Neat little color changes

[Bogus]

only kidding

I will not do any interior parts with the dip, not that comfortable with it.

peels right off, i diped the light grey parts of my car and infact i diped my front doors but i removed it due to not wanting to keep touching it up. the dash looks good but thats the extent id do inside and even that is tmep till i can figure out how to completely remove the interior trim and afford enugh paint to redo my interior. i just hate the interior of these things, that toped with my dealer kinda lieing about the darkest available color makes a great diy project

is anybody worried about the "ghost" effect of the plasti dip after it is peeled off when you no longer want it on your car or are you going to keep touching it up as long as you have the car

no idea what you mean ghost effect, as for what i dip its gonna stay no touch ups needed except on the inside which will be replaces with legit paint once i figure out how to remove all the parts inside my car to paint.

Im talking in general to people that have done things to the outside of their car. Im talking about if you put something like a decal on your car and after a year or so you take it off, it is darker than the rest of the car, the paint fades because of the light and uv rays but not where the decals are because it protects the paint,

It does protect the paint,.... just vinyl wrap the whole car. opcorn:

ah well unless you are doing a overlay or something i doubt it will be an issue, most that i have seen are just bow ties/trim ect and i that is a non issue imo.

 

[michaelracer]

I was wondering cause I'm planning on doing a little something on the hood and the sides of my sonic

 

[doreo]

i can see how that will be an issue then, i wanted to do a graphic from chevy but then decided that for resale value i wouldnt do it, cuz years down the road it will fade around it and when i went to sell it if i had to pull the graphic it may be an issue, basically it comes down to what you like and what you are trying to do with mods.

i plasti dipped my front bumper and i havent had any problems with it! i find its easier to clean the bugs off of then the actual paint. and it gives it a meaner look!!:banana:

 

[emorejnayr]

I plasti-dipped every bit of chrome and did my rims, now part of the murdered out sonic club, black on black FTW

 

[CoHPhasor]

Ahh plasti-dip, now everyone can paint.

You did a clean job on the grill, I just don't like how big the mouth looks unseparated.

 

[Bogus]

WOW KJ23F the grill painted black looks GREAT! i really wanted to see someone do this before i did to see if it looks good. nice!


EDIT: Can you take another pic from the front but a little farther away? I'd like to see a few more angles/perspectives.

The "face" of your car now looks like a blow-up doll.

Pic of the stealth sonic, please. I'm planning on getting a black sedan this week and doing all the chrome and bowties, but I probably won't do the rims. I'd like to see how that looks anyway though.

 

[Javiero]

KJ23F the grill looks sick! I'm gonna do something similar now. Thanks!

 

[emorejnayr]

I'll post some pics when I was my car because it's super dirty

 

[Bogus]

So how does plastidip work? You just spray it like spray paint? And peel off what you dont want or tape it off or what?
