Mine's due for a fresh'ning.
It was basically the same process as the seats.

1. Serious cleaning / de-greasing.
2. Prep. Light sanding with coarser paper, then finer grit, and finish with very fine grit. Clean all areas well, leaving no fuzz or dust.
3. Filled the pitted areas with the filler product, then a top coat of the filler for an even surface.
4. Very light sanding of the filler product after it cured for a smooth finish. I used a scouring pad for all my final finish sanding.
5. Brush on the dye in several light coats.

Good luck!
