Thanks! I've been experimenting with my friend. We found out that what you want to do is pull off the tape while the paint is still wet if you want a nice hard line. So instead of the 4-5 coats with 15 mins in between to let it dry, mine was done with just 1 thick coat. Rmb to be careful because your tape is going to be wet too. So don't let it drip onto your car or smudge touch and smudge anything.

Finally, wait till your car is 100% cool before you do this. The first time I did this I did it right after i parked. The plastidip bubbled and I had to redo it.
