i got this same effect when i did my fangs... a little peel in certain spots... i need to hit those again i think.

:| if it were me, i'd spend the extra dollar to get it done right and professionally.

tip to those doing their wheels, an easy way to cover the tire from the rim is to stick index cards in between the tire and rim and bend the index cards outwards towards the tire.

How I did it:

so were you still able to play poker after peeling off the plasti-dip from the cards?

Did a practice run on the 370z badge, this stuff is awesome. Turned out great. Next in line: rest the emblems, rear diffuser, fangs, and z on turn marker. 5 bucks at lowes, can't beat it.

Tip for those spraying their wheels. You don't even have to mask off the tires. Just spray on. You can peel the over spray right off from the tires.

Kensi · 08-18-2011, 08:53 PM

just a quick question. Even though i had newspaper around i had some overspray since i guess it was quick windy when i was doing it. Is it safe to say, i can clay bar the overspray off? Or is there any other way of getting it off. I havent tried anything yet to be safe.

carvalho360 · 08-18-2011, 10:25 PM

i just rub the overspray off with the palm of my hand, its easily taken off... and it was a hassle to peel off the tire over spray.. accidentally burnt my finger haa

I've heard others say that WD-40 does the trick too!

I painted the rear bumper area and peeled it off. I just thought it looked a little cheap. I used tape to remove the plasti dip that I couldn't peel off with my finger. Anyways that's my experience.

Can you do the door handles with this stuff?
