Why not try something that is completely removable? Go for it and peel it off if it looks bad. Its $20... nuff' said.

Would anyone be willing to buy me severals cans of the stuff and ship it to Australia?

Local resellers here are gouging them for about $35/can...

For anyone else looking at this thread. You should newspaper the entire front and back of your car. You would be surprised how far specs of that can go. Easy to get off, but if you're like me, just put the extra newspaper on to prevent it.

I had to clay bar my car to get some off that I had missed a couple weeks ago.

Ouch! Plasti Dip has become more popular, so demand is higher. Retailers are taking advantage of that. OR Austrailia just sucks.

Good luck. I think I'll go stock up some more cans.

Find out how much it would be to ship from the states to Australia. I can get the cans at Lowes for $6.

OK two things, newspaper your entire car, this **** gets everywhere.

And second, slather this on. Do 4 or 5 coats. If you put it on this it doesn't come off well. I have to redo my entire rear because of this. Just do yourself a favor and slather this on THICK.

Also, I don't know who said it comes off easy, but it doesn't. I wanted to take this off my rear emblems to try again, and it doesn't come off the lettering easy. There are little black spots all over it that I can't get. I'm actually fairly angry at how not flawless this went considering how many people posted on here. I'm shocked no one was run into these issues yet. I honestly would just take it off if I thought I could. But since I don't think I can I'm going to coat over it thicker and hope it looks good.

b1adesofcha0s · 04-08-2012, 11:27 PM

Yeah you have to put it on really thick and let it dry completely before trying to pull it off. I had like 11 total coats on my door handles and it was super easy to peel off the next day.

Gauge · 04-09-2012, 08:23 AM

I did 3 coats and it wasn't thick enough to stretch so I could pull it off. Hopefully my second attempt goes better. Still angry. Wish someone would have mentioned that lol.
