Just got a 2002 supercrew 5.4 2 wheel drive. Leveling it out this weekend and putting 33s on it. New honeycomb grill. Clear headlights and windows getting tinted. Pretty clean truck. Any suggestions for flaking color on dash panels? Have two smalls spots. I have seen these trucks flake off pretty bad and want to stop it and cover it up if possible.

Pull the dash thats peeling and lightly sand and paint in super thin coats.

I believe Krylon Fusion is the paint to use.

+1, Don't use the interior paints found online. They never look good and peel just as fast.

I would consider the products that LMC Truck sell for this. I haven't used them yet, but I'm sure they'd be high quality and they use your original color codes.
