It looks good so far! If you dont like the streaks just peel it off and do it again! Sucks to have to re-do it but its nice that its not permanent. I bought a can the other day, I want to black out the badges and maybe the hubcaps

very true, i may just put more on top and see what happens. when you do emblems, don't just tape off the emblem, also spray your paint around it, then peel the parts of the paint. we completely taped off my friends cobalt ss emblems, and when the tape came off, so did some of the plasti dip. gl

Won't that material melt on really sunny days? Also, it seems to me that all the sunlight will get absorbed and transferred to the inside of the car, which might make the cabin extra toasty in the summer...
It does have a cool murdered-out kind-of look, though. Looking forward to finished pics.

I left it at the house and took the wife's car to let it sit. I'll upload pics later. It is about 100 degrees here in Arkansas plus humidity. It's always hot. Haha. I'm back and forth about the look. I'll prob redo the roof and I may even reblack my wheels.

I think that stuff is so cool but it seems whenever people spread it over large areas it looks faded more than anything. Just my .02

Yea that was my experience when I tried painting the roof 1.5. I had the same results TickleTime did, I think its too large of a surface area to paint with cans.. I think using the car kit with them is a better idea or just purchasing vinyl sheets..

I actually did my entire car in the black plastidip a few months ago, came out nice if you like the matte look, this should look pretty nifty.

sorry for crappy pics, shaded under tree a bit. also, some leaves and crap fell out of tree and are sitting up there, ill have to wash and get more pics. I still have to peel extra plasti dip off windows, but other than that its done. dried pretty even up top, got kinda lucky. i'll prob go back and take all vinyl off my car (gas door, stripe, front) and redo then in plasti dip too. also, my friend read about a glossifier (?) you can put over the plasti dip, gonna look into it.

I wonder if the Uric acid from the bird is going to damage this or make it burn to the paint or something. |
