I'm actually going to be doing this to my car. Want to see how black looks on my wheels. Maybe I'll even order some new wheels

That's strange. Usually their customer service is top notch. Do they have a phone number you could call? Sometimes companies just forget about email when they get busy or behind.

I did black with silver. I didn't add enough silver so it looks more black. I asked dipyourcar.com if I should Peel and start over they said wipe down the wheel add a coat or two of black then after that dries add silver. Its so cool this product is so easy

BTW. Don't know if you want them glossy or not, but the plastidip gloss stuff doesn't work real well from my experience... lol
Damn, beat me to the punch! At least I know it's going to look good.

Here's my Gunmetal Dipped Car.

In person it looks more gunmetal up close, but like the photo, far away it looks black.



The wheel on my car is gunmetal, you can tell by the edge, and the wheel off my car next to it is black. The paint is still wet, but you can see that it's not the same color.



I think today, I'm gonna wipe the wheel down add a coat of black and start adding more silver metalizer to see what happens.

So it's been raining like crazy here the past few days (flooding all over the roads).

Driving home yesterday, I took a lot of huge puddles at a decent speed. Fast enough to cover the car, blow water high in the air and make it sound like my bumper and fenders were going to fly off.

I figured for sure that my plasti dip would come off, in hopes of making it easier to remove it this weekend... but no... it stayed on, perfectly intact. Not even a chip off.

This stuff is absolutely insane, I might coat my house in it.
