Anyone ever Plastidip wheels before?

Might try wheels at some point too. Would wheels take a long time to do? If not, we could do those on Saturday too.

We may not have enough time for the wheels. I did just check the forecast for Sat. and it looks like we should be good for the morning - scattered storms aren't due until the afternoon. I also don't have enough jack stands at the moment to get my whole car up (only have 2 + my hydraulic jack) so I need to borrow my friend's other two so I can just do all four of my wheels at the same time instead of one side at a time lol.

Here's a couple shots of Kenny's (Solid Katfish) fangs and rear valence he did with plasti dip:

Default The black finish

Has anyone tried putting armorall on the rims for a more glossy look.
Has anyone tried to wax or polish the matte finish?

Tried clear coat, but that's about it. Didn't work out.
