  • Hint: Use a descriptive title for your new message
    If you're looking for help and want to draw people in who can assist you, use a descriptive subject title when posting your message. In other words, "I need help with my car" could be about anything and can easily be overlooked by people who can help. However, "I need help with my transmission" will draw interest from people who can help with a transmission specific issue. Be as descriptive as you can. Please also post in the appropriate forum. The "Lounge" is for introducing yourself. If you need help with your G70, please post in the G70 section - and so on... This message can be closed by clicking the X in the top right corner.

Ok, i attempted this today after watching numerous videos thinking i could do this.. I did 2 tac coats, a few angled coats, 4 medium to heavy coats and let dry for almost two hours and still managed to take some of the "E" off and "5" off on the side.. I let dry 10mim between coats.. It looks really good but i can see the flaws a little... I'm aittle frustrated.. this happend twice today..

Any advice? Granted my Plasti dip can was about 4 years old and its really hot and humid here in FL..

Looks like another trip to Home Depot tonight lol. If i redo it tonight should i let it sit overnight?
 
Plasti is great for hot climate to cure faster...honestly i would checkout Fonzi on DYI car dip or whatever it is called. Get a kit from him and he will reply to all of your emails.
 
thanks buddy,, hey how do you like those Delinte tires?

Since it can be hard finding 275/20 tires at a good price, my buddy's shop always has access to them.
I am impressed. They are not Contis but they are good. The ride is sooooooo smooth. It is a Chinese tire I believe but I have no complaints. For the price and performance it is good. I drive 500 miles a week so I needed a reliable tire on a good budget that adds performance. I am happy.

Make sure you post pix of the final product - Plasti-Dip

Not the best pics... Going to redo the "5.0" since the side of the "5" has lifted. Also going to redo the "Genesis".. I applied to much and to thick.. Going to do 2 tac coats, 1 medium, 1 heavy next time around..
 
Those wings are sweet, I am going to have to consider doing that.
