Can you take some pretty up close shots so I can see the sheen the Glossifier put on it? Thanks.

Yeah. Was the orange peel there before the Glossifier or after? How long did you wait to put the Glossifier on?

pretty sure it was there before. Really, unless you look at it with a macro lens like this you're not really going to notice it. I think the bumby-ness is more to do with the fact that I'm not using the premixed formula like you'd get out of a can of plastidip. The only way to get yellow is to buy it in the undiluted cans and thin it yourself. At top of that I'm spraying it out of a preval which is made more for paint than the thicker plastidip formula. Paint of course would be better, but for the expense and ease (and un-doability) I'm pleased with the way it turned out.

Okay well I did my wheels a few months ago and it looked great...from far away. I did like 5 coats 20 minutes apart which was probably what went wrong in my process. I woke up going to bed happy because it looked so sick, turned the corner and almost cried. If the weather gets better here I'm thinking about trying it again can anybody give me a successful process on how to do the 20 inch wheels? Be greatly appreciated! Love plasti dip.

This is better than sliced bread! I only wish stores were still open so I can start playing. I don't know how I'll sleep tonight with this on my mind
