Over the last week or so, I’ve restored the center console, and I couldn’t be more pleased with how it turned out. Lots of sanding, painting, wets sanding, and more painting. After testing several colors and settling on a less than perfect match I painted, when I went to Lowe’s to pick up some satin clear for the final finish, I decided to look one more time at browns. Low and behold Rustoleum Dark Walnut. It’s a damn near perfect match other than being a gloss, it matches the unfaded dark brown perfectly. You can’t tell the unaged underside of the console from the outside now. I ended up going with rustoleum satin clear, just to knock down the shine a little on the final finish.
