So after kinda reading about this, decided to play around with this stuff. Called a good friend that is a union painter, but on buildings, to see if he would come over and help with the masking and what not. He agreed so I am ordered a 6 pack of blue and decided to do my wheels. By the way my car is Monterey Blue, hence blue wheels.
Pics of car before Plasti-Dip:


Start of taping out the wheel:

Lugs nuts done for one wheel:

Trim around the center cap with lug nuts:

Finished taping and started spraying:

Finished product on back rear:

Between taping/masking, spraying everything, then scoring and removal of the tape took around 5hrs for one corner. After doing one we decided to proceed with doing the other three tomorrow. Should finish around 7pm-ish if we start around 9am(will go faster). Will have pics of the car outside completely done tomorrow hopefully. Wanted to do something different, hadnt seen the wheels done this way, but also didnt go through all 40 something pages in thread so I could be wrong. Will also be doing the strut bar and plenum cover where it is silver.
