Default Dulso....What Year?

Anyone know what year chevy began using Dulso on corvettes? I have been thinking of refinishing my bezel pieces on my 86, but can't really tell if they are Dulso coated. Pardon my noobishness and thanks in advance.

Should be very easy to tell if you have that type finish or not.
The "Dulso" finish will feel like it's rubber coated.
Not a very thick coating, but it still feels similar to those coated tool handles your probably familiar with.

Not sure what year they started with this finish, but I don't think your '86 would have it.

That is what I gathered from the many other postings I found in search, but thought I should get some confirmation. Should be a simple clean, sand, clean, prime and shoot. Thanks all.
