Plastidip, my newest obsession

[mckeddie]

Yep, the stuff you dip your screwdrivers in. So I'm pretty much obsessed with this stuff. Been painting everything I can get my hands on. If you don know what it is, then look it up on YouTube. It awesome.

Thin it down with a 50% naphtha or xylene mix, and it sprays out if an hvlp gun perfectly. If you don't like it, just peel it back off like a piece of vinyl. No prep to your paint, and when you peel it off, you can never tell it was there. I've been restriping the camaro about once a week.

You can buy it in aerosol cans, or for bigger things by the gallon. I went ahead and got a 5 gallon bucket for $290. Mixed with naphtha, gives me 10 spray able gallons. Think I paid $14 a gallon for the naphtha. Bought 4 cans of blaze purple from dipyourcar.com to do he camaros stripes.



First thing I tried was some flat black stripes on the camaro just to try it out. Had at least 10 minutes of effort in these in the parking lot at work one day.


Then Went ahead and ordered the purple (to match the head lights).
