dipyourcar.com/shop/page/4?shop_param=This is pretty slick stuff... paint your wheels on the car without overspray worries... change colors temporarily... cover road rash. Cheap and easy to touch up. According to what I've heard, it will last a lot longer than you think... 4 coats and it will last a year. dipyourcar.com/shop/page/45?shop_param= Add on glossifier for slick finish. I am impressed. I plan to try this on the M Roadster. I'll let you know how it goes.

I've done one wheel this way to see how the black looked. I left the matte finish and brake dust doesn't show at all. It's been on about 5 months now and hasn't started to peel. I just haven't had time to do the other wheels yet. Good luck.

I used this on one of my helmets that was looking pretty rough. A few coats of plastidip and a new face shield and it looks brand new, and quite slick!

Eh........ not impressed. For starters, easy way to mask wheels is to buy 3 "for sale" plastic signs. Tape them in a circle that matches the circumfrence of your wheel. Want black? just use Plasticote engine paint. Dries faster than any other black and is nice and shiny. Cleans easily, also.

The MINI got attacked with Plasti-Dip over the weekend. All the chrome pieces I hate so much (that I could get off) got yanked and sprayed.... and to finish the effect I put a matte black offset stripe on it too. Plasti-Dip is magical!!

Danke, guys! Was pretty easy.. kinda wish I had done it sooner.... or better yet... let my buddy do it while he had it in the shop in pieces after my little "run-in" with a deer last year.
