We tried doing the roof today, but it didn't turn out so good. The plasti dip itself was find if you want a matte finish, but I wanted a glossy finish. When we tried putting on the clear coat, it left a white residue when it dried so we decided to just take it all off. I think it might have been like that because it was too hot outside while we were doing it. The can said to use only up to temperatures of 90*, but it was definitely 100*+ out today. We will try doing it again some other time in Solid Katfish's shop to get some better results. If that doesn't work, I will just do the wheels and get vinyl for the roof.

Here are the pics I took. The last two pics show the clear coat we tried. We only put the clear on a small strip on the right side of the roof just to test it out.
