I would take it back to who ever put it in, and make them clean it up!

They should take pride in what they are doing, and make sure they cover your dash so nothing drips on it.

This was awhile back. I have already told them bitches to replace the goddamn thing. They did not do ****.

This was on the new dashboard I replaced. Now I am looking for another goddamn dashboard

Its really hardened to this point so not even sanding nor whatever paint thinner could soften thhese suckers off the vinyl dashboard

That's actually primer and it will be nearly impossible to get off without doing more damage to the dash.

call the company who makes the sealant the shop uses and see if they have a remedy.

plastic razor blade? i can't imagine it adhered well to that vinyl, but who knows. that sucks dude!
