The Plasti Dip Thread

I'll have to keep an eye out for those engine covers in the junkyard!

Center portion of front grille and chrome portion of front bumper:

That's the push bar I need!

Just straight up red and black.

I think I’m gonna do the whole wheel in black or gunmetal with glossifier. Maybe a red bow tie, and a white border? I haven’t decided, but I think I’m gonna make it my winter project.

Desicions , decisions lol

That's a tough choice on a white truck. I say 49% black to 51% gunmetal

Late post.
So the color was definitely off to match the indigo blue. In sun light way off, in shadows and the dark pretty close in color.
But now I know I have somewhat of an idea of how colormatching would look on my truck. You see others trucks in pics and visualize how yours would look. But nothing compared to actually using plastidip as a visual on your truck in front of your eyes.

I even used plastidip smoke to drown the brightness of the blue/purple. It helped a little .
But end result- fail. For those with the same color i tried this so you dont have to now lol.
Got lots of compliments on execution but nobody believed it to match up, which it didn't

The color match experiment looks great, even for a blue Tahoe. Tough color to match though.

This is what happened to my bumper from the trans fluid fiasco.

Yea I can see hot tranny fluid eating away even at clear coat on real paint.

It was wishful thinking. But still worked great as a visual. Now once it warms up I'll start the process. Won't be the HD grille tho, unless I can find another .
