Big thanks to 2011Tahoe for help with the debadging last weekend AND for bolting on the TBSS's so I could see what they'd looked like!

Very nice and clean. How many coats/passes did you have to spray?

Thanks all.

Tito teeds, I did 5 to 6 coats on the front grille since I took the time to take it off (it was a PITA!). I wanted to make sure it holds up. 4 coats on the rear bowtie. the key is to leave some space around the emblem when you tape it off and spray the whole area evenly. If you don't lay enough coats down it won't peel away easily.

Practiced on the front bowtie the first time I used PDip. Glad I did, bc I was spraying too far away and too light which creates a texture. NOT what I was going for. No biggie, just peeled it off and resprayed it. Dialed in my range (held the can approx 5 inches from surface) and layed it on thicker which dries pretty smooth IMO.
