I Love Plastidip!

Yeah, I said it.

Its cheap, easy to work with and can be painted.

If I Plastidip my wheels and scuff them up I can take them off and throw a few coats on and have my wheels back to the way I like them.

I'm not poor but I don't have extra money just laying around for me to powder-coat every accessory I have a mortgages, student loans and insurance which is enough for a 23 year old.

So as the thread states....I love plastidip. Call me rice. Call me cheap. I am merely speaking the truth.

Winter Wheels-


18 OEM-Don't know what I'm going to do with them. But was bored so I Plastidipped them.

Just some wheels.

I am seeing these plastidip threads also where people get flamed to death for plastidipping something. I am defending the plastidippers. Who gives a **** if it isn't paint and what it feels like. If it looks okay in the owners opinion then let it go people.

My point is that if I had painted them matte black people wouldn't hate as hard as me saying I plastidipped them.

That looks terrible....

Jarvo had you said you painted them it would have been better since paint takes work. This is sprayed on and looks like ****.

Do it the right way or not at all. You could have prepped these, primed them and painted them for less than $50. But you choose to use plastidip which looks like absolute ****.
