This Plasti Dip product is Awesome!

Did you just spray over the key hole on the door? I know we never use it but I was just curious?

Yep. Just sprayed the whole handle.

For Synack. It's a little dusty from a windy night last night (yes my car has to sleep outside until I can sell some of the big stuff taking up my side of the garage).



And now here's the rest of the stuff I plasti-dipped today. Did the Z emblems and peeled off the area covering the light portion just leaving the Z and outer ring black...



And did the front fangs which turned out ok. Up close the edges didn't do so well and it looks like a poor masking job but it turned out good enough for now. I will eventually switch to a better solution.



And the whole package...

What about inside the handle? Did you end up holding the handle open while you sprayed the inside of it? Everything looks great man I can't wait to get home and try this stuff. Now is there something that we can spray to give it a bit of a gloss shine to it? There has to be a clear coat of this stuff right?

So you didn't lift the handle at all and spray? I am sorry man I can't picture it in my head right now for I have been in Afghanistan for 6 months so I can't remember what it looks like on the inside of my door handle right now I am looking at the picture you posted and thinking there is still silver showing from the handle.

No there's no silver showing on the handle unless you physically have the handle pulled out. I sprayed inside the area where your fingers go, just not the area that gets exposed when you pull the handle.

That's what I plan on doing. Spraying the inside finger area but not the part that gets exposed when you pull the handle, no need IMO.

a quick open is to hold down the open and lock button together at the same time rolls both windows down.
