Official Plasti Dip Thread?

Since this is the new big thing all of a sudden why not. Post up pictures

Started about 2 years ago, I did the "evo mod" like just about everybody else on here

Got bored of the silver trim

Then I tried out the gold metalizer...pretty cool stuff

Thought it looked weird with a silver radio and hvac controls, so I bought black ac controls and plasti dipped the radio

Had a crack in the front chevy emblem from a rock so...


I wanna get some of the new camo colors and try those out maybe. Whenever I get my springs on the wheels are next.

It has a couple screws holding it on and the face plate just pops right off if I remember correctly. Oh and the volume and adjustment button have to come off too. Whenever I took it off all the little buttons went everywhere so I had to look online to make sure I put them back in the right spot.

I love that cooler on the wheels. Do you know if it peels off just as easy with paint on top of plasti dip?

I'm wondering if it would be easier to take the grilles off to do the evo mod. Was planning to do my wheels, but might end up painting them instead since the glossifier isn't out yet in Canada.

I don't really care for sedans.

That being said..... That sedan is the ****. One of the cleanest I've seen IMHO. How many cans did it take to do that and did you do the roof and trunk lid too?

I did the stripes on the both sides and my mirror caps. Also did the mesh in my front grill.
