Gulches is in Waterloo South Carolina. That's about the only place we have. I think there is a good range of difficulty there.

Nope, the closest one is in Matthews, NC on the other side of Charlotte. There was one in Charlotte but they closed it. I work just off of Carowinds Blvd.
It's cool man.

Thanks. With Plasti Dip you don't have to take them off. Once the stuff dries it just peels off.

Sweet! I've never used any of that stuff yet- i just painted the spoiler. So obviously tape everything off, if it somehow gets on the paint will it come off easily without causing any damage?

Lets just say that I did a halfass tape job yesterday to redo my emblems (saw some spots I missed) and I had a good amount of over spray and it came off. It wasnt as easy as when you have a clean edge to peel from but I did get it off without damaging the paint.

Just don't hold me responsible if yours does mess up.
(I doubt it will)
 
I have tried to plasti dip my emblems and am not having much luck. It won't stick and I keep getting little divots on the letters. I didn't have any trouble blacking out my chrome grill. Help!!
 
With plastidipping, Did you need to spray a clear coat? I plan on doing my stock wheels as well and wanted to know if I should shoot it with clear coat. On the emblems, did you guys shoot it with clear coat?
 
I didn't use clear on my emblems as the whole point of using plasti-dip for me was the fact that I didn't have take the emblems off. I recently did my air deflector and roof rack and I did use clear on those, got the idea from childrenofbodom. He says that it will stain easily and gets scuffed up too easy without it. I am very pleased with way the plasti-dip clear combo came out, seems very strong from what I can tell so far.

:withstupid:
Just kidding Plametto. I meant to say :iagree:
 
kinda of a stupid question but do you need to tape around each letter on the emblem or do you just spray then use a razor to peel off the over spray
 
I just roughly taped around them and peeled off the excess when it dried, didn't even use a razer but it probably would have been easier.
