Thank you so much for this! Not only for going so in depth and taking such a proper long time to really see the results, but making a really good comprehensive comparison between all the brands.
Excellent work, thanks for your patience to wait so long ! Just the kind of thing we like to see. Looks objective and non-sponsered so that's reassuring too. Suggestion : Even better would have been normal street use of the 4 wheels on a vehicle all that time. See how much they stand up to heat from the brakes, stones, curb rash (it happens even if you're careful), carwash etc.
@Francis Peter Thanks! I saw a lot of videos on these products but not much as far a side by side comparison. I figured it might be useful. Good call on the normal street use idea. A wear and tear type of review would have been awesome! Hhhhmmmm, kinda gives me some ideas. Thanks again for the feedback!
I used Plasti-dip on my mustang wheels, no gloss... Looked great at first, began to peel/bubble after about 4 to 5 months of driving... I would just re-coat after a car wash and THOROUGH drying... This lasted for 3 or 4 applications, then you could start to see thick vs thin spots on the wheels. I eventually bought myself black rims once I wore through the stock tires... I also used red Plasti-dip on my badges and emblems, again no gloss... This worked AWESOME! They never peeled or bubbled, but after about 3 years the color started fading. No big deal, I just hit them again right over top of the existing stuff... 3 or 4 light to medium coats to freshen up the color... BAM! Good to go!
@MrFishBlood Oh nice! Thanks for the info. I didn't think about respraying them, but makes sense. 3 years is a long time! That's awesome! Try the the gloss, I feel like it added another layer of protection.
@Peter Enns I've been getting a lot of comments about doing a peel off video. So I think I'll do one this weekend. Hopefully I can get it uploaded next week. Stay tuned! Thanks!
I found your 12 month experiment or resarch to not only be justified but I applaud the effort. Lets hope others will get onboard to perform 'proper time-framed reviews" Kudos!
Awesome video! I Plasti dipped my wheels with anthracite and the glossifier. It held up beautifully for three years and was a breeze to peel off. Then I bought the Rust-Oleum junk. In less than 6 months in real world conditions it started peeling by itself. Same thing with my decals. I have to do it all over again now. I should have just ordered the Plasti dip from git go. I also did not like the Rust-Oleum color and it was just black but it was a dull black. Plasti dip is by far a superior product.
I had used the the rustO on the gas cap for my challenger and had a great outcome. I reapplied the rustO about 2 1/2 years later. I also had a car wash membership and constantly went through the wash and the paint held on great. That's weird you had bad luck with it.
I’ve done a bunch with them and experimented with them. From what I’ve seen I would agree with your ratings as far as plasti dip being the best. Also, like you said the color of the rust oleum is more of an orange. Not red. Was very disappointed about that.
Had Plastidip on my emblems and front grill of my BMW, for 4 years now, haven't needed a touch up yet on the front grill. Im doing my emblems again today. Only the small edges have a couple spots. I cleaned all my surfaces with 91% rubbing alcohol. super easy to use, and the nozzles dont clog on yah
NICE COMPARISON. HONESTLY PLASTI DIP IS THE BEST TO DATE. I HAVE PUT IT ON TOP OF MY CAR (MATTE BLACK). IT WAS JUNE 2019, NOW IT'S MAY 2020, AND NOTHING HAS CHANGED. SINCERELY EVERYTHING IS INTACT EVEN AFTER WINTER.
It's nice for a weather review but, it doesn't cover heat application along with brake dust build up and how it affects the dip. I wouldn't expect much from weather or snow except maybe a build up of dust and dirt and some iron deposits from the snow. But looks like you did a nice job on the coverage of the rims. Tiny runs which is usually my problem when coating.
Thanks for the review. I've heard nothing good about Rust-oleum peelable paint. Disappointed in the Dupli-color, I've always liked their regular paints. Plastidip seems to win all these comparisons and Hyperdip is a whole new animal. Great review!
@Joseph Thompson Thanks! Yeah, Dupli-color has great paints but this product falls a little short. I haven't tried Hyperdip yet, but I've also heard great things.
thank you man, i appreciate the amount of time you took to give an overall review with real results. I think i will end up doing a black dupli color because of how good the finish was, and I dont plan on keeping these wheels black long term and if i do like it, i can always respray or switch to a plastidip coat. All in all, thank you!
I agree with karacer the way to show a product review!!!! I am about to do my 2020 F150 rims black and I live in PA also I was just hoping to get a year out of it I figured I would have to do it yearly I guess I will see thanks again for a great review
@hdrjunkie It's funny you say that. I saw a bottle for doing the tool handles at Harbor Freight for the 1st time the other day. I thought it was something new!
I had black and red plasti-dip on my car for over 4 years with the clear coat. Clear fade after 3rd year. I had a harder time talking off the red. Black was no problem. The car was always left out in the sun. Never in a garage. I think that if my car had been in a garage that the plasti-dip would have lasted longer than 5 years.
I think I picked up some of the peel coat flon clearance like $2 or $3 from Walmart a while back I thought about using them but haven't really looked into it much
I ended up using the original Plasti dip on a 45 lb mushroom anchor for saltwater fishing It held up well the last few months it looks the same way the first day I sprayed it for automotive use my opinion plastic dip will hold up perfectly..
Good video I just wish you peeled them to see if there were any issues with that aspect after them being on for that long. I know they are all designed to peel but would have been interested to see those results.
Thank you so much, I just finished my rear and side Chromies. I Made them black and Rustoleum Peel coat is what I used. I'm certain it does not apply as well as the Plasti Dip does, as I have used it in the past. After watching this video (THANK YOU) I am going to be going to get Plasti Dip again. . . and some mineral spirits* Plasti Dip should pay you money.
Looking for something to quiet down my metal gate when the chainring hits the metal chain, ding ding ding. Hope the plasti dip works well, or not sure if there's something heavy duty 👍
Used Peel coat....never had any problems..keep a can in the vehicle for touch ups..Wheels, bumpers, running boards....looks great...long term....no issues. Have a can of plasti dip also...but, Peel coat is so easy to use.....get a can handle, it gives you much more directional control....keep shaking as you spray..it's done in minutes..drys fast...
@christopher gaona You are the 2nd person to suggest that. I thought about posting it on my IG, but now I'm thinking I just do a quick follow up video and post it on this channel.
The Duplicolor looks the best in my Opinion. That makes me feel better about the 6 cans of Gold/Copper duplicolor custom wrap I’m about to spray onto my $1200 wheels lol even though it’s a peel coat I’m still nervous 😩
@Jamey Campbell The Duplicolor was fire for sure. I'm glad you are peel coating them $1,200 wheels! It makes me feel better about doing the same to mine. LOL.
AutoVice they turned out great. Now I can’t wash the damn thing for like 2 more weeks apparently. I’ve seen people say while it still has that rubber type texture/ feel don’t wash them; that I should wait until they have a smooth plastic feel. It’s killing me not being able to wash it lol
@@JameyCampbell_54 Right on! Glad they turned out good. Did you do a clear coat or just the color coat? Do you have them posted on an Instagram or anything? I'm curios to see them.
I'm not sure if he did i don't think so but I feel like maybe if you sanded it down it would have adhered better and possibly held up better I know I did it with the plastidip and lasted me years
@KALIOSSO GARCIA DE LA FLATS CALIFAS / I didn't do any sanding. I just cleaned them up really good. You're right, a little sanding or scuffing might give the plastidip a little more bite and get better adhesion. It's worth a shot, as long as you don't mind scuffing up whatever you are painting. 😅
Commitment issues? What if you lease your car and would really like to return it for a new lease without paying all kinds of damages for a repaint? Seems to me, peel off paint is the way to customize your leased ride and still stay new every few years.
@Robert Bolin Good point on the lease vehicle thing. Although leasing a new vehicle every couple of years seems like commitment issues to me, but hey, no judgement here. LOL 😆. Even on stuff I own, I can't seem to commit to a color. That's why I like this stuff I guess.
@@autovice Some people are the "Must havers" who "must have" the latest model of their preferred car. Personally, that isn't me. I'd rather keep my C4 Corvette than upgrade (well, unless I can snag a C7 or C8 for under 40k) but I have friends and family who must have the latest and greatest to keep up appearances.
I dont' think you can complain about 18 months given the conditions. Nobody expects that to last in weather. Redoing them every 3 years aint' bad. Nice job.
I want to use Plasti Dip for a bike frame. Would I have to strip the frame before applying? Also how well does the PD stand up to light scraping from a bike chain?
I tried Rustoleum Peel Coat for an indoor project and it was absolute garbage. It didn't come out in a spray it spit out of the can in droplets and to get it a thick enough coat to flow it ended up running and touching up was hopeless because any over spray looked like a textured ceiling. I peeled it off and bought the considerably more expensive Plasti Dip (Canada) and it was a night and day difference. Plasti Dip sprayed nice, builds up layers well and flows smooth. It appears to redissolve the previous coat so you can touch up an area without repainting the whole thing unlike Rustoleum. I will never use Rustoleum again but Plasti Dip definitely.
@TheSlimeyLimey First, I just wanna say I love your youtube name! I had similar problems with the Rustoleum. I thought maybe it was just me, but the spray on it was awful. It was thick and would splatter, but the Plasti dip and Duplicolor had a nice and fine spray. Thanks for the feedback!
@Brick N Motor I've used Flex seal before. Entirely different. They look and behave similar, but none of these are going to have the strength and durability that flex seal has. In my opinion.
I've used the duplicolor with same results. ..need to spray the clear coat on before the base colour dries gives it a smooth finish . It had some sort of reaction when I sprayed it after the base coat dried and hard to get a smooth finish
@Jeff Sparks These are pretty durable. But I've never tried the cars wash. The car wash with the scrubbers would probably scratch it up and peel it. Maybe a touchless car wash would work? But I don't know for sure.
i been using plastidip to do my rims. the first time i didnt know how to paint and other tricks like warming the cans. so i made a few mistakes. i removed it after a year. the second time it was done better but i make the mistake of taking my car to a carwash in winter and the stuff they use damage the finish of the plastidip. i just did it for the third time.
OK, onto more and some questions if you don't mind. I'm looking to do my bike in a superhero motif (hint, red, blue, and black, and not DC) including a custom seat. Of course, the beast stays in the garage next to my jeep (leaving a motorcycle out in the weather is not good for the mechanicals at all) and I also want to be able to quickly strip off the paint and put the original seat back on should I decide to trade it in. With that in mind, do you think the duplicolor would work well? I ask because there are two particular shades of wet look wrap paint in royal blue and Indy red that I think, with black pinstriping and blacked out any chrome that would look great. But if you think the plasticolor is still the way to go, I'll research their line of Reds and Blues.
@Robert Bolin Red, Blue and Black... not DC, so Marvel Comics or maybe Image Comics? My first guess is Spiderman, my second is Cable. As far as the paints go, The duplicolor pops and looks better in my opinion, but is more delicate. The plastidip holds up better and is easier to peel. But if you are keeping it garaged, then it might not be a problem. Have you thought about vinyl wrap?
Is it just me or are all the ones that did not hold up on the gloss clear coat side?.....If so it could be a chemical reaction between the clear and wrap paint.
Naaahh.. go with rustoleum..Plasti dip, there are so much big chunks coming out of the nozzle..no matter how much i warm it up and it was new..rustoleum is fine all the way..unless you want bumps go with plasti dip.
@@autovice thanks! I wanna do the grill frame on my Yukon... the chrome is starting to bubble and peel so instead of buying a mew or used one I figure I can coat it black.
Can you just use the clear coat? I want to protect the paint on a brand new piece of equipment. I can't stand the thought of it getting beat up so soon lol
@hobonickel840 I've never tried. But these tend to stretch and hold together due to the rubber in the paint. So I would guess they would peel off all together with the tape.
@@autovice yeah .. I might try it but find the sweet spot in between paint being still wet enough to peel the tape away and leave clean edge . thanks 👍
This is how you do a review. Long term test results. I've had good luck with plastidip. Even with road salt in PA winters, it held up pretty good.
@karacer Thanks! Yeah, Plastidip just seems to hold up.
Thank you so much for this! Not only for going so in depth and taking such a proper long time to really see the results, but making a really good comprehensive comparison between all the brands.
@Silv For sure. I'm glad you liked it! Thanks for the support!

It didn't come out in a spray it spit out of the can in droplets and to get it a thick enough coat to flow it ended up running and touching up was hopeless because any over spray looked like a textured ceiling. I peeled it off and bought the considerably more expensive Plasti Dip (Canada) and it was a night and day difference. Plasti Dip sprayed nice, builds up layers well and flows smooth. It appears to redissolve the previous coat so you can touch up an area without repainting the whole thing unlike Rustoleum. I will never use Rustoleum again but Plasti Dip definitely.
@TheSlimeyLimey First, I just wanna say I love your youtube name! I had similar problems with the Rustoleum. I thought maybe it was just me, but the spray on it was awful. It was thick and would splatter, but the Plasti dip and Duplicolor had a nice and fine spray. Thanks for the feedback!
@@autovice I was thinking I had a bad can too at first haha. I thought there's no way they would knowingly ship a product this bad but they do.
Hows flex seal compare with these? Is it close to same type of feel,look and quality?
@Brick N Motor I've used Flex seal before. Entirely different. They look and behave similar, but none of these are going to have the strength and durability that flex seal has. In my opinion.
Super informative! :-) Peace, Stiletto :-)
Since this is a peel coat it’s too bad there was no test/comparison of peeling it. They do differ.
@user-ss5vx8sj7r You are correct. They do differ. Here is the link to the peel test video. ua-cam.com/video/YVAuaqvxGYU/v-deo.html
Maybe you can do a follow up showing which one is easiest to remove.
@UncleFesterBond It's funny you should mention that. I just got done recording that. I'm hoping to post that video this week. Stay tuned. Thanks!
AutoVice Great. I’ll be looking for that.
I've used the duplicolor with same results. ..need to spray the clear coat on before the base colour dries gives it a smooth finish . It had some sort of reaction when I sprayed it after the base coat dried and hard to get a smooth finish
@Alan Steele Thanks for the tip. Makes sense. Duplicolor still had the best look and color. But it just didn't hold up for me.
I used a cheap one on my accord coupe for the chrome delete & never again doing anything else but plastiDip
@N Garci What did yo use? Did it start to peal off right away?
@@autovice around the 30 day mark it looked horrible....
Thanks for doing this
@skantiloak Yeah, for sure! It was an interesting test.
Here's my 1 year plasti dip review.
It wasn't easy to peel off. I actually had to use a scraper.
@o Little Bear o Thanks for sharing! 🙂
Great review 🤘🏾🔥🔥
Good video, thanks for doing that experiment and now I don't have to!
@Carlos Knoop Thanks! I'm glad it helped.
Are these different. dips durable enough for automatic car washes?
@Jeff Sparks These are pretty durable. But I've never tried the cars wash. The car wash with the scrubbers would probably scratch it up and peel it. Maybe a touchless car wash would work? But I don't know for sure.
i been using plastidip to do my rims. the first time i didnt know how to paint and other tricks like warming the cans. so i made a few mistakes. i removed it after a year. the second time it was done better but i make the mistake of taking my car to a carwash in winter and the stuff they use damage the finish of the plastidip. i just did it for the third time.
@tukulitozakayamas2013 Third time's a charm! 🙂
I wonder how long plastic dip lasts on the actual wheels... Anyone know? Also can they be jet washed?
OK, onto more and some questions if you don't mind. I'm looking to do my bike in a superhero motif (hint, red, blue, and black, and not DC) including a custom seat. Of course, the beast stays in the garage next to my jeep (leaving a motorcycle out in the weather is not good for the mechanicals at all) and I also want to be able to quickly strip off the paint and put the original seat back on should I decide to trade it in. With that in mind, do you think the duplicolor would work well? I ask because there are two particular shades of wet look wrap paint in royal blue and Indy red that I think, with black pinstriping and blacked out any chrome that would look great. But if you think the plasticolor is still the way to go, I'll research their line of Reds and Blues.
@Robert Bolin Red, Blue and Black... not DC, so Marvel Comics or maybe Image Comics? My first guess is Spiderman, my second is Cable. As far as the paints go, The duplicolor pops and looks better in my opinion, but is more delicate. The plastidip holds up better and is easier to peel. But if you are keeping it garaged, then it might not be a problem. Have you thought about vinyl wrap?
Is it just me or are all the ones that did not hold up on the gloss clear coat side?.....If so it could be a chemical reaction between the clear and wrap paint.
@TheStraddleman Maybe. I would think that an extra layer of clear would help. But some clears held up better than other. Sooo, I don't know. lol.
Top notch video! Great job, subd!
@ A. Diaz Thanks for the support!
Thx bro. Awesome video.
@MAN UTD 4LIFE Thanks!
Would rather have seen this test on the car functional. True test no ding just my preferred method.
Thank you for the video. Going with Plasti Dip. I think it is also cheaper.
@Shark Party I can't remember the price, but even if Plasti Dip was a few bucks more, I'd still go for it. Have fun!
Naaahh.. go with rustoleum..Plasti dip, there are so much big chunks coming out of the nozzle..no matter how much i warm it up and it was new..rustoleum is fine all the way..unless you want bumps go with plasti dip.
Would like to one on how long it holds up when you're actually driving on them. Road grime, break dust, rock dings, etc.
How’s the plasti-dip hold up to heat? S it like paint in that respect?
@hdrjunkie It did fine I think. I'm in the high sierra dessert. It gets hot for a few month and plenty dry.
@@autovice thanks! I wanna do the grill frame on my Yukon... the chrome is starting to bubble and peel so instead of buying a mew or used one I figure I can coat it black.
@@hdrjunkie My brother in law just did his with spray on raptor lining. It looks good.
@@autovice I’ll have to look into that. Never heard of it. Thanks!
Good vid
Hey I’m from Reno. Native Nevadan.
@kerrijodierberger Hello there fellow Reno-ian... Reno-nian... Reno person! 😃
Great video, thx for this, I'm sure this was time consuming
@prophet DJS Thanks! It took some time, but totally worth it.
I'm sure, thx again I wound up purchasing the liquid version to paint my tire letters & it turned out great
How many cans did it take to get 4 wheels done?
@Airick Johnson I used about 2 1/2 cans.
@@autovice Awesome, thank you for responding!
Great video! What wheels are those?
@NoTubesForU Some old school centerlines I think.
Can you just use the clear coat? I want to protect the paint on a brand new piece of equipment. I can't stand the thought of it getting beat up so soon lol
@CreatingMind I bet it will. Its just rubberized paint. So its should seal it.
Can you use gaffer's or painters tape with these without it peeling off when you remove tape
@hobonickel840 I've never tried. But these tend to stretch and hold together due to the rubber in the paint. So I would guess they would peel off all together with the tape.
@@autovice yeah .. I might try it but find the sweet spot in between paint being still wet enough to peel the tape away and leave clean edge . thanks 👍
