Just wiped it down with Acetone and started spraying. First coat goes on pretty splattering wait 30 minutes and apply next coat. Really easy to use. Has a nice rubbery texture to it.

With just the roof left to paint it should take a total of 7 cans costing $42 plus tax. People think the texture would be weird but its not and the plus side is that touch up is as easy as buying another can. I haven't testes it out in the desert yet because of other work being done. Can't wait tho.

Plasti dip is the way to go.
My bumper, wiper arms, d rings, rockers and rear quarters are all dip. Been on there for close to a year

Looking good. I'll vouch for the stuff too. I blacked out my motorcycle with it. It's great to be able to run to Home Depot to get more for touch ups. I'm itching to try the new gunmetal color they have at there.

what he said, I used the stuff on my hood and roof, eventually got bored of having everything the way it was, and cut some of the dip off to give it a different look:
It's nice to be able to put anything on there, knowing it's not permanent.

New Jersey, Your bumper looks great! I am getting a new bumper and was wondering if I wanted to use it on it. Now I think I will.

It's a great solution if your like me and thinking about powder coat but don't want to hold off on installing. I didn't have the funds to get it powder coated and it was like two days before the big jeep invasion in ocean city. I originally did it as a temporary thing but it's really held up great. My last coat I stood back far and just gave it a mist which gave it a bedlined look opposed to my rocker panels and grille which I wanted flat
