plasti dipped the center section of my street scene stillen chin spoiler
I got tired of seeing the scratches and small paint imperfections on the center part so I bought touch up paint and realized that the little brush would suck at covering the bigger scratches...after lots of research and photo shopping sample pictures I bought a can.
20 minutes of masking, and about 12 layers 15 to 30 seconds apart and a quick removal of tape while it was wet here are the results:

Looks fantastic alex. Curious how much mileage you got with it before the painted surface was chewed up. I have the same spoiler that i'm debating just leaving matte black.

FYI, 2.5 years of driving, no road rash or chips on mine. Solution? Clear bra. Never leave the dealership without it

She's driven her fair share esp with crappy roads here, and people who cut you off.

When I get my chin spoiler, I'm going to get the 3M spray clear bra. It's only $25 and should be perfect for keeping rock chips to a minimum
