| Description of the problem | The dashboard in my car is slowly breaking down. The composition of the materials has degraded, over time, so bad that it has lost its surface texture in areas and is now smooth and highly shiny/reflective. The sun is now reflected on to my window shield and i am completely blinded and unable to see the road, pedestrians and cars in front of me. |
