Just make sure you do plenty of coats. I plasti dipped my wheels and was running out so I did less coats, and it was a ***** to take off...

paint it, plasti wont last nearly as long as a good paint job, just simple science that the paint will hold up better after wear and tear, the plasti will probably get small particles like sand and other debris stuck in the front, and you cant buff out scratches or blemishes on that stuff. i guess it wouldnt be a bad temporary paint solution and would look better than rattle can, but dont expect it to be long term

this sounds kinda neat.... and if you hate it you can just peal it off?

is this stuff hard on your paint or if it's on there too long do you have to sand it off or what?

I wanna research this sum more! :D neat idea... I wanna do my lip and maybe hood roof and trunk...

they have all sorts of colors with a sprayer on the dipyourcar.com site... it sounds kinda neat! :D

(edit) they have videos of it just peeling off but I wonder how big of a window you have that you can just "peel" it off... cause if it's a big window I think this would be kool for like your wheel and lips n stuff during winter to kinda help protect them from the elements
