I plasti dipped my rims and wanted to offer a couple suggestions to anyone thinking about it. First make sure to use rubbing alcohol(safe for clearcoated paint) on your target surface after u wash it really well. Any dirt or wax residue will prevent a proper adhesion. Also the distance at which you spray it on makes a huge difference. 6 inches from the surface is perfect, and try not to vary this distance as you continue to apply. Spraying/misting from a further distance will cause a rough texture, which I found out the hard way. Lastly be sure sure to spray your edges well to prevent peeling.

Also the glossifier is great!
