Do you have any close ups? It's a bit hard to make it out from a distance. I think I'll try it but I'm debating between a few colors right now.

Finally got a chance to use the anthracite grey on my handles after seeing a couple pictures and it came out great. Also sprayed a few coats of glossifier. The glossifier made a huge difference on the emblems that I had dipped.

Did the same thing, but need to redo them.

It's been awhile since I've checked in, here my latest project: Blue Silk Pearl. I mixed the Pearlizer with some blue pigments to get this sweet color. Wheels are anthracite.

Any advice on how to remove poorly placed plastidip? Thanks!

Trying to remove it but it was so thin that it is hard to get rid of it. Here is the pic.

Or WALMART and buy a few bottles of Goo Gone. Throw the bottles in a spray bottle and let it soak for around 5 minutes. Make sure you have TONs of paper towels or rags.

Go to Dipyourcar.com there are plenty of examples of pearl white dips, plus there is tons of info on how to do it right. I have an OE Pearl White Z, the PlastiDip Pearl White is pretty darn close to our OE color, just a shade off (a little more "creamy" looking)
