i tried to do this but everytime i would use the handle, the plasidip would
just start to rip off and peel. Maybe spray paint?!?!?!

Yeah, of course you can always remove the handles and spray paint them!

This is just much faster for a quick blackout

If you spray inside the handle part really well, then you shouldn't peel for a few months.

Also, be gentle when opening the handle. I've noticed it strips the dip off when you pry open the handle without the door being unlocked

What? Once you spray initially and let dry, you should be able to peel off the area around the handle so it operates smoothly.

He's talking about inside the handle, not the excess plasti dip that you have after initially spraying the handle. I've run into this problem too where after some time inside the handle starts to peel from repeated use.

I was planning to go for blacked out door handles and tails, but with the orange lip in the back, I was thinking to possibly do some other orange accents. I can't seem to imagine orange handles being too attractive, though... :icon14:

Any ideas?

Yeah, don't really know what you are goin' for with the whole orange + black thing...

But you can always do something like this once your handles are black. Paint the little button orange as well as inside the keyhole. That would set it off a little bit..

Also, you can powdercoat your brake calipers orange. That would probably look good..

Ive also seen people make the z on the rear badge 370Z various colors. As well as the "O" in nismo.

I don't know either, lol. The car had an orange vinyl on the back when I got it. I was going to see what else I could do with it. If not I figure I could just rip off the orange vinyl and go in another direction with it. Maybe black/red.

Has anyone done white on white? Thinking about doing this with the emblems in white also

White has been done many times - It looks great.

Awesome contrast..

That does look pretty sick. But I actually meant using white plastidip to make the handles white.

:yum:

What kind of surface would be good to use as a test application? I want to see this in action and get a feel for how to properly apply the coats before I go spraying this on my car. I've never really worked with any kind of spraying application like this before.

Also would the fact that it's about 30 degrees out now cause it not to set properly?

Certainly.

Have you tried to take the plasti dip off your taillights? I noticed you said to use only 1 or 2 coats but doesn't that make it harder to take off the dip?

Yes, 1 or 2 coats of PD will be such a little Biatch to remove. However, my plan is to just take them off the car and spray them down with Goo-Gone and a few other secret removal products..

I started to peel one of them the other day while on the car, realized it was going to take some serious effort, so i stopped..

But yes, the less you spray, the harder it is to remove.
