Plasti Dip Gloss White
 

Ordered all the parts I needed and plan on doing my Nismo stockies, hopefully this weekend. I'm scared :wtf2:

I ordered 4 white cans, 1 black, 1 red, 3 gloss, and the spray can holder for easier spraying. I figure I'll get my "white" offset look until I purchase some white wheels. Also, might help protect the stocks from dirt, grime, and any kind of rock chips. :tup:

Any tips from other plasti-dip users?


***Edit: Pics are on page 3.

i had white plasti-dip on my wheels and let me tell you they are horrible to deal with. if you have ever used black plasti-dip you will see that the white plasti-dip is much "thinner" than the black plasti-dip. i used about 4 cans of white plasti-dip on my stock 19" and it wasn't exactly enough. with black plasti dip, 2-3 cans will be able to do the job. white was just a pita and the fact that brake dust and stuff just plants itself into the plastidip. overall its not too bad if you just want to see how it'll look for a while but after a few months it will start turning blackish brownish.

Did you clear coat them? If so, how many coats?

Doesn't exactly do justice. I drive a red Nismo. :hello:

is that even plasti dip? i dont think so.

no i didnt use the glossifier. but the white in general is very thin. id suggest getting 1-2 more cans just in case.

I really want to see how this white plastidip looks. I'm wondering if it'll do a decent job at blending in my emblems on my pearl white Z. Could look clean.

there's some pictures of my car with the white plasti-dip on my other thread:

and one more thing. make sure you do a lot of coats because if you do thin coats theyre quite a pita to take off.

I'll swing by Ace Hardware to pick up an additional 3 cans. I also heard that white is thinner, thanks for the heads-up.

I plan on Glossing mine, so I hope that helps the dirt come off easier.

to tell you the truth when i did my door handles white i sprayed black over them first then put like 8 layers of white over them but they get dirty FAST !!! lol

it may be tough to find the white @ a retail location. finding anything other than black around here is just about impossible.

Yea, worst comes to worst, I'll just order it online. I read somewhere that Ace Hardware had the additional colors. Lowes and Home Depot only carried black.

i bought mine at ace hardware but they didn't have it in stock so they had to order it for me.

You're gonna need a lot of coats of the glossifier to get where you want and even then it might not be exactly what your expecting. It does get smoother in texture, but it still has that plasti dip feel when you touch it. I put like 4-5 coats of the glossifier on my emblems/badges. You might need 6-8 on the wheels to get them smooth enough to get dirt to come off easier (compared to plasti dip without the glossifier; it will still be harder to clean than the wheels with no plasti dip).

I guess I'll be overdosing on Glossifier.. lol
