Ok I have removed all of the offending spray cans.
Hope it will work better this time
#####################################

Some years ago i thought of fixing my interior in the 46 Ugly Coupe.
And i had read about this method in old Hot Rod magazines.


Started with the doors.


Painted with some orange Hyundai spray paint.



Then soothed everything with my acetylene welder.



Everything is blacked with sooth. DON'T use spray can to lift it from the board :-)



Then crumbled toilet paper in the hand, and dotted the soot.



When everything looks OK stop,or redo with the acetylene. Do not touch with something else that the paper.



The i sprayed everything with spray can clear.



Let it dry.




Stand back and enjoy the result.



Made the 33 dash in the same way.





If you put in some time in it you can get it much better, but it works for me.
And I call it Chernobyl root.


Used the same method on my Ford 42-48 to dashboard with Edsel instrument cluster, But used white as first layer on the bottom
