Plastidip Help

Ok so I have an 07 Alloy stang. I am currently plastidipping things such as the faux gas cap, the fender emblems and the front grille in black.

My question is would it look alright with black rims if I dip those? I tried looking around for a picture of an alloy with black rims and can't find any.

The alloy isn't going to change the outlook of the dip.

You're gonna want to do atleast 4 coats per wheel. The more coats you put on, the more durable it is and easier it peels off when you want to remove it.

Just make sure to clean them up real good.

If you're spraying them on the car, cut a trash bag in half and feed it through the wheels and cover up the brake bads and rotors.
Just make sure to move the car forward after each coat to make sure you got everywhere.

Thanks

I wasn't sure if it would be too much black on the alloy color or if it would look alright or not.

I'm hopefully doing the rims within the next couple weeks so I'll report back with the result and get your opinion

If you would like them to be shiny you could always order the glossifier from dipyourcar.com

Otherwise they will be matte black.
