Plasti-Dip!

somerandomguy175 · 09-19-2012, 06:03 AM

Hey guys I've been watching a ton of YouTube videos on this stuff! I'm a whiz at taping and spraying so I'm thinking of giving this stuff a whirl...who here has used this and if you have any pics please post along with pros and cons! I'm actually thinkin of doing my rims, hood, roof, and trunk to get that 2 tone look with flat black.

Thanks!

I've used it on my grill, front lip, and bottom inlet. Awesome stuff and very durable. All you have to do is clean the area and spray.

Do you know of anyone who used it on their paint? And can I still wash my car like normal?

Yes, I'll seen pics of a whole car done, it will stick to paint. It basically turns to rubber once it drys. If you're not sure, just try a small area and drive around for a few weeks. If you don't like it, just peel it off.

i did my wheels this weekend. OZ Ultraleggera's, one was a new wheel and the clear wasn't peeling, so i did not scuff it up. the stuff still stuck just fine. really pleased with the results.
Before

Taped off. only did this on two wheels, because i realized it didn't make a difference. Overspray was not an issue on the other two.

Final product. it might still be in the process of drying in this photo. light hits it differently than paint, but it looks like a stock coating.

i took me 4 cans to do my wheels to my satisfaction. i put 4-5 coats on every surface, and the first was a nice light one.
