TK, how flexible is that Leather filler?

How thick can you apply it with it still be flexible?

Thanks for the tip!

Last year, I redid the dash pad from my '65 Caddy Drop Top. The original pad was so dry that it kept cracking. I tried using regular body filler which was way too rigid, then I tried Polyvance's 2050-9 Padded Dash Filler which also dried too stiff.

I ended up stripping and re-foaming the entire dash pad. Which I did not want to do with this truck
