As far as possible repair, are you going to put the console back in the same way? If so and it would be covered you could just do an epoxy repair of that small area.

I have never mixed paint with epoxy so I am not sure if that would work or not. There is a product called, Durabak , its a bit expensive but its used for truck bedliners and boat interiors among other things. Maybe you could get some in the same color and use that. Here is a link to their website, Durabak Website Good luck and keep us posted on your progress. Edited by sraab928 on 03/05/08 - 3:25 AM Scott 1974 21' Revenge w Mercury 200 ProXS V8
