- Is it worth fixing? What's involved? It may not be as bad as you might imagine! The sticky substance can be plasticizer or a breakdown of the components of bioplastics, which could also be regarded as a plasticizer. Whichever it is, you can always test with various solutions to see which attacks and removes the buildup. A wide variety of solutions can be used to test: alkaline cleaners, citrus cleaners, naphtha etc.

Nice job Rick! I run into these pretty often, I'll have to get some of that plastic primer and try refinishing some of them. Of course some have major cracks, gouges etc.. and just are not worth trying to repair. Thanks for posting this!
There are more and more interior parts that are not repairable. hopefully we get to cover some of that in a video soon. And thanks!
Beautiful im friend I have the same lexus is350 and this viedo has fully restored my interior to mint
Excellent work Sir! Thanks for sharing.
You did a really nice job! It’s looks good!
Top quality repair work.
Great workmanship, amazing result.
Nice work! I really learned something here. Thanks for sharing. Personally, never been asked to correct the condition. That was a bad one and it was beautiful when done. Guess I’m kinda spoiled in my business cuz I’d tend to run the other direction if asked to work on that. I’m curious what dye system you’re using? We sprayed Special -T for many years, then Classic Dye products, but now my new found friend Polycril. Absolutely love it.
Absolutely amazing job!
i got an 09 lexus is350 and this just started to happen. Hope i have i guy like you nearby me :(
Nice job made me smile humor at the end have a great day
I would love to get some product recommendation, I understand you don't sell, but if you can point a DIY'er towards some trusted products that would be greatly appreciated.
Otherwise Great Video.
Magnificent job.
Brilliant as always Rick 👍🏻
Glad you found it helpful.
@@a.r.t.srealrepairsforrealc8247 as always
A job well done.
Thank you, Sir!
Wow u have skills for sure. My 2010 is250 is starting to get sticky but its a beige color not black. It only gets a bit sticky in the sun then goes a way after in garage or at night so its not shining or super sticky or dirty like most but im wondering what i can do to stop it from going down hill. Any suggestions anyone?
I have the exact same year and model car except for mine is black. I would like to know what I can do to prevent this as well. Mine has not gotten bad currently and I do not want it to in the future.
Very nice job
It's always good when you get out of a sticky situation. 😃😃
Thanks for this video, really helpful. Could you help me with my dashboard?
I have the same problem with my is250.
Can you share the spray paint you used?
Thanks
Mine gets sticky and shiny in the heat !
can i do everything without removing the side pillar trim as they very easily broken and they have sensitive components under them like airbag
Yes you can try to mask off the a-pillar trim but it's such a messy job you are better off removing it. Removal is not a problem.
Hello, I really enjoy watching your videos. May i ask how and what kind of paint did you used to make the texture? Would you please make a video about making texture… thank you sir
I have several videos up already that do just that in explicit detail.
Good job 👌🫶
Ha. I strip and wax floors on occasion. I always say that wax covers a multitude of sins
This is an absolute masterpiece! What did you use to fill the whole on the dash? I have a good few indentations in mine. Thank you
I believe I used a two part epoxy. level with bondo spreader.
Could you do this repair on my Lexus
He clearly says what he used.
Can I use any kind of alcohol to clean dashboard
Isopropanol is widely known for best results. But of course each model of dash is made differently. Experimenting with various solvents is not going to hurt anything at this point. Thanks for the question!
this getting me nut...........next time I would buy a car that has rug on the dash.......how do we get rid of it if we got this situation??? are there any liquid to get rid of it or I have to buy a rug for the dash to cover it??? what if the sun arise and it would happen again???
This got me so nut too, I can't even tell you. Unbelievable.
How long before the dash stops letting off strong paint fumes?
The water base products are extremely low in VOCs so there are no fumes. Check this with your supplier.
@@a.r.t.srealrepairsforrealc8247 -- Awesome; thanks! I just discovered your channel -- addicted to watching your repair transformations now. How can I learn more about the supplies used? Particularly in this video: What drew me to the channel is the consideration of buying a Lexus product with a potential sticky dash. To the lay person, the supplies you referred to are ambiguous. If I get a used lexus, I may want to try this myself. And if I can't how would I find someone like you in my area? Thanks again!
What are the name of the Clips that hold the airbags covers in place?
IDK
What percentage of plastic primer do you add pigment to the color to create the texture?
I use 80% plastic primer and 20% pigment. So 4:1. Same ratio as for any other base. I don't measure exactly, just eyeball.
@@a.r.t.srealrepairsforrealc8247 I appreciate the quick response. And congratulations on the videos, they are incredible. One last question, would it be possible to create the texture with leather binder mixed with the color too?
Where are you located?
Do you offer repair services?
I am not taking any new customers. Trying to retire. But thanks.
Bro it has to be a easier way. Wipes or something
haters gonna hate or something
someone else used oxy to clean it off, but no feedback on the long term results.
There's nothing to wipe off. It's not just something sticky on top of the dash, its the actual plastic of the dash melting / deteriorating.
