Plasti-dip rear bumper/valence

anyone do this?

I just recently found out about plastidip and its coolness
I've been wanting to get those rear vinyls for the bumper, but if its possible to plastidip it, then id rather do that than spend $40 on a vinyl

anyone do it? how did it turn out?

Another member did his diffuser on his sedan. It's my turn with my desert platinum coupe

The can

Need to prep the paint, wash off the diffuser and mask off the area.



All that newspaper because my father was concerned about overspray.

Final shots:



You need to be careful removing the tape as the plasti dip sticks to it when peeling off. I'm gonna redo the edging later.


Gotta rep driver:

Smitty^ agreed the edges look bad but the finish looks pretty good on the rest of it. I like that flat black look. I wonder if you can rattle can clear on it to give it some shine?
