[DML] Binnacle repair

["Ed & Roxie Cohen" <rdcejc@xxxxxxxxxx>]

Here is a great fix for cracked binnacles.

 

Mine was cracked and looked terrible.  I took it to a local shop here in
Orlando to get it fixed.  The shop owner said that I can do it myself with a
little ingenuity.  He said to sand it down and use "bondo" body putty on the
dash.  Coat it about two coats each 1/8 of an inch thick, then sand it
smooth.  He then suggested I use a spray bed liner (*used on trucks)
purchased at any auto supply store.  This will produce a textured finish
then paint it gray (my cars color) and your done.  I did what he said and it
can out great.   Knowing how rare binnacles are this is a great fix.  It
took me two days to complete the job and was well worth the effort.
