I used the electrical tape cuz I have found that it doesn't like to "really" stick to blue painters tape all that well and it is more flexible than blue painter tape.

One more pick...

Cool what you did and I respect it fully, I just can't stand chrome lipped black wheels!! My fave is definitely double spoked gun metal. Like 5+ spokes but the spokes are double spoked.

Im thinking about doing the door jams tbh, mine are already getting scratched to hell from dirt that gets in there. Also, any word on what it might look like on a window, thought about doing those little tiny ones on the inside.

That's just what I wanted! Wish they had that 4 months ago when I tried to plasti dip my roof and wanted a gloss finish! Want to see how this looks before trying it myself.
