Plexi-Dip?

 

^This.

 

Good job, nice Plexi-Dip "how to" video.
I would have masked off the lug nut contact surface of the wheels.

 

I also wanted to ask...did you get 245/45 X 19" for a reason? That puts you a little higher than stock for the 19". Mine are 245/40 X 19". Does that just mean your speedometer will be off by +/- 5%?

 

these are my winter wheels only and i wanted something with more meat and not low profile for the winter these are snow tires on the rims.

 

sorry dam Portuguese accent

 

Nice video Mike, Thanks for posting this.

I'm still trying to decide to do this on a white car.

The center caps left as is might be nicer to set off a bit of contrast.

When you spoke about the roof, did you see the new Plasti-Dip gloss top coat they have? That might look good to replicate the SV pano roof. Just a thought.

 

Decent Video..I generally have my own technique which works great. But, this is good for beginners. I already have the two tone roof

 

I'm not familiar with Plasti Dip...I've heard of it, but never used it. Is there any advantages to using this on wheels as opposed to high temp paint or "special" wheel paint? I'm assuming a harder skin for added ding and scratch protection!?

 

What happens when you take your lug nuts off...I'm sure the impact gun socket or whatever will rip some of that plastic off around it....

 

Nice vid camera a bit shaky though lol. also its plasti dip not plaxi dip lol

 

Plasti dip is temporary unlike paint. I suppose you can remove paint, but it's going to take off the original finish as well. This stuff will peel off when you want. Many use it on the actual car itself to add some flare, and if they mess up or change their mind, they peel it and start over.

 

And it is a DIY that costs $5 per can at Home Depot. And if the wheels get scuffed, you can touch it up with a bit more spray.

 

What about the inner part of the rims? Did you flip it around and spray that side too? Also has anyone tried making Eyebrows for their headlights with this?
