Default Is my center console unsaveable?/ Silicone spray nightmare

Ohh boy....I carelessly sprayed CRC Heavy duty Silicone spray lubricant onto my t-top's weatherstripping (on the car) and oversprayed a tiny bit down onto my center console and it bleached a small dot and a slightly larger run/drip. I have tried it all to get it off including Mother's Back to Black. I can live with it for now, but I know that it will always sort of bug me. Does anyone know how to fix it?

More than likely you will have to re-dye/paint it. If you find a perfect color match you could just do that spot and blend it.

You should be able to find interior spraypaints at your local auto parts stores.

Did it get on the console shell or the console lid? Or the shift plate? You could just go to the junk yard and get a replacement part for you console. Should only cost about $15-$20 depending on which part you got the adhesive on.

^^^ yep depends on where you got it. new lid and new shift cover can be had but console is hard to find. can use vinyl paint.

Thanks. Yeah it's just on the top part of the console, not lower half and not on the lid of compartment. I'll have to check the boneyards for one. Be careful out there with silicone spray!

Another option if you can't find another cover is to buy an armrest cover.
