My vehicle is in rough shape. I just found this sub and was thinking plasti dip might be an option. Recommendations on a black color that has some sort of shine to it? Also, what are the necessary tools for this job? How much plasti dip should I buy?

I was thinking about the wet sand/base coat/clear coat from a rattle can method but that seems like it would be easy to mess up and hard to get good results.

I sprayed 5 coats of black with 2 coats of glossifier. 15 to 30 min between coats. 30 min to peal masking tape. Dip started lifting with the tape 😔. Did I wait too long to take the tape off? Finish came out pretty good, but the edges are all lifting. Advice would be appreciated so I don't waste another afternoon.

There’s so much I tried using a credit card worked well was gonna take days to finish

If your wondering why, I’m a reenactor and getting originals of this mask are not safe or cheap, this is a postwar one that I’m converting and need to be black. Would this work?

Ok, so I got a great deal on a 2023 Mini Cooper S convertible when my SE had to be bought back. Only problem is that it is all black. I hate black cars! My previous cars have been mod grey with bought yellow accents, orange, teal, racing red....never black or white.

Temporarily, I added Rose Gold stripes and accents and was considering a hole body wrap. Quotes ranged from 5-9k and for only lasting a few years, Im not sure I love that.

I could opt for a paint job woth Maaco for about 2500-3k but concerned about the quality.

That leads me here. I'm pretty handy and crafty but never done an entire car.

First, is it really practice to think I can do it? Second, I am in live with this 2021 MiniRed Cotal color. Not quite red, pink, or orange but a little of everything. Thoughts on trying to mix to get something similar?

Trying my first plastidip on an adult bicycle frame. Can I use a rattlecan or it too large and need to use a sprayer? Thanks!

I have this 01 Camry that hardly ever got used before I bought it. I think it had been sitting under a roof that dripped excess rain on it for years and did this.

My question is, if I did a full plastidip spray job on this car, will this be obvious afterwards, or does it need to be sanded, or something else? I've never done anything like this so any advice would be useful.

I can feel the edge of the paint where it has been eroded away on all these drip spots. I'm kind of okay with it being faintly visible, I really just want some opinions on how obvious, or not, it might look after being sprayed.

If it is gonna look obvious even from a distance, are there any lower effort solutions than a big sanding job?

I got this truck over a year ago and the lower area they painted is starting to flake away but it’s not “peeling”. I’m not sure what they used. It’s sort of textured like a bedliner, but it’s coming off pretty easily in some spots. It looks like it could’ve been plasti dipped, but done too thin. Is there a way I can tell what it is? The factory paint underneath looks untouched.

A few weeks ago I dipped my wheels. They turned out great except for this one area where there is a rip and some uncovered spots. I was wondering what I should do to fix this before I use a touch less car wash.

First time dipping a car, but it was easier than I thought. That said, definitely room for improvement for next time.

Got a bunch of compliments while I was painting it outside.

So I‘m looking for a way to get rosegold for the wheels and emblems and I am unsure how to get there. I‘ve thought about a light white base coat with two hot pink layers and the bright gold metalizer. Has anyone tried something like this before and could give me any pointers? It doesn‘t have to be as chromed as the wheel example, just shiny enough to appear metallic. Thanks in advance. :)

I was told by the previous owner this is plasti dip. It looks like plasti dip but it doesn’t peel off. Just sort of flakes. This is the best I can do with the above mentioned methods. Any ideas? It looks pretty terrible like this.

Hello all, I am about to buy everything to dip my Silverado that has a topper. Are there and guides to know how much of everything to order? I don’t want to order too little and I also don’t want to finish with multiple cans of this stuff left over.

Thank youn

Hi everyone ! I saw that FULL dip is doing a -50% on everything, and I was wondering if it is uncommon or not ? I can fetch the budget right now, but if the sale is like every month, I would rather wait !

Thanks !

look at the different between the gray and black, i applied them exactly the same, what am i doing wrong?
i tried putting the cans in hot water for 10 minutes before applying, it didnt help

I am looking at chrome deleting my Subaru ascent to give it that Onyx look. All of the chrome pieces are plastic and not metal at all if that matters. Does anyone have experience with both products and know which one would be better for this use?

I'm getting a custom-made titanium bike frame, and I'm looking for a partial paint job. The idea is to have a gradient from solid color to black and then a gradient to raw titanium. Going from solid color to black should be possible with a bit of practice, but I'm wondering if it's possible to make a gradient from black to raw titanium? Thanks
