As a warning, it looks like you didn't put enough coats on...

If you want to do it right, hop on the plastidip forum. There is a ton of great info.

lol Andrung I admire you so much. Who cares what everyone else thinks, it is your own car, do what you want! I would never drive what you have created, but I still love it because you do.

This thread's epic level has reached that of over nine thousand. Thank you all. Dubstep is great. Sounds best on a Bose stereo system in an RX-8 with the windows rolled down driving slowly through questionable neighborhoods.

Nah, I mostly like metal (Meshuggah, Amon Amarth, Pantera) mixed in with video game music from when I was a kid (Legend of Zelda, Kirby, even Pokemon)

It's a photo of his off facebook, I saw it last weekend and it was covered in snow and the bottom layer was iced over (We live in NH) and we just pulled the snow and ice off and the plastidip help up great. And this was the first time I've seen plastidip over body paint and it seriously looked great in person, just as good as any matte paint job.

I managed to pass by the fence on my way home. I never realized the color scheme until I saw it today. The colors matched perfectly. I only had my iPhone with me so the picture is pretty bad. I will probably go back with a better camera and try again. It looks legit, and I already can tell people at home love it.

Plasti-Dipped Badges

Just did these the other day.. they came out pretty nice!









I've dipped badges before, and I've learned from experience that it's better to spray a light first coat, let it dry for at least 5-10 minutes, and then apply thick/saturated coats. It will dry with less "texture".
