Hmmmm, I had some black window frame "panels' repainted at a body shop on an Explorer. The coating or whatever it is, came away from the panel. I took it back and they did it again. It peeled in a couple of places again. It looks a lot like a saran wrap type of coating, even feels like plastic. I could never figure out what it was, but I think I know what they used now. :mad:
Just thinking out loud. Have heard of "Plasti-Dip" before, just not in a spray bomb.

i'm wondering how this would hold up on fox body window rubbers. well, we'll see how long it lasts.

apparently what the kids are doin with it, is painting over their emblems, then after it cures, cut out the parts that were too tough to mask.

interesting

i will be trying the emblems on my new dodge ram next week, it's supposed to warm back up outside. the temp drop last night has buggered up my curing time i have noticed. if that works, i'll be doing the rims as well. would make a good rim coating, even if just for the winter.

I think if you want something to last in this finish, you would have to paint it with actual paint. The plasti dip paint is only temporary.

SNAKEBITE 10-01-2011 11:44 PM

yeah I guess if it peels off it's not all that permanent

If this stuff comes in clear, it would be great to spray on leading edge of hood, front bumper, grill, etc before driving to shows. when you get there just peel it off along with all the bugs.

Damn that would be just great, good call ^^^^

Fantastic idea - I guess you could use the black for that (if you don't mind looking funny along the way).

SNAKEBITE 10-03-2011 05:52 PM

^^^I think it would be better than a bra, no-yes
