When I was pulling the plasti dip off my wheels, some of the parts that had gotten really hot took some of the wheel's original finish off with it. I'll take a pic of it tomorrow to show you guys what I'm talking about. This might have to do with my new brake set up though since it seems to get much hotter than the stock setup. I installed Carbotech XP8's a month ago and also took my car on a track session. Guess some parts of my wheels got a bit too hot at some point there.

check out the thinner solution on dipyourcar.com. it will probably take it off. $7

Look at my last post, I already got it off using goo gone that I picked up from Walmart for $5.

Has anyone sprayed the license plate area?

I think that will be my next area to spray down.. Tape off the exterior of the license plate area and get the back portion blacked out.

I want it to be sort of like this guys, but non CF & a little smaller

I'm seriously considering blacking out my front fangs. Looks like taping that area off is gonna be a real bitch, any tips?

NickTurnon 07-03-2012 02:03 PM

Yeah, go to Home Depot or Lowes and buy their $2 plastic wrap. You can just use a little pocket knife and cut out a hole in the wrap to spray the fangs..

wicked! Glad I asked.

Something like this?

20 in. x 1000 ft. Stretch Film-5005002 at The Home Depot

Or this?

Neither- not that intense.

Just walk into a Lowes or Home Depot- Go to the Paint/Tape section and there should be a little case on the end of the isle that has really cheap plastic wrap. In a little cheap bag. Its just for painting a room and laying it down on the ground

$2 TOPS. I think Home Depot is $1.98.

It fits the whole front or whole back of any vehicle

After cutting out the hole for the fangs I would still have to tape the opening down right? Or will the plastic adhere to the bumper without taping?

You still have to tape off the edges, but its much less work then taping the whole car or pieces of paper together

the thinner also has more application than just removal...... but I'm sure you already knew that too.
