Just finished Plasti-Dipping my front and rear emblems

Looks like you need a few more coats, very close though.

Atm121990 · 03-07-2013, 04:26 PM

i didn't remove anything, expect both side mirror cover. Everything else just get a wild tape so it won't over extend to where u gonna plastic dip on. Hope that helps

A lot places that sell spray paint (Home Depot, TrueValue, Ace, WalMart, auto parts stores, &c) will carry PlastiDip. The bigger the store, the better your chances. HomeDepot advertises PD on their web site.

I haven't used the stuff ... yet. I like the way it looks on the door handles and fangs and will probably end up doing at least one of those eventually. I'm just following this thread to see what other ideas ppl are coming up with.

Most of the durability problems I've seen on here have to do with wear on the door handles and rock dings on the fangs. Going by the lack of other complaints, I'll venture that you can use anything you'd use on the factory paint. Maybe someone with experience will chime in and confirm/deny that.
