en attente de remplacement par plastic dip

I decided to “black out” my Chevy bow tie, but didn’t want flat black. This color is beautiful! My car is silver and it compliments it well. I didn’t realize the instructions on the can recommend applying over top of black plastidip to get the color of the cap, so I had to run out and buy black too (it’s cheaper on amazon then local car parts store FYI). I’m so happy with the results though!!! It was surprisingly easy to apply and turned out perfect. I would recommend YouTube tutorial first. It’s been about 2 months since I applied, and it’s holding up just fine to daily driving, rain, car washes, etc. honestly, if it does ever start to peel off, it’s cheap and easy enough to be worth reapplying!

I started with anthracite wheels on my silver Audi, and everyone thought they were black. Against a light color car, anything dark just looks black. Got 4+ years out of that dip until having tires mounted messed it up, so time to try something new. For the color in the attached pics, I swapped the typical black base for a gray base to lighten it up. I found basic colors locally for quite a bit less than I could order them, so shop around. The graphite is more of a clear with graphite flakes, so the base color will show through. My exact recipe was 4 coats gray, 2 coats graphite, and 2 coats glossifier (more for protection than shine). Do at least 4 full cans of base for it to peel right and cover once dried. When the cans get low, they can sputter a bit. Once that happens, use the remainder of the can to overspray on the tire sidewalls so it’ll peel off in one clean layer once done. This is a great product in the right hands. Do some research and watch some DYC videos before attempting. Your patience will be rewarded.

I have a white car, and the plain black Plasti Dip looked much too flat on my wheels. The metalizer completely changed the look, adding some depth and color, and generally making them more interesting. It has held up great, and takes well to touch-ups which I have had to do after some tire changes - a quick re-coat with black and a new layer feathered in with the metalizer and it looks good as new again. I would say it does seem to lose its sparkle as the months wear on, but a very light respray fixes that easily. Great product.
