Is Plasti Dip on the front grille easy to take off? I'm thinking it may be a pain but I'm considering a temporary black-out on the grille.

It is very easy to take off but something with so many different angles and small crevasses like the grille might be a little more difficult. It will come off just might take some time getting it completely clean

im ordering plasti dip now on a 08 Blue Slate m35 to do the wheels and possibly grill/accents, should i go with black or smoke? any opinions. eventually going to get black window tints as well, but plasti dip is a much cheaper upgrade for now, should black tint affect my dip color? anything helps guys

I like the first photo a bunch. Not a fan of the stock rims flat black, though.

It took about 40 minutes per wheel, 5 coats and waiting about 5 minutes in between. I removed my wheels when I did it instead of covering the brakes so that took however long. I only used 2 cans but probly should of bought 3 bcuz once I looked at them in the daylight I missed a couple spots some how. here's a daytime pic, the specs are just road debris btw.

Has anyone tried using clear on their plasti dip job?

I am considering trying it on my grille after the black plasti dip job.... anyone have any results?

Post by **GQM45s** » Mon Oct 01, 2012 6:05 pm

Make sure the black plasti-dip is dry before you put clear coat. It works great.

Post by **GQM45s** » Wed Oct 03, 2012 8:04 am

Sounds like a plan!

Post by **GQM45s** » Wed Oct 03, 2012 10:17 am

does anyone know if any clear coating will work? I have to wait for this stupid order to ship and I would like to get this done as soon as possible

You can try the paint clear coat but make sure that plast-dip colored coating is dry and is particles free if not you will have weeping plasti-dip.

I'll give it a try and see how it goes... i guess the worst it can be is that i have to dip my grille again?

Post by **kingcnc91** » Wed Oct 03, 2012 8:36 pm

tomorrow I will be doing major plasti dipping to my M... pretty excited

Post by **GQM45s** » Thu Oct 04, 2012 6:27 am

what do you plan on dipping?

Post by **kingcnc91** » Thu Oct 04, 2012 6:53 pm

WELL plasti dip is cheap and I work at Lowes so its cheaper for me. A buddy and me did my wheels, grill and a few emblems. I will soon get the roof wrapped gloss block along with all the window trim. Spring time I'll powder coat the wheels semi gloss but for now and $17 I'm happier than I was before today.

Post by **cmesurf** » Thu Oct 04, 2012 7:13 pm

looks good, did you put clear coat also?

Post by **kingcnc91** » Thu Oct 04, 2012 7:38 pm
