Does anyone have a picture of a balt plasti dipped white? What do you all think about a white dipped balt with purple wheels? lol, for my dd

*puts on flame suit*

 

I actually wanted to try purple wheels but at the time I did my wheels the only color they had was gunmetal. I dont know about white but I think black and purple would look sexy as hell! lol let me know if you do purple wheels I wanna see them

also if you dip your car in another color other than white. lol wanted to dip my car but I wanna see how some other balts come out first

 

I have seen a white IS300, looked really good! I have a obsession with the white and purple scheme lol, I am sunburst orange right now, I dont know if purple wheels would look good on a orange car

 

Yeahh I would redo mine black if the gloss spray actually worked. It sucks. Put it on the wheels and can barely even tell

 

Going to take a lot of dip... Only car I know of fully done is slobalt22's black one. Order a few gallons and be the first!

 

ahhh so tempted to be the first. Do you think I should go with cans?

 

Cans suck ***** lol I would use a gun. much cleaner finish and dont have to worry about globs as much

 

Yeah it's Cody's car. Took him 12 hours lol.

 

that cars completely plastidipped? doesnt that **** flake off if it chips?

 

been wondering that too. Maybe if you put a clear coat over it? With like real paint lol

 

thats... not a bad idea

 

No don't clear over it lol. It holds up pretty well as long as you don't pressure wash it. He touched up a few spots and said you couldn't even tell were you fix it. The more coats you put on the better it does.

 

well what if like it does start peeling on some spots lol. I think the clearcoat would be a good idea if you want it to stay haha

the whole point of plastidip is you can peel it off when you dont want it anymore. clearing it would defeat the purpose. plus youd have to use a real spray gun and booth and stuff if you wanted good results, which also defeats the purpose.

 

I used the glossifier on my wheels and it wasnt really that huge of a difference. Did about 4 coats of it and can barely even tell that its there

 

Better pic

 

that flat black is really growing on me lol. My gf would rape me and then kill me if I did it though haha

 

IF i was gonna change my car to flat black. it would be with paint and a matte clear coat.

 

question. you said stay away from it with a pressure washer? how do you wash it then? id be afraid of peeling it off when i go to wash it with a mit and garden hose

 

yeah lol I have like the lowest pressure setting when washing my wheels. Im scared theyll peel. But when I had them black they wouldnt really get dirty at all. They always looked clean. Black plastidip is a real clean color and easy to keep clean im guessing lol

 

I would just wash it gently with a microfiber cloth. Plasti dip isn't meant to be a permanent thing on cars/wheels. Just let's you switch it up for a little bit. I would never do a whole car just because of the time it takes and eventually it would start coming off. But if it does peel that section off and spray it again.

 

has anyone plasti dipped there roof? if so i want some pics cause i dont know if i wanna wrap it might as well just do it my self just like the evo mod

 

The roof is supposed to be the hardest part of the car to plastidip due to runs and drips since your spraying downward and not sideways. Might be less hassle just to wrap the roof. But if it fails just peel the plasti dip right off.


Here's a video guide of how to do your car. Spray gun works the best and makes the process quicker.

And here's slobalt22's original thread on it. https://www.cobaltss.net/forums/appe...cobalt-276428/

 

IIRC 1lowLS did his roof/hood/trunk.

i just watched that entire video. im seriously contemplating it. **** for 225$ to do an entire car. thats freaking nothing. lol

question. are they all a matte finish? i think im liking the idea of white over black.
