I put a fishing weight behind the handle then did coats inside and behind the handle

You need to do a LOT of coats of the leading edge of the handle where you put most of the pressure
By a lot I mean 5+ if you DD your car and want it to stay looking good for more than a month

Stop being a PU$$ and try it! Its like 5 bucks a can. You can peel it right off if you dont enjoy the look after the 5 minutes you spent spraying it.

If you DD your car, you will want to spray in inside of the handle where your fingers go a little heavier then the others. Plus you cant see inside when the handles closed. The more the merrier inside...

Yeah I agree with the door handle thing, LOL not gonna hold up, I was gonna plasti dip the emblems but buying the pre painted ones are def better!!

I tried the door handles and took them off soon after. It wasn't that they wouldn't last, I just hated the feel of plasti dip every time I opened my door. I like the smooth feel of the OEM door handle a lot more.

Why don't you just take it out and paint them? I would rather do that but I don't go the balls to take it apart since I am pretty anal about things when I mess up haha.

That's probably what I'll end up doing.

The fang area is THE perfect application for PlastiDip. It's rock chip prone, and you can easily do any necessary touch-ups with a small brush and few drops of PlastiDip.

Looks great!

Thinking about doing a bright color with gloss coat over it for the side mirror covers. anyone have experience with removing gloss clear coat plasti dip?

I read on one of the threads that it was much harder to remove (They used a normal gloss coat). however Plastidip has a glossifier, maybe you should look into that.

b1adesofcha0s · 01-23-2013, 08:27 AM

If you use the plastidip glossifier it's not hard at all. If you use a regular gloss, it hardens the plasti dip and makes it a lot harder to take off. Though you could probably still get it off easier with goo gone than trying to peel it off (which is what I did).

I decided to try out plastidip, which I think looks kinda cool, but im probably getting rid of it because of that rubbery feel.

I also added the font and rear Z emblems

figured id post this here too...

plastidip'd my ark grip. hate it or love it

...but i love it. blends in with the black diffuser and makes it look much stealthier. especially since the exhaust is freaking loud.

That is pretty sweet actually.

I want this exhaust. "Freaking Loud"... what do you have paired with it? By itself it shouldnt be that loud.

I have a muffler delete and i don't even think that its "freaking loud"..
