool. So this is one winter project completed.
