My local Home Depot only sells it in black and white. As much as I despise it, Pep Boys has MANY options!!

Black is what I want so thats cool. Pepboys is probably way more expensive too.

Walmart and Ace hardware also have a few other choices too. Walmart being the cheapest.

I didn't realize walmart sold it Shawn, how much is it there? I can't remember per can at Pepboys but for 4 cans of black dip and 2 cans of clear it was $47. That did all the chrome on my truck.

do you have to use the clear?

No, it's just personal preference. Plasti dip finishes a flat color. Since the rest of the truck isn't a flat color, I sprayed the clear to give it a glossy finish.

If you want to be able to peel it (which I am assuming is why you are using plasti dip) do not use a regular clear coat. It will harden the rubber and lose the peelability. You can get a little more shine with plasti dip brand glossifier. It still won't be super shiny though.

I don't care for the shine. I like the flat no shine look

I've been able to peel it off even with the clear coat with no problem.
I'd prefer my whole truck be a flat black or even a gunmetal color, that's just not in the budget right now. I just didn't like the flat up against the glossy.
