Several years ago I spray painted my car's emblems and side mirrors. The paint in those areas is now peeling so I'd like to redo it.

I assume I'll have to sand those areas but will the plastidip stick like normal?

I recently got myself an Alfa Romeo GT in black - I love the car, but the color - not so much.

I am obsessed with how they look in blue though - is it possible to get it looking this nice by dipping it? If so, what color and finish should I use?

I'm completely new to dipping cars btw.

I recently bought 4 gallons of camo green I've decided I wanted to go a bit darker than the green I was wondering if I just mixed all 4 gallons of camo green with the 1 gallon of black in a large bucket would it get a bit closer to a dark grey ish?

I have what appears to be an obscure use case scenario for Plastidip. I say that because I cannot find the answer to the following question anywhere. My question is this: Can I make a silicon mold from an object that has been dipped? Sprayed in Plastidip actually. Would the chemical makeup of Plastidip inhibit the cure of my silicon? I typically use a tin cure since my positives are usually SLA prints, but platinum is not out of the question if Plastidip were to provide a good barrier.

I’m having trouble getting these small bumps / “skinny tags” smoothed out on the surface of these hub caps.

I have 6 coats of plastidip sprayed on.

I have been trying to use mineral spirits, but it’s not as abrasive as I was originally hoping.

I have been applying the mineral spirits with a nitrile glove in a circular rubbing motion on affected areas.

Any ideas? Should I be using a different technique or material?

I've had my rims plasti dip for about 3 months I was thinking off adding more glossifier could I just clean them and add more or do I have to redo them.

Hello friends! I want to plastic dip my black wheels to a bronze gold, I’ve seen many videos none of them plastidip the inner barrel just the outside spokes. My question is why!? If I did a bronze on just the outside will the inside not only still be black but also have overspray bronze on it? How would you guys go about dipping the entire wheel or is it not worth the trouble for some reason.

Hello, I was wondering if there was a way to make the dip permanent. From what I've been reviewing with the instructions, the first coat has to be a pealable layer, and then the color you wish your car to be. My question is, is it necessary to put the peelable coat on first, or could you keep putting on layers of the intended color?

Very new to all this, so far I'm wondering what are the feasible options to changing the color of your car economically.

Plasti dipping the fender flares and followed a video exactly. One side turned out great! This side… not so much. Any tips or feedback is appreciated.

I wanna clean them but don't wanna buy anything else and I have enough glossifier to do both headlights. Just need to know If anyone's done this? If not can someone suggest a good sealer for the headlights?

I'm trying to figure out a way to secure large 20-30" helium filled balloons in a swimming pool without damage to the pool floor. I was thinking of using a 3" x 3" x 3" wire dobie concrete brick (usually used to support rebar in cement pours). Would either spraying it or dipping it in plastidip create a soft/rubberized texture that would not scratch or mare the swimming pool floor?

Does anyone know I'd there is anyone in Vancouver you can get plasti dip by the gallon?

Never even used spray paint prior to doing this, theres a slight learning curve to getting good even coats but even with the mistakes it looks great unless you are a foot away inspecting the rims. 10/10 recommend👍

Im a complete noob when it comes to dipping or painting, how many cans should i buy for a 2021 mazda3? I wanted to do the luxury metal black but i know i need a base coat of matte, will i also need glossifyer on top of the luxury or will it be good on its own?

I’m hiring an experienced dipper to dip my car “Shadow Black”, ordered from DYC. Dude plans on not using a matte black base, just going straight to shadow black. He says he’ll just do a few extra coats of the shadow black instead of that. Any thoughts on this? I’m brand new to plastidip, so I appreciate the feedback. If it matters, Car’s original paint is red, very sun faded and peeling.

I got cans of dip about a year ago, they're a mat white finish and look like shit now. I'm looking online and I keep seeing the same white spray can and cant tell if its glossy or not. would I need to get the "Glossifier" can? it seems like common sense but wanna be sure, I want a white glossy finish if that helps clear up any questions.

edit: forgot to add, would using a presuare washer on my wheels be able to get my current dip off easily? or I need to take like a back side of a sponge to the current dip to get it off if it doesn't peel off properly.

Ive got a car that needs to be repainted due to chipping, but I also do not have the 7500 to get it done. I am saving, but.....
if the paint has chips or loss of clear coat, can I sand down the uneveness and then dip it? will the dip come off if the paint was sanded and is not smooth?

Basically I did 2 of my wheels yesterday, luxury metal black 5 coats. Then I did 2 coats metalizer, and 3 coats glossifier. I liked it better before the metalizer.
Cut to today and wheels looks better than pre dip. But I want to go more black. Can I just use the rest of my luxury metal black over the glossifier to get it back to black and then glossifier again? Or do I have to peel and start over?
Learned my lesson, the other two tires going just black and glossy, as they are yet untouched.
