Here's the process of restoring the ash tray.
Torn down, ready for bead blasting.
I worked up from 400 grit to remove the scratches from the lid.
After buffing and filling in the lettered area with charcoal paint. I wasn't sure of the original color so I just picked one that complemented the red and tan.
The knob was lightly bead blasted for better adhesion, sprayed with an adhesion promoter, then shot with a few coats of high build.
Then wetsanded and painted with base/clear.
The main shell was bodyworked and painted, then wetsanded an buffed.
Inner tray (along with the door latches) blasted an painted.
And reassembled, that's the heater switch panel in the background.
