looks ok, but you need to do.

1. mask off the outter area
2. Spray long even coats so no blotches will show up.
3. Make sure ur masking lines are sharp and straight, this way it will show up good vs looking like a hack job.

Keep pluggin away

Here is everything I have done with plasti dipped (clear and black). =)

Here's my SD grille plasti dipped then added 2 light coats of clear over the emblem and horizontal bars. I kept the mesh and emblem base without the clear.

My friend's IS250 wheels I did a while back.....also added a few coats of clear to give a nice satin look.

This is my winter wheel set I plasti dipped over a year ago. Without the clear.....After a while is does become a pain to clean so I would recommend some clear.

I used clear plasti dipped as primer then added engine enamel paint for color. Reason why.....once you get tired of the look you can peel off the paint with no issues. Just make sure you add enough coats.....thicker the coat=easier to peel off. Also, tons of peeps on other car forums are using the clear and black plasti dipped as primer on their wheels then adding any color paint they wish to use.

[sway162]

Thanks Jason! Yeah, I def recommend.....it stands against daily driving better than any other paint I have used. Too bad....I no longer have the grill, sold it not too long ago.

Thanks.....I used the duplicolor wheel clear paint:
Dupli-Color :: Wheel Coating

I waited about 30 min before adding clear coat.

Alright good deal thanks, I just did my gf rims and only used one can for all four. What do you usually do can wise for all four rims? I only got a light coat on them right now but still came out pretty good.

 

[sway162]

Yup, for sure man. I would at least use 2 cans for 4 wheels. I did almost 3. If you don't plan to remove paint off then 1 should be okay but the more coats, the easier to peel off and more protection....especially during the winter months.

 

[PEndl303]

alright thanks sway

 

[Ambitionz]

yea 2 or 3 cans on you're rims is the safest bet. Taking this stuff off with only one coat is hard as hell

 

[tc02is300]

Alright so anyone done their dash yet... I'm itching for some pics

 

[vissi]

I bet to make it look good on the dash you will still need to sand it down and get all that gunk off. That was like 90% of the pain when i did mine.

It looks like its durable enough though

 

[saajlexus]

pictures?

 

[ShagginWagon]

i dipped my dash, just make sure to prep and get the really bad melted spots as even as possible before spraying. its holding up great!

 

[madchyers]

Pics or it didn't happen!
