![FIXING THE WORST DASH I'VE EVER SEEN [2]](/img/1.gif)
I had a 95 BMW M3 that had the headliner start drooping....took it to a guy in downtown Orlando, FL who worked on nothing but European cars. We talked about his methods and he showed me the 3M adhesive he used, which came in 5-gallon buckets which he described as "extremely expensive." Which explains why the average Joe doesn't use it. Also explains why he charged $500 to restore that headliner. Thanks for this....your patience and craftsmanship is truly impressive.
What I enjoy so much Mike is that you are not Afraid to Venture into New territory you Head straight forward and you take us with you for the adventure and if anything happens we experience it with you Nothing Fake about you and Thank you for being the Real Deal, it keeps everything Fresh and interesting, unlike another channel I won't mention their name that record's and repeats the same boring Bullshit Can I get All my Chins and Fat Ass in this Copart Tesla 🤣 or and thinks because of the friend's he's purchased Who praise him, he thinks he's got it all together. He's such a Sandy 🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣
I wish I had your patience, that whole thing would have been on the burn pile by now. Yet another excellent video Mike, thanks and take care buddy 👍
Thanks for checking in man.
Ya I would have the patience for it I’d be dropping the f bombs lol
Either burned to a crisp or with an upholsterer but certainly would try that myself. Tbh I would have had a go at the painted option but not covering it.
That is hilarious,,
My thoughts exactly! But damn it looks goooooood!
Not going to lie, I was super sketch about how this dash would turn out but wow, I'm really impressed. It looks really, really nice!
Thanks Mark
What I appreciate WB is how you just own up when something goes wrong and then show us how you get it right. Too many YT channels just show perfect results every time and we all know that just doesn't happen.
That Sir was a mighty fine job and it looks factory. An unbelievable restoration from something that was really scrap. And yes black headliner ....
one can tell that you are not from the new throw away generation. Love your attitude to the trials and tribulations and of course the end results. A lot of us fail because we do not have or know what products are out there or how to use. You are a great teacher and inspiration to us your followers. Thanks again for teaching us patience along with great craftsmanship
I read the header for the vid and thought..oh no the dash is damaged beyond repair. Your perseverance is on a legendary level my friend. Glad it all worked out in the end, you also gained experience in the process. 👍
I would have just sanded it and painted it satin black....lol. You did a great job 👏🏼 👍🏼
Or maybe hitting it with a textured vinyl spray paint.
@@davidmcdaniel2615 Thats an even better idea 💡 👏🏼
The bed liner paint has a textured look like vinyl with killer durability. That's what I would've used.
@@michaelbristol6467 I was going to comment the same
@@michaelbristol6467 I reckon WB might have agreed with that when he was about half way through 😄
You had an idea and you tried it out 💡this is how innovation happens: there are a lot of misfires before you achieve your goal 👍 much respect ✊
Thanks Tony
I am impressed great job
Jobs like this need a textured wrapping vinyl that can be stretched into pockets like the air vents and around humps.
Oh hang on - you’ve used “4 way vinyl? Looks like great stuff.
Wow! I wish I had your patience Mike. I like that you show us all the issues and don’t edit them out. ✊👍💯
That’s the difference between you and other channels… you are willing to try things and excel at it… no matter how many times you have to do it!! Great job!!!
Mike, that dashboard is MINT! really impressed with how it turned out. I never imagined someone wrapping a dash like that and it turned out great.
Dashboard came out SWEET! Lot of work & it paid off BIG time at the end!
Literally nowhere else on RUclips. I think it turned out amazing.
you put a lot of effort into that and credit to you for showing that it went wrong.I think it's an excellent result and you should be rightly pleased with the outcome.
After I saw you fix up that roof, I had no doubt you'd figure it out and complete this dash. You even got the contours on the raised up part. Great video, your patience problem solving and skills are impressive.
The dash looks great, I would be happy to have that in my car. Great job!!!!
You really showed how to be patient and think everything through before the 2nd try. I know people who would have started throwing tools around because things weren't going the way they expected.... Great job Bro!
That's what you call shrinkflation regarding the cans of glue!
Awesome job..I admire your patience!
You have to fail first to achieve greatness Mike.... Looks great!!
Dude you got skills and patience don't ever let anyone tell you don't I've worked on Cars 4 years I'm follow you for a couple years now I'm totally impressed doing that dance like that I never thought it would work but you proved me wrong hats off to you
An "A+" for effort WB. A lot of work but it looks good.
As always, a good job, especially dealing with something you've never done before.
Fearless!
Fantastic job Mike. If I hadn't watched you do all this, I would have just took it that you bought a new dash for the car.
A you said, we learn from our mistakes and practice make it perfect and you had a lot of practice with this one.
Really, really well done Mike. 👍
I see you got about a 1000 new subs man! Good stuff. As always, I love how you show the real side of refurbishing. It’s not always perfect or easy, which is why it’s a skill. Your end result justifies the effort Mike. Mad respect for your talent friend. I work with 4 way vinyl on my projects and it’s forgiving but not easy. Way to go.
You are very determined Mike, and sometimes that is what it takes. It looks Good, so you did a Good Job!
Satin Black on the roof would be fine.
Thanks man. I agree with you on the headliner. I think it would look awesome black.
What a transformation from what you started with though. That’s really magic when you put a comparison pic side-by-side. Great job! The only way to really learn a craft like that is hands on and by making mistakes. Brave to even try!
Hey man don’t let that mishap get you down keep on keeping on
Weird Beard, you're a good guy. Thanks for being real just like 99% of us watching and for showing how learning a new skill by trying new things pays off in the end. Great job on this project and I'll be looking forward to watching your future videos.
That looks like a brand new factory piece. Looks like it tested the patience alottt. I would've ended up tossing the thing against the wall and searching the junkyards for a different one. Love the progress on the old girl and I'd say yes to painting the headliner black.
Similar backing fleece and stretch fabric with high temperature glue would be good on the roof lining. I had success with black nylon Lycra but any colour could make some really interesting effects.
Well done Mike, it looks great. I was stressed just watching you do this, thanks for the video Regards Mike UK
That came out great! It was a process but as you said, everyone learned from it. I admire your patience and perseverance…this is a fun project to watch 😀. Stay well and take care of the wife.
I am so glad I or other convinced me I couldn't do what I thought I could so here I sit holding an ginormous "L" TK garage special meanwhile you learned and achieved a lot.
Damn Mike...you have more patience than I do. I truly enjoy your channel brother! The content is always awesome! Keep up the great work. Keep on Motoring brother!!! 👍👍👍
Amazing work, it’s better than factory! I don’t know what was more impressive , fixing the roof or this hot mess of a dash that now looks better than new. Thanks for the great content.
Probably be an impossible job with airbags! That took a lot of patience!
Great job Mike, not sure I would have the patience to do that. Really like your program, keep up the excellent work. Take care. 👍
Came out nice. I would have gotten pissed off and sprayed it with bedliner! Black headliner will be cool. Spray A-pillar trim satin as well.
Craftsmanship! That’s what this is all about. Never say die. Good job once again, Mr WeirdBeard!
Great job mike. The pressure of doing it on camera can't be easy. Love this content . Happy Easter from Dublin Ireland 👍
You are the man!!! This car is gonna rock when you're done!!!
Definitely looks like one of those experience where you just can't do anything else but try learn from what happens, adapt and just continue from there. Always as impressed with your patience, you did some great work on that dashboard and ended up with a good video for others to learn from. :) Stay awesome, much love to yall!
when you started this project with the dash i went and watched a few others rework dash boards in similar condition all of them came out looking decent i just want to say i like your method best with the rubbery coating
My dad was an upholster for years, ran his own shop and did alot of restoration work like you have done on this dash. I think he would have been proud of the way you worked through this process. The white pad you had you could have glued it to your vinyl first and it would have been easier to work with, but I think the dash turned out great without the padding.
You have a ridiculous amount of patience.... Great result in the end!!
I didn’t at the beginning think it would be like that at all, so just goes to show just some imagination and creativity and there is nothing that cannot be done. Well done you did a great job on it 👏👏👏👏👏👏
Mike you are one hell of a craftsman that dash turned out beautiful. Great job brother.
Your patience and explaining the process is great. Thank you ✨🎆
Great job!! I would of given up and painted it. lol I wish I still had my 1971 Fury 3
Weird Beard ????
Genius Beard !!!! This dashboard looks better than any factory original. Thank you Mike for showing this video, much appreciated, again!
Outstanding work. This channel is the real deal. Trial and error from a great craftsman. Impressive..
Dear Mr. Beard, You are a patient, goodhearted man. Congratulations on using the 3M glue. Seems like that made almost as much. of a difference as starting in the middle. Wow. Great work. Thank you for having the courage to share both your failures and success.
Outstanding, Mike. I'm looking forward to seeing videos of you cruising around in this baby.
Mike worked a miracle with that old cracked out Dash 💪💯 . I'm searching for parts for my build & keeping an eye out for something you can use . I'm in the rust belt & them cars are rusted to the ground unfortunately. I will continue to look around as I'm walking threw them old junkyards in search for parts. Paul Walker was driving a Newport in joy ride lol . Salute 👍😎
Wow, that dash looks awesome, trial and error for sure but with patience you did a fine job and showed how to do it right and slow. Going to look good when it's in the car and all the badges and instruments cluster is on it. Congrats
I am impressed. You will forever be a You Tube dashboard repair idea that had success.
WB you went outside your comfort zone and look at what you did : ) Great job that's how we learn new trades and ways to get er done ourselves . JOB WELL DONE.. looks great to me..
Great job and well done! I admire your willingness to tackle tough jobs and start over when necessary. Press on regardless
Great perseverance, Mike, and the finished result makes it really worthwhile! Anything with 3M on the label is a good choice, and the 3M90 was perfect for that job. If you ever need something with even more "grip", try the 3M Panelbond, which is a fully certified 'structural adhesive' and is even used to stick bridges together (only Interstate bridges though, not railroad ones, apparently...)
That looks like a brand new dashboard. Great work
The creative thought process and labor here reflects your abilities quite well, Big Thumbs up, Full view always, BTW, Loved the video, I was thinking you might just paint the dash???
If it stays "put" I think we call that a SUCESS. Going to look very cool 😎 and is a perfect addition to the budget restore of this sweet ole ride. Headliner should for sure match the dash that would make it even more of a "Weird Beard Custom".
I agree. The headliner should match the dash.
When I watched your last video on the dash I commented that I was interested in seeing how you overcame the big curves. It was difficult but you pulled it off. Very well done Mike.
It looks a million dollars and you've not only saved some money but have chalked up another skill that you can turn to your advantage.👍🏼
It’s going to look really good installed. With the cluster and trim on it.
I think you did a great job and I am in awe of your patience. Your calm approach makes you a good teacher.
Really awesome work! Best dash restoration I have seen!
If I ever have an issue on repairing a dashboard, headliner or anything else on the interior of the car, I'm just gonna go ahead and ask you for help!!! You're a genius!!! Nice Dash!!!!
never thought it would look that good when the project started, another example of what can be achieved with a bit of time and patience and not royally throwing the teddy or the tools out the garage doors.
It's more than ok, looks brand new. Great work Mike.
Mike, I am looking forward to the finished project that custom coupe Chrysler product is going look great. Keep up the great videos cannot get enough of them.
You did a great job on that dash! I used to work in a trim shop to help my Dad's friend who owned the shop. He was an excellent trim man and could do stuff I didn't think was possible, like you on this dash!! It turned out great, you should be proud of that Brother!!
Your patience and attention to detail is admirable.
Nice job that was a lot of work but. You did one hell of a job. Love your work keep it up look forward to the end result. Yes paint the headliner black
Definitely doing the headliner black. Thanks for stopping by Mike.
Looks much better the second time! That vinyl must be tricky to work with. I probably would have tried that textured paint, but your hard work paid off! A black headliner would be nice.
Always use contact cement spray for any upholstery work .
After watching this 3 part series you have earned a subscriber. You are definitely the Bob Ross of Auto Restoration! Well done Sir!!
Thanks for subscribing. Glad you’re here.
Beard you have the patience of Job!
First I saw that dash I really thought it was beyond repair. But wow what a beautiful job you did. It actually looks brand new. You are awesome.
Persistence paid off!
Good job Mike
It looks really great.
👏🏻👏🏻👍🏻👍🏻
Thanks Robert. It was a challenge for sure
Could you paint it with a rubber type of paint
Love the channel.Would like to see more flip cars get the Wierd Beard treatment!
Looks great! Can't wait to see it installed.
Awesome job that looks fantastic really pleased how it came out would have been good to have seen a side by side before and after that dash was trash but you brought it back from the dead
You did great! never seen it attempted that way. As the 70's cars get fixed up, the only dry bodies have sun baked interiors and nobody has replacement parts. You could do just dash restorations and stay as busy as you want to be! Thanks for sharing
unbelieveable! and you showed your gaffes! they're parts of the process! You showed us how to learn from them! Now THAT is what makes this a legit show. wysiwyg! :)
AWESOME job, Mike!! As always, your patience amazes me!! Too cool for words!
OMG Mike you made that dash board look brand new. I mean that dash board looks fantastic, I can't get over how nice it looks and it's all in one piece. Keep up the outstanding work you are doing and God Bless you and your family. 🔥💯💪👍👍🙏🙏☝️
That look’s awesome 👍🏻👍🏻👍🏻Keep the great content coming 👍🏻👍🏻👍🏻🇺🇸🇺🇸🇺🇸
Good to see u back at it! I was wondering last week where the next video was. The amount of patience u have is amazing. Id have tore the whole shop down with that dash after round 1😂
WELL DONE! The dash looks excellent!
Third time was the charm . And once you realized it could not be done fast. You got it right. And looks great. And your going to have your old ride ready ride and style. Thank you for sharing
As someone said before you really are the Bob Ross of car building! Your positive attitude is a breath of fresh air. Fantastic content 👌
Thanks Douglas. I appreciate it.
I knew you could do it, just had to slow down and think it through. Looks good 😊😊😊
black headliner would look great. Nice job on the dash!
WB, you did a super job on that dash a lot of work but it looks the closest to a factory job 5 stars
Such a Great Job Brother, YouTackle Projects No One would have The Ball's to do, You Rock.
Total nightmare 😂
@@weirdbeard8898 but it worked out
I have to take it all back, it turned out so much better than I ever thought it would, good job.
Beautiful work Mike that's sweet!
Thanks Edward. Took a couple tries but looks so much better now.
Looks great man....glad I found your channel!
Man you've taken on a challenge. But you'll do I have faith in you . I'm glad it's you and not me . If it was me it'd be in the junk pile for sure .
Definitely a learning experience. Thanks for hanging out.
You are truly The Bob Ross in car art.
With a lot of patience m8 i for sure kicked everything through my garage.
I had the same sort problem with blackening out the windows of my car.
But after many tries the window is still in there and yesss they are black;)
Those results were amazing once you figured how to work the vinyl. The end result made me think of the top end of '70 challenger dashboard fresh from factory. Great job!
