Recently dipped the wheels on my MCS , gonna do the whole car in matte white soon ,if I don't like it I'm prolly gonna do black or red
But what do you guys think? They are black with a few coats of gold metalizer it was sunny when i took the after image so it hard to see the bronzey gold look

Before:


After:


They have a very attractive gold sheen when the sun is hitting the wheel (look at the rear )
Would look better on contrast with a white car

 

Looks good. We've sold some of the plastidip black and glossifier but never the metalizer. I kinda like it.

 

That looks awesome. I just dipped some parts on my car, but haven't tried adding metalizer yet....

 

Nice job! I like the way the color of the wheels changes depending on the lighting.

Are you thinking of plasti-dipping your whole car? Wasn't sure from you post if you were gonna use PD to go matte white.

I just re-dipped my wheels over the weekend. My first coat went on last Sept. but I had a few flaws, and with application during a high-humidity time of year, I needed to redo them.

I stripped off the original layers of plasti-dip, which wasn't as easy as I had hoped. I had to use Goo Gone to help soften or loosen the PD and aid removal, but it took a fair amount of scraping with a plastic putty knife and rubbing to get it off.

I only mention this cuz if you plasti-dip your whole car, removal might be a beyotch. Goo Gone is a pretty harsh product, kinda like paint thinner, and I'd hate to rub that stuff on my car's paint.

My two cents: if you're thinking about changing the exterior of your car without repainting it, consider a vinyl wrap instead of PD.

 

I like it.. have the same color and same wheels.. quick questions.. tire size? And are u lowered at all?
Sorry to veer off topic

 

looks great!

 

Looks Spectacular !!!

Bringing Plastic Dip to whole new mod level.

 

Thanks guys , Yes I did say I was gonna dip the whole car white. I'll ne taking pictures and a video of the finished product to post some What of a DIY or some tips , I actually noticed today that because of the curb rash on one of wheels the outside rim so I peeled all the wheels , Ill post a pic later I'm not sure how I feel about it

 

I've had lots of experience with dip , my last three cars have been dipped and i highly positive
Dip is better than a vinyl wrap
Wraps leave an adhesive residue , you can't touch up rock chips or imperfections and it is way to expensive
Btw with enough layers plastidip will come off without the aid of any adhesive removers but if you really are having trouble I highly suggest turtle wax bug and tar remover , won't harm the clear if you wash immediately afterwards

 

Sounds good, and I look forward to seeing the results! BTW, hope my post didn't come across wrong. I was just hoping to save someone the pain I went through, but clearly you're aware.

 

Nice. The wheels on the Wildebeest were gold until last week when Anthony PDipped them gunmetal.

 

That winter Camo looks dope

 

At first it came across wrong but than I re read it and noticed you were just tryin to help soy bad if my reply came across as negative

 

That camo is SO SICK........

 

I dipped my car matte black, roof matte red and wheels in vintage gold. I love it.

Next I'm thinking orange and blue camo.

 

Just a tip, goo gone and power washer I dipped my car a blue/grey color before and it wouldn't peel...I got so frustrated. I let the goo gone sit for 10 minutes and it literally washed right off.

To the OP, I haaaaaaaate the white. For some reason it's a major PITA to peel. I've dipped my car several times, but white is always trouble for me.

 

I have a soft spot for camo - here's my old race car from a few years ago:

How do i get that winter camo....SERIOUSLY

 

With vinyl

 

oh ok, man i might have to look into that.....

 

what wheels are those? love the camo

 

Does this effect wheel balance?

 

No, Longboard. The Plastidip does not weigh enough to affect the balance.

 

Hey those projects look great. For those who have done a complete car, can you run over the steps you used? Any special prep (wax remover?) etc. Did you use the spray cans or spray on from the bulk (1 gallon can) --if so what type of spray gun?

Cheers

 

This could help
