It's funny that you asked ... cuz I just so happen to have pixs of the dash strip. So this is how I did the dash

I first put a good coat of the citrus stuff on (don't use your hand w/ nitrile gloves cuz you don't have a paint brush) and wait bout two hours, wipe the goo off w/ a shop towel and then use the wire brush and cross hatch the area and the paint comes off. I used a fiber disc on the DeWalt to finish the hard areas and it leaves scratches for the epoxy to adhere to.
Here's a couple pixs of the dash undergoing the strip


Put a good layer on w/ a paint brush

Wipe off and then wire brush.

I used a fiber disc to scratch the metal clean

That's how I did it .... if it is too thin and starts to dry it doesn't work as well ... just put another layer on that spot and she's good.

Hope that helps all
