i just bought these on craigslist, he said they were escalade wheels plasti dipped. I like how the center caps match the chrome emblems. sorry for the crappy pics, it was 4 degrees here in michigan and my phone was frosting up!

So what are everybody's opinions on how it lasts long term or better yet should I ask what is considered long term for plastic dipping?

After almost a year its a little hard to peel off but does come off. Also depends on your climate. My climate beats paint and dip pretty hard.

Plasti dip is one of the stupid phases of modding.

It looks bad after it fades in the sun after a few months.

Been there done that. Look gay after a while imo

Paint parts or powder coat them.

My dip was HARD to remove. That why I turned against it.

Does adding the glossy topcoat help any?

If you clean and take care of dip it lasts pretty well, well at least mine has.

I will say the white looks better long term.

My grille and shell, bowtie, front and rear bumpers, wheels, roof rack, and trim are plastidipped Black/White and have been for almost 2 years

Only experience is with black....... and that fades.

Have a buddy that dipped his mud truck and it has stood up to the abuse he has put it thru. Although he applied about 9 layers of that stuff. Still looks good. He used the glossifier on it also. Been on there for about a year now.
