Plastidip Crazy..
I recently started using plastidip on a friends suggestion and... Im in love with it. I cannot stop using it and have had to force myself not to plastidip my entire car (its ok, I won't). Anyways I plastidipped my stock rims because I had some curb rash and wasn't loving the chrome recently. I did the badges too. Both are pretty crap jobs since I did them at night but I'm planning on redoing them soon. Im thinking about plastidiping the front mustang emblem white but am not sure..
Oh and I guess ill introduce y'all to the car since I don't think I've shared any photos. This is a pretty old picture and the car is dirty, I guess ill upload a new one soon.

Tire shine on the tire is supposed to work very well at allowing you to peel the plastidip off the tires from over spray. Anything with good edges can be spray and then have the over spray removed without removing the plastidip from the badge or taillight what have you.

I actually did spray the badges while on the car, I had a friend help me and it was pretty easy. We taped a square windows around the badge and sprayed away. Once its dry all you have to do lift the edge of the square and it removes the excess around the badge. You then carefully remove inside the 0 and the dot.

I sprayed with the emblem on the car. The wheels I did with them still on the car. I wrapped trash bags around the brakes and stuff, and on the edges of the tires I stuck notecards in between the tire and the rim. Although as Brandon said you can also use tireshine. I taped off the wheel nuts. Then I just started spraying even layers. The mustang emblem inside I just peeled the plastidip off of. This is regular black plastidip without any glossifier or anything like that.

Whats the best/cheapest place to buy this stuff? Maybe I'll pick some up and do my emblems. I'm not a fan of chrome, black is better (5.0's, pony up front, rear faux gas...)
