Yes one can will fix many problem areas and it blends really well like it came from the same batch that I sprayed over a year ago. I used my HVLP sprayer with the pre thinned gallons from dip your car to do the original job.

 

use spray paint. at least it can be said that spray paint sticks...

 

If you like the looks of the matte black after plasti-dip I would suggest John Deere blitz black. This paint is extremely durable looks great and spays on very nice and even. You can do your whole xj for about $30 for a gallon or buy the spray cans for 7.99. I had to paint a harley to match there denim black paint and its a dead on match. You can also go with a satin finish which is a little more shiny. Google john deere blitz black and see for yourself.

 

LOL, yea I like it when I'm rolling down the hwy and a quarter panel decides to let go and start flapping in the wind like a Flag

 

Very true. Consider it like a membrane that bonds well to painted surfaces. If you apply several coats (4 or 5) evenly then it's fairly durable and will resist tearing when branches and brush rubs up against it. If it does get scuffed, you can use spray cans to touch it up. They have a stripper that can be used to feather the edges which makes touch-up almost invisible but it might be easier to just peel that section off and redo it, depending on where it is.

 

it comes off pretty easy, I re did my wheels a couple times and its was always easy just scratch with my nail and start pulling.

 

I was kidding, to be honest it's all in the prep before shooting it. My body-shop experience taught me that, so no I have personally never had any problems with mine and I feel real good when I get people always asking what I used because they love the look and I have done many of their vehicles because of that. I have great paint underneath this is a nice protective barrier for it. That can be fixed or changed easily and cheaply at any time.

 

I completely agree with some of the guys. Touch up is easy, I scratched my rims and all I had to do to fix it was just spray another 2 coats with the can. Originally, I did 5 rims, with 1 can, 4 coats each. So I can attest for the amount of coverage you can get per can.

I covered the wheel lock with tape thats why it looks like that

 

See when I did mine I scuffed the whole wheel, and did front and back. I also dont like that after a while its hard to get clean. But I will be doing my spare as the design matches my wheels, but theyre chrome

 

I had to dip these because they were disgusting and I cant put my new wheels+tires on till I get my lift installed. So in the mean time I had to make it look good. I also went ahead and painted all my moldings. For those I used DUPLICOLOR though.

Never was a fan of plasti-dip. If I'm going to take the time to prep and paint I want it to actually stay on.

 

I had done the same to my endcaps but those were gone once I lifted, and the side molding got pulled off the day I brought her home, I cant stand the way it looks

 

After reading and seeing videos, it seems that with proper installation and multiple thick layers. Plasti dip can withstand pressure washes, on plastic such as the bumper end caps the dip should be more durable than body paint, and for the price and easy *wanted* removal it's better than testing with permanent paint. I plan on doing my bumper end caps and lower body trim with it.
