Plasti Dip Poll

[vitaly_]

I won't be doing much off roading so I'm not concerned about that. So it appears you like the tan slightly more. Slightly.

[MENTION=129990]CAMELPRO[/MENTION] thanks for the advice. Why is the thinner needed and can I use a regular air spray gun?

Sorry bud, we went to the coast and didn't get any notifications.

But, as mentioned earlier, it has to be thinned to go through the gun.

Personally I would do something between the tan and the olive like the sage color on these Land Rovers below:

But a word of caution I have found PlastiDip extremely difficult to remove and I did spray on many layers and did it all correctly (this was on a set of wheels).

Trick is not to wait until it is dry but to add next layer just before the previous layer dries completely, thin and then thicker. For rims, WD40 will make easy work of removal.

maybe I waited too long between coats I am not sure but it was almost two years old by the time I removed it and maybe it was the heat form the brakes (it was a V8 Touareg with 8 piston front calipers). I did end up using WD40 and it helped, but still was far from the super easy removals you see on youtube. I used to think it was amazing stuff until this experience and would probably think of alternatives before painting an entire vehicle with it. I imagine a wrap would perform better? but I am no expert on these things.
