Plasti Dip

Post by Shaun1982 »

Anyone had a go yet? Seeing as I'll never get my wheels done at work any time soon I've been looking at plasti dip.
I like doing things myself so I started looking. Found people were recommending about 5-6 cans per 18/19" wheel, I want shiny wheels still which could mean at least the same again in the 'glossifier' I reckon.
If that's the case why do people bother? 10 cans minimum @ £14 a pop makes refurb or powdercoat money.

Only reason I can think of is becuase its removable and will go back to how it was without any extra cost.

Yeah that's the only reason I can think of. Watched a good few videos about the different products they have. Even with glossifier I'm not sure it's glossy enough for me
