    My Dash is in pretty bad shape. Considering after all the extra holes are filled in, I may try to paint it with hammered or maybe even a wrinkle finish paint. Anyone done this?
    Your thoughts would be appreciated.

    I have linered (is that a word) a few I don’t care for the texture but the customer is always right.

    You could cover it in vinyl. Or diamond plate. I think I've seen both.

    "Hammer finish" Rustoleum would be a lot easier to clean than wrinkle. I've found it to be durable, although not on a dash.

    Really good point!
    Wrinkle would need a brush to get dirt out of.
