Gotta love plastidip. I've done my emblems, handles, and wheels. Gotta take it off the wheels so I can sell them.

Doesn't the handles feel weird with the plasti dip on them?

Did you cover the key hole with anything or just sprayed inside it as well?

Csquared I like those stripes. Reminds me of the 3 stripe decal with the s tune kit on the hood. I think I'm going to try that out. Any tips for keeping the cuts nice and straight when removing the tape?

Thanks! I've been experimenting with my friend. We found out that what you want to do is pull off the tape while the paint is still wet if you want a nice hard line. So instead of the 4-5 coats with 15 mins in between to let it dry, mine was done with just 1 thick coat. Rmb to be careful because your tape is going to be wet too. So don't let it drip onto your car or smudge touch and smudge anything.

Finally, wait till your car is 100% cool before you do this. The first time I did this I did it right after i parked. The plastidip bubbled and I had to redo it.

I love plasti dipping. It's like painting for fun on your car and can be removed over and over again.
Off topic, I think I'm going to sharpie artwork on my mirror caps, or find someone more talented than me to do it, then put a clear bra over the mirror covers to keep it, just like that sharpie Lamborghini.

NickTurnon · 01-21-2013, 09:11 AM

You can either do 1 big coat (which i wouldnt recommend)

Or

You can spray 4-5 coats and wait a couple minutes in between. Then, when you are ready to peel, respray the entire area that you want the straight line and make sure the dip gets wet again...then pull.

That way you get 4-5 solid layers, the straight line, and never bubbles.
