DIY: How To Blackout/Plasti-dip Handles

Wabbyyy

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...

Any ideas?
