Today i knew i was going to paint my new subwoofer box with plastidip. i was just messing around on youtube and looking at videos of guys using it on their emblems. so im all like its only 6 bucks so i picked up 2 cans. i did my sub box and my emblems today and i gotta say it looks pretty sick!! i did about 5 or 6 coats on the honda "H", the "accord" and the "lx". It turned out amazng and wasnt too difficult. All you gotta do is spray on a few coats and peel away what you dont want. the only hard part was on the "accord" inside the "a" and the "r" and even then it wasnt even that bad. i used a tooth pick to help me lift the rubbery film off. inbetween coats i waited about 15 minutes. and then when i was done with the last coat i waited like an hour for it to dry more so it would peel off easier.

I would be afraid to get any of that on the body lol. Looks like it came off nicely though. Good work.

Thanks guys!! :) and if u guys decide to do it, make sure you go overboard with the newspaper, I had what I thought was enough but I got some overspray and its annoying to get off unless its a thick layer.
