Did you do this with the tires on, idk if i should take my tires off to do it, or if the coat would be tarnished...?

 

So yeah, what they said:

1) Prep work prior to plasti dip?
2) Can I use this stuff for let's say... the EVO mod??

 

i wouldnt take the tires off.. added cost to what is supposed to be a cheap job.. plus you're assuming whoever is mounting your tire isnt gonna scratch the paint.. which would require a repaint anyway

just clean it really well with soap and water.. maybe use a mild wax and grease remover as well with a soft cloth.. then spray away! I'm also assuming you are going the plastidip route because you might want to remove it at some point? If you are going for a more permanent solution.. scuff with like a 600 grit sandpaper and reclean before you paint

and yes you can use it for the evo mod

 

What colors do they make this stuff in?

 

yay, another blacked out Cobalt.....

 

Dumb that's your opinion that's fine and I did not paint the inside if you mean did I take the tires off...I painted the outside then move into the inside of the wheel. I plan on powder coating my wheels next spring.


1 can per wheel



Just clean the wheels really good with simple green that's it




You can touch it up really easily

 

Wow, this stuff is pure genius. Now i can do my ss/na rims and if i dont like it i can peel it off!

Win!

 

plasti dip evo mod and wheels

 

Anyone tried this on our stock wheels to see how it looks?

 

dur durrr those are the stock wheels haha

 

i think he meant lt 16 inch wheels

 

Your sig is epic

 

the word epic is sooo over used *facepalm* but thanks lol glad u like

 

wtf is this plasti dip!? need to check this stuff out

 

did mine a week ago also the **** just peeled right off amazing once i realized how easy it is for removal

my wheels will get another few coats when it clears up.

no chips or flakes yet.



evo mod aswell

 

yea but has anyone actually washed their wheels yet after to see if they get scratched or if it comes off

 

How can you just peel it off then?

 

Just check out some youtube vids. There are a bunch of vids about it. There is even one guy who did it and then did a second vid 6 months later with how they held up. As long as there is no leading edge for the stuff to start peeling it wont come off. I have had my emblems done on my equinox for a year now and still holding strong

Here are videos for everything you have been asking

 

i hand wash my wheels + reg hose... never used a pressure washer on them yet.

I would think it would come off?

 

Like i said with the rims you wouldnt have to worry as long as there is no leading edge it wont peel off

 

Sorry I meant hilarious

Sooo...is there a gold/bronze plasti-dip? I couldn't find anything but black and white at Home Depot...and blacked out 'balts are overdone.

 

hey look the cars are twins lol sorry did you cut out the bowtie on the caps too and i took mine threw a high pressure car wash no problems

 

That's why it's such an amazing product
