Here is said write up

DIY - Matte Black Emblems - Plastidip, no emblem removal required! - Club Lexus Forums

i thought everyone already knew about this, so thats why i didint bother doing a full write up

 

[thomaschila]

I'm gonna give this a try on my emblems this weekend

 

[willthehill]

I'm also doing this on sunday. I would right now but i'm on vacation. Looks so legit.

no need to sand...


I just did my grill today, will post pics later, and i also washed my car and the plasti-dip on the emblems held up, and here in toronto i found it for 14.99, only at home hardware tho, home depot didnt carry it

Im waiting for pics! Mine is starting to fade/chip and im trying to find a cheap way to make it look nice again

Grill Pic...

It came out VERY WELL, it covered all the stone chips, and i even covered the chrome outline to the grill.
It's definitely the best/easiest way to cover up stone chips

Look ur going Dip crazy!!!

Good job + rep.

 

[reodan92]

Wow that looks great, my grill is off right now and is about to get dipped

Also what do you guys think? I kept the middle part of the "L" dipped, I sort of like it but I'd like some feed back on it.

 

[steven1888]

take out the middle part.. it will look much better

 

[Artiewhitelex]

Ive been using this stuff to water-proof my R/C's electronics, now i have another use for it haha, i think im doing my grille with it since i have no emblems on my car

 

[digger08]

I love this stuff - it works awesome on exposed rusted bolt heads in the fender wells too.
