See if dust gets on it easily, if it does, you'll want to cover it with a cardboard box or something.
Remember, if you mess up, let it dry first. You'll cause a bigger mess if you try to fix it before the paint has dried.
Make sure you do it in a wide open area or, if you're going to construct a make shift paint booth, make sure to wear a mask. Actually, wear a mask (with proper filters, not those cheesy paper masks) anyway, they're $30 at homedepot.

I've watched videos from DipYourCar on how many coating is good for rims, etc. but my worry is maybe it being uneven?? I mean, it sounds simple to do, but if it were really that simple, why don't people dip it themselves? And yeah I planned on doing it in my driveway. I might give it a shot. If I end up ******* up, should I continue spraying to get a heavier coat for it to be easier to peel off?
