Thanks for all the exc tips. The chips that has peeled off is not clear white but a translucent brown so it adds a darker color to the trims. Only the glove box and center dash trim and ash tray are not cracked or peeled. I assume I should refinish these pieces also even though they don't need it because trying to make them match would not be an easy task?

It is not that important to me to refinish it to original OEM look. As long as it look nice and pleasing and is durable and easy to maintain I am happy.

What about French polish? I have always wanted to try it. I don't think it is the best because it is alcohol based and does not do well with water, but it is easy to touch up and can be polished to a glassy sheen. What do you experts think? Dumb idea?
