Full Plasti-Dip "Paint" Job
oo baby fleezy's back. lotta work done since I stopped trolling these forums. rex is a stg2 now.
oh, and this (i would've posted it as a gallery, but nasioc is blocking it): Gallery (because pics are limited): https://imgur.com/a/coQaojS Interior Panels (Spray Cans) Painting (Turbine Sprayer) Glamour I also have a video posted on my insta (@thethor_nextdoor), plus all the other stuff since my hiatus. Check it oot! What I have on the car Doors and Door Sills (all 4 together):
Trunk Lid:
Car Exterior:
The hardest thing about each section is the wet-peel, by far. The PDS begins to flash out and dry much faster than you think, and if you're late, you better have a sharp razor with you. Almost every trim-line on this car is a wet-peel area. If (when) I do this again in another colour, I will either a) have someone following behind my as I spray, peeling the wet-peels, or b) run over each edge a second time so it's wet when I finish the last coat. 10/10 would dip again. come@me.

It looks really good. Question: Why a base coat first? Why not go to final coat right from the start and maybe do a few more passes at it? I've had little success with plasti dip out of cans, so wondering how you did it.

I would wager that, though likely minimal, a different base, or no base, would a) change the primary colour slightly, and/or b) require much more than the 4 total gallons to get the coverage needed. Ultimately though, i bought a kit for the grey parts of the car, and it came with 2 gals of base lol. |

The colour combo is sick. I have a 2011 wrx hatch and I'm not a fan of the color would you recommend painting it as opposed to wrap?
