As some of you may know I plasti dipped my side skirts way back for the track. Looked great and lasted against the abuse. But when you spray this on FRP material and not a smoother surface good luck getting it off. Boy was that a chore. Would not just peel off. Goo remover just made a oily mess of it. Brake cleaner did a great job but was still work. Finished it of with snading it off. Now my skirts are going to be painted.

did you try any of the thinner that dip yourcar.com makes?

I'm gonna be taking some stuff off this weekend and fixing a couple of small issues. ill let you all know how it works.

Also I've found the thicker you put it on, the easier it is to remove.... haven't tried it on a unfinished surface though....

I didn't bother looking on there site. Just did a quick google search. I did put about four coats on it. I just think it has to do with the material I sprayed it on. It held up great though.

When you guys plasti dip your rims, do you guys do the inside too or just the face/spokes of the rim?
