    I recently sent several of my 355 interior parts to Dave rocks to be de-stickied and refinished. They came back yesterday in like new condition. Dave's refinishing work is simply impeccable! Just before that I had also bought a reconditioned switch frame (the one that goes around the shift lever) from Dave who used heat to remove a slight warp along the top edge and then refinished it. It also arrived perfect, again just like new. From where I stand, if you need any interior parts de-stickied and refinished, Dave's the man! Reasonable prices, timely delivery and superb quality. You can't go wrong.

    I was thinking the same lmao. Fchat has been a little slow anyway bring on the drama. I thought it was a troll at first. He's right Dave does great work. But might cause some drama here

    Yea. A little oven cleaner and a brush here & there. Good as gold. If you can't do that by yourself at home with the help of some threads on this site...well.

    Best to call SNM.

    Free pub on the board courtesy of some uneducated soul...awesome.

    Extra butter for me!

    Did you do yours yourself? Or SNM? Your right anyone can scrub the sticky stuff off. But can you get the perfect finish and color with the decals perfect and in the right place by yourself ? Doubt it. Going to Dave gives you the perfect finish and color .
    I think that's why many people use him

    I had Robbie do a few of mine and I was the donor for the three panel switch plate for the control panel on the spiders.

    We all know we can scrub off the goo. Can you put it all back with proper labels?

    I see. Why did you you chose an unproven, unsponsored, option for your rework?

    Just curious.

    I LOVE popcorn....

    Sticky No More is the originator and innovator of destickyfication. Countless amateurs and most of the Pros are all using SNM. That speaks volumes to the quality of the service and confidence the community has in SNM. Robbie has stood by his work for years cementing his reputation of integrity in business.

    It is not hard to be part of this community. Our host runs a pretty loose ship giving all of us a very long leash. Yet DaveRocks has been permanently banned from Fchat twice.

    Robbie did my 348. I was highly satisfied (although kinda expensive). I have no experience with Dave's work. Is there a difference?

    One is a pro that has spent years developing the process.

    The other is a guy in his garage in Buffalo.

    Businesses usually start very small. Isn't competition is a good thing?

    Insults and arrogance. Well documented and not pretty.

    I beg to differ. The process was being done by the guy at my shop here in Toronto when he worked for Ferrari long before SNM went into business. He showed me how to do it and I have done a few sets when I have time. I have seen all the work being done by the few that do it and Daves work is second to none. He is not mass producing this work yet and has had the time to perfect what he does. Wether a person is a sponsor on here or not makes no difference to me as long as the work is done well. Both Robb and Dave do a great job but I give the thumbs up to Dave. The colour and texture match is perfect.

    Dave is well liked on FLife. No trolls, no drama like here.

    Competition is good. Wake up guys. Both Robbie and Dave have loyal, satisfied and happy clients.

    Stop acting like spoiled brats with your snarly comments and innuendos. You remind me of high school bullies.
