Acetone on dash?
Hi everyone,
I have some type of substance on my new to me Shelby GT 350 dash. I can't tell if it's some type of glue or what. I don't think it's the dash itself.
Is acetone safe on the dash? I tried wiping it down first with water obviously no luck.
It's not all the spots in the picture, just that one longer spot in the center.
Thanks

Try a test spot but my guess is no , it is absolutely not safe… Acetone discolors and eats plastic.

I thought that as well. A Google search had mixed views. I wonder if I could use goo gone?

Maybe a good adhesive remover? I'm nervous about putting anything on it because I don't want to make it worse. But it also drives me nuts having it there.

Sounds like you may need a dash cover.

DO NOT use Acetone. It will discolor it pretty quickly. Ironically, it's 1/3 the mix of my pre-coating wipe-down mixes and something I can't do in my garage as Acetone is one of the main nemesis products for a Polyaspartic floor. I'm sure diluted it won't hurt, but with the volume of coatings I do, over time, it would like impact things so I roll them into the driveway to wipedown.

Maybe I'll try a little WD-40 or goo gone.

Could try a steam cleaner also

My vote would be steam. Would be a good tool to have around and a lot cheaper than a new dash.
