Plasti Dip Stripes Question

Has anyone ever used plastidip to put stripes on their car? I have an extrememly tight budget since I'm about to purchase a house and painting stripes on is not affordable for me at the moment. I don't like vinyl stripes either. I've heard of people using plastidip for stripes before because if you don't like it, then its extremely easy to remove but I want to make sure I ask around before doing it and ruining my paint or clearcoat. Any feedback would be appreciated!

I did my old cars stripes in PlastiDip TEMPORARILY...I woudl not suggest it long term. But it is a nice way to lay down a design and remove it once you decide if you want it permanent.
It hellped me cause I layed them down and really liked them...then after a week I decided against it so I was able to remove them and learn my mistake vs paying a ton of money.

Very easy to remove too....be sure though that you lay it on pretty thick otherwise it will be a pain to remove.

+1, five to six coats should be good, watch the videos from dipyourcarcom on youtube. You shouldn't have an issue with the clear coat.
