Trouble I see is that most dash and pod cracks aren't done growing, so whatever you use its likely to crack again in the next heat cycle.

Long term despite the cost I think best solution is to do a crude patch and level of the cracks and recover with Alcantara.

OTOH that stuff seems cheap enough to pick up some and play with it.

thanks as always mp. true db crack shifts. now say if you fill/fix crack and grows how would keep on messing with the done area pan out, reapplying more to that , if its like chaulking it would liquid in nicely and enough time with damp cloth to wipe it off done area, smooth finish still. If its drying on you while adding to done area and get new on/over the done stuff, smudge, rolling layers, uneven then you try alcohol sanding could be a mess outcome?

how about the vids plastidip rims emblems car pinstriping ext bumpers... cool flexible agent , but dont know. Glad trash bag in a can.
