    A tip I can give you that I noticed is you started in the middle of the chrome. You always want to start at one end and work it down in a sweeping motion. When you wrap all the way around the car that spot will begin to dry and leave almost like a slight seem.

    i am VERY familiar with plasti dip.you guys are misunderstanding me. the intentional overspray that is meant to be pulled off is not what im talking about.
    what im talking about is, if you pause it at 3:32 where after he pulls off the tape, on the OUTSIDE edge of the tape, (bottom right of the screen) there is REAL black overspray on the white of the car. that stuff is hard to remove.
    THATS what im talking about.

  • @Vipre77
    @Vipre77 11 років тому +1

    Looks okay, but I'd be too worried about peeling around the edges here. Those surfaces get touched, especially around the edges where it's the least durable, more often than many other exterior surfaces on the car. People getting in and out of the car and grabbing the door frame and such. Several manufacturers make actual matte black paint intended to match OEM trim. That would be a more durable option, though admittedly much more permanent.

    When I did mine I took cheap plastic sheeting & closed the doors over it & taped it down over on the far side of the roof. Quick as a bunny masking technique. Also, I left a strip around the glass & only masked the center. The PD peeled away cleanly. I did tape & used sheeting beneath the windows.

    and get rid of the chrome. Not sure this plastidip stuff would last much less look
    as good as a normal black plastic.
