Can I use Back to Black on my dash?

My 94 Tercel's dash should be black. But there are places where the black is either rubbed off or otherwise got removed and left blue showing, and other places where there is rust from where DH left rusty parts/tools sitting there a long time.

I have been considering using Back to Black on the dash to restore the color. The dash is not leather.

Is this a workable solution?

Got any other ideas?

You could try it, but it might not look perfect. Try a small area first.

Negatory...Back-to-Black is intended for use on exterior surfaces only. Try Mothers Protectant for the interior...works miracles.

Yes, for Mothers, it's Protectant (or Preserves if you get an older bottle). Meguiar's Tech Protect or Natural Shine also do a nice job.

Always test in a hidden area first.
