Plasti dip any experiences here

[lev1982]

Been looking into this as there ares some nice finishes available and it's really cheap compared to a full respray. I have every intention of getting car resprayed at some point but budget won't allow at mo. So this is an alternative I'm looking at.

From some of the videos I've seen it doesn't look too bad for wheels. Don't think I'd like to see my whole car done in it. It'd be a bit like driving round in a condom!

I had my E46 dipped. I did it myself and it wasn't very good job but not too bad either. I would only consider it if your paintwork looked really bad and get it off as soon as you can as it will start coming off on its own.

My mates bike was plasti dipped Matt black was awful peeled off as soon as you touched it

A stated wouldn't bother on the whole car, might as well save the cash for a proper respray. 

I dipped my spare set of wheels in white a couple of years back and it held up nicely. No prep other than thorough cleaning needed. Then again I did follow all the usual spraying rules. Thin coats, drying time etc

 

long story short ended up using all summer with no problems until tyres needed changing then it peeled at the rim. Bugger to get off when hardened though only thing that seems to get it off is WD40!?
