How to practice plasti dipping?

Start with small things first. Scuff up a plastic water bottle and practice on that. Try to get an even coating, close enough not to get overspray everywhere but far

Start with small things first. Scuff up a plastic water bottle and practice on that. Try to get an even coating, close enough not to get overspray everywhere but far enough not to cause runs. Find out how many coatings you want to apply for best coverage, etc. figure out proper drying times for your area. See if dust gets on it easily, if it does, you'll want to cover it with a cardboard box or something.

Remember, if you mess up, let it dry first. You'll cause a bigger mess if you try to fix it before the paint has dried.

Make sure you do it in a wide open area or, if you're going to construct a make shift paint booth, make sure to wear a mask. Actually, wear a mask (with proper filters, not those cheesy paper masks) anyway, they're $30 at homedepot.
