  • Plasti-dipping

    Right then, has anyone had any experience with plasti dipping?
    Pics?
    Also if i were to do it myself im assuming theres some sort of primer and laquer for it?
    How easy does it chip off?
    How easy is it to wash/wax?
    How easy is it to apply?

    Etc etc etc

    Thankyou

              I keep meaning to look at the vids on plasti-dipping but when you've had enough of it does it just peel off ?

                  I took nothing off. Just tape and newspapers to protect the paint. Use enough plastidip and it will peel off good. I used the primer and tried to peel it off, but it's impossible

                          So would u recommend not to use the primer? Just clean it properly before plasti dipping it?

                              I'm from Mechelen. The only problem with the primer is when you sell your car. It will have the painted parts forever. Yesterday I plastidipped the front grille completely in antracite pearl effect. But It's too dark now, don't like it
