[@robsresponse2085]

great vid mate! its a "dead" youtube vid but 6 years ago you understood the talking/doing ratio! Great work.

[@aggressivepizza6736]

I honestly think some people hit the dislike button just for the hell of it because this is a great video and there is literally no reason to dislike it.

[@AutoMotivate]

forreal, this is awesome

[@kmfdm665attak]

It's an Australian thumbs up

[@rsnip9888]

I think it's an awesome video and I hit the like button however I could see some people nitpicking and saying that it's not technically fiberglass because he didn't use fiberglass, he used felt or whatever it was and the resin...

[@edlingja1]

For the MDF... I don’t care for that junk; use real, exposed, wood.

[@tylerjohnson4825]

its probably the competition.

[@jacquesbatimba8559]

David Guyton can you build a 2007 Altima iPad mini radio dash for me? If so what does it require or take?

[@jasonlanggin5132]

David Guyton Dude you have got some serious skill 👍

[@edgarlizarraga5163]

David Guyton hey

[@edgarlizarraga5163]

David Guyton how can I get one off these and how much

[@brianmurray9515]

David, you should do a series dedicated to dashes and doors, maybe even put up template plans? Do one for most popular muscle cars, as there isn’t a lot out there, for different designs

[@kevincampbell5088]

So clever nice job makes me feel like redoing my dashboard

[@aintnoway686]

I was actually so frighten and stressed about making pieces fit, but the sway you showed making it made me relax and see i didnt have to make anything from scratch. Thanks! :)

[@garybussy1035]

That resin bondo mix is genius, I’ve gotta try that on my motorcycle parts and truck parts and everything

[@Willsy-]

That was stunning mate!!!! Couldn’t believe how nice it came up!!! Well done 👍

[@dustincrosson7389]

This is one of the few videos on youtube that is actually worth the watch. there are so many shitty glassers out there

[@fernominal]

The finished dash you showed looked good! but I would have liked to see it installed. Great video! thanks for sharing!

[@joselopezpaz8967]

super sick and no boring one of the best tutorial vids ive seennice job two thumps up

[@raymondagbunag851]

Everytime I try to look something COOL from KZbin, I find you responsible! Keep up the good work Sir. :)

[@DavidGuyton]

+Raymond Agbunag haha why thank you! That's awesome

[@lunarmoon1969]

Love the technique, I'm already inspired for many projects that I could adapt this to. The fleece over multiple materials to tie them together is outstanding. Just in this video alone: MDF, Plastic, and Metal married by Fabric and Bondo! Brilliant! Especially stronger than vacum forming on a DIY level. Thanks for sharing.

[@DavidGuyton]

awesome! Glad to be of help!

[@UCanDoIt2Mike]

Fantastic process!!!! Very easy to transfer to other applications and custom needs. Thanks for sharing!

[@DavidGuyton]

if you like this one, be sure to check out my fiberglass engine bay and full custom interior videos using this same method

[@UCanDoIt2Mike]

I did see that one as well. Thinking about doing a custom Engine Cover for an LS swap that I am doing on a Jeep. Since it is just a decorative piece, I am sure your method would be awesome for this. I like the idea of a felt first layer. Sweet!

[@DavidGuyton]

It'll work for just about anything that isn't a structural part of the car....however I should point out that you should use fleece, and not felt....two very different fabrics and if you try to use felt you are going to be cursing at me haha

[@iainrobinson8120]

Thanks for this. Best tutorial seen for a long time and great design perfectly constructed and finished.

[@CLPRPSD]

Just want you to know that, by referencing this video along with the videos from another channel, I was able to successfully apply your process to my entire Chevy truck dash pad which was completely annihilated by the sun. Thanks for taking the time to make this video, your efforts are greatly appreciated!!!

[@DavidGuyton]

Glad to hear that and glad to know I helped to save an old Chevy!

[@wisheye1]

Finished product looks phenomenal! Great video!

[@kezrolg]

if I had 3 thumbs you would get 3 of them up bro. nice work. very great camera focus detailed explanation and thanks for not putting loud annoying music like others lol. I subcribe👍👍👍

[@DavidGuyton]

+Luis Garcia I HATE the ones with the stupid music ruining the videos. I don't know why people DO that

[@kezrolg]

+David Guyton keep up the great work brother

[@glitterydory3488]

@@DavidGuyton will you take request orders ?

[@NickedBlade]

Nice looking dash and the Rondo is a great bonus tip!!! Thanks!!!

[@erikguadarrama1327]

That is so worth the time and money!!! Nice job!!!

[@DavidGuyton]

ATTENTION! If you have questions for me to answer, please comment on the actual KZbin page of the video. For some reason when you comment on my videos that are shared on Google+, I am unable to answer.

[@victorsoto1812]

Hey man love the work. I'm interested in doing my truck i was wondering if i could get some "paid for" help

[@DavidGuyton]

I'm happy to walk you through the process for free, but I just don't have time to take on projects like this for customers. I'm just way too slow.

[@victorsoto1812]

Lol alright how did you work out the gauges to work properly?

[@DavidGuyton]

Well I didn't wire up his gauges, I just made the dash for him to place the gauges into. But your gauges should come with sending units, which you plug into the engine, gas tank, etc and then you just connect the gauges to those wires from the senders

[@victorsoto1812]

gotcha okay I under stand yeah im going to do my whole truck it looks so boring being stock!

[@heatmizer1212]

this is sheer ingenuity gold brother...

[@FenderBender503]

Love these car related videos! You should do more of them! I came here because of this video, but now I’m watching your armor videos. Very impressive work.. 🤤

[@DavidGuyton]

Thanks very much! When I have another car project I'll be sure to film the process and put up another video.

[@bunckybyuncle]

Great video, Dash looks great. Thanks

[@trav17awesome92]

I just stumbled upon this because I was curious what it would take to make one look really nice and I am impressed. Yeah takes a while and some care but that's why it looks like this and not like cardboard. Plus glad to see all the steps and the explanation.

[@allangrant1326]

That’s amazing 🤙 Thanks going to be doing mine soon and your video will help with the process 🙃

[@TheGuitarcovers96]

Dude great job! That looks fantastic!

[@trentonvanloon7082]

Good job on this, came out great

[@desifrazier6860]

Excellent video! You make excellent tutorials. I especially like the bit about rondo.

[@magadamnright3778]

Dude you have some skills, good job 👍

[@chrisl3140]

Excellent video! Very clean and professional work.

[@rayden111966]

Thought it was going to come out bad but after the sanding and paint it looks great. I can only imagine how much better after the carbon fiber dip.

[@jameshutch4986]

Great video for the car/hot rodding community! Definitely subscribed. Very nice.

[@321AUDIO]

This is nice I like the way you think take what is there and make it better that is what i like to do

[@johnpan78]

This is a real Art.Thank you for the video

[@truckin3799]

You make it look easy lol that kinda work takes incredible patience

[@aLLMaK3y0uFaM15]

Really good job. I worked at a shop where they did stuff like this, and yours came out great.

[@ronaldcordova7041]

Excellent tutorial. Thank you for sharing!!!

[@luisrodrigues2409]

Wonderful job friend, really wonderful.

[@BigSarnt]

that is some exquisite, detailed work

[@adammontgomery1405]

Thanks for the great idea. I have been wondering what I was going to do with my falcon dash I think this will work great.

[@johnjude2685]

NICE results, If I change my 2..3 for a 302 this might be a good add on and needed Thanks for the showing and teaching.Like the explanation and lots of tips Sir great job

[@browill9]

Bam! A true on the fly craftsman. I really appreciate your work. Awesomeness. Great vid. Thanx.

[@DavidGuyton]

Thank you! Glad you enjoyed the video

[@Misterfairweather]

Fantastic I might have to try this for a new dash for my Corvette.

[@brianroagers6894]

Thanks for sharing yr wisdom! Very interesting, really cool style!

[@MrSlink99]

That's beautiful Fiberglass Dash Mr.Guyton. I enjoyed.

[@iszack1000]

Thanks David awesome video!!!!!! Can't wait to try it!!

[@johnbehneman1546]

Excellent craftsmanship and so simple. You do awesome work. Thanks for sharing.

[@DDClowers]

Awesome Video!!!! Made pretty simple for those of us trying to learn this skill. Great Job.

[@DavidGuyton]

+DDClowers Thanks! This was only my second time building one of these, so if I can do it, anyone can.

[@shanek6582]

Resin and bondo mixed! Your a genius!

[@dhnaves]

Awesome job. Amazing work. Thanks for sharing!

[@Einwetok]

Excellent video. Thanks for putting it out there to find.

[@hc12132]

Hi...I have watched two of your videos and let me tell you that it is amazing what you do. You make it seem so easy but I know if a try to do it, it's not going to be as nice as yours. Congrats!! And thanks for sharing!!!

[@TheSuthrnfloridian]

Cool, i'll be sure to look out for the video on that as well. For now i think i have enough to tinker with lol

[@shelleywilliams7174]

Nice work.. Fantastic job!

[@XJeric]

turned out very nice man i am going to give this method a try since the dash in my old Chevy luv 4x4 has lots of cracking and i really dig this custom look :) thanks for uploading and putting the seed thought to fix mine this way

[@DavidGuyton]

Glad I could help! Have fun on your project!

[@Haku69]

Hey man - great tutorial! Keep up the great work!

[@DavidGuyton]

thanks! Glad you enjoyed it

[@TheWoodWerker]

Nice! Turned out Great!

[@Maxmgm212.]

Dude that is art!

[@Wrenching4Everyone]

Excellent, and very informative. I have been considering this type of solution to my gauge placement issue. But by fabricating a new console insert, using the method you've outlined, I think I'll be OK. Thanks a lot! :)

[@DavidGuyton]

You bet! I actually modified (heavily) a Mazda console for my '65 Impala using this method. Started some door panel parts from scratch too. It works very well for this stuff....but make sure you have the parts installed on the car BEFORE applying the resin. That way they are sure to fit when you put it back in the car. In this case, the dashboard was stiff enough that I didn't need to do that.By the way here's a pic of my Impala interior, all made with the same method, wrapped in leather'like vinyl (still not finished): i173.photobucket.com/albums/w41/lordguyton/in11111_zps3ade072d.jpg i173.photobucket.com/albums/w41/lordguyton/in2222222_zpse425ee15.jpg

tutorial was excellent thank you!!!

[@DavidGuyton]

thank YOU for watching!

[@kathyrobmaglio4501]

Wow looks great,thanks for the tips.

[@jimmyroder1195]

Looks GREAT!!

[@coburnlowman]

That really is a great tutorial. I have never thought of using filler and resin together. I seen in other post you use Bondo brand filler. I can see you know what you are doing. But 3M makes several great body fillers like all the lite types they have finishes many times easier than Bondo brand. They don't leave air holes nor do they have hard spots. They sand like a dream. Just thought I'd pass it along. The price isn't much different as well. Thanks for such a good detailed video.

[@DavidGuyton]

Phil Lowman can you tell me the name of the other stuff? I'd like to try it

[@Rick_Schott]

Gorgeous work.

[@fahimamf]

Good Job Thanks for the Video David.

[@robertbanks3775]

you sir are fantastic. I'm looking at doing this for my range rover.

[@babak1969van]

Wow dude! this is incredible!

[@SprayWayCustoms]

Nice quality job....very helpful

[@markspears1167]

Man, that is really cool!!

[@anthonyiasbarrone3079]

Good job on this dash nice placement of the gauges and I see you watch sraywaycustoms videos as well your armor is still my favorite thing about you

[@antwancekimble8811]

looks real good. I have a nova I think it's time for me to update my dashboard like this.

[@charliebrown8687]

Dude you are a god with fiberglass working. And metal. Ive seen your armor videos too. 👍👏👏👏

[@DavidGuyton]

Thank you! But I am very much a beginner with fiberglass. Metal...I know a fair amount

[@Apitheous]

Really nice job, thanks.
