I decided to play around with some plasti dip that I had laying around. The car will be entirely shot black with the next few days

 

I hope that black holds up in the heat of modesto! I'm diggin it tho, it'll look nice

 

What color paint will you be applying over that primer?

 

It's not primer, just black plasti dip

I'm going to do all black until summer rolls around then going to change it to matte white plasti dip for the summer months!

 

I think he can read... he was being sarcastic and making fun of you... just fyi

 

I gave him the benefit of the doubt.... Lmao

 

Mike this thread disappointed me.



I was thinking more along the lines of you did this: http://cdn2.holytaco.com/wp-content/...s/gomes1_0.jpg

I'm telling you it's the next big thing. Think of all the fun you get to have peeling it off slowly.

 

You find me a sweet Asian girl like her and will do the same! Lmao

 

A lot of people are going to be disappointed in you but who cares! Its your car! I plastidipped my interior pieces, the ones around my vents and around my stereo and they came out pretty nice. It looked better than the silver it was before IMO. A lot of people are gonna say its not meant to be used on a whole car blah blah. It looks nice and it will look nice, of course not as good as vinyl or a paintjob but you didnt intend it to look STUNNING or anything, you knew what you were buying. I thought about doing my whole car matte white but my paintjob is so chipped up that I'd have to sand stuff down to get it to stick right and I could probably get a paintjob through people for the same price if I do my own prepwork.

 

I'm sure they're are plenty of people who are going to be like WTF? I am doing it for fun and I like that I can change the color whenever I feel like it without having to repaint or revinyl the car each time which is costly. To shoot the whole car is only around $150 compared to 1k for vinyl and 2-3k for a paint job!

In the end, it's like you said... It is my car and I'll do what I please with it

 

Looks nice!

was the roof hard to do?

 

Not at all, just time consuming

 

Looks pretty good Mike! I will say make sure you lay it on THICK because when it comes time to peel it off you want a thick layer you can peel off in big pieces. I remember doing this on a set of wheels and it took me a good 4 hours to take the plastidip off one wheel. Just a heads up if you didn't know already. I look forward to seeing your results!

 

Thanks man!! I plan on thick layers as I did some research prior to painting that the thicker the better. I even seen a matte WRB and now really thinking that maybe my choice and do my Tarmac II's Gold

 

Precisely, good thing you did your research. I am not very patient when it comes to painting and coating so I could never do this haha.
