the "complexion" of the plastidip is different depending on the distance when spraying - spray with quicker hand speed close up (6") and you get a smoother surface that 12" to 15" which gives a more rough coating....

If you get some on your tire or the bumper does this stuff come off easily? or?

Just did my rims - first hit it with a few coats of black, then some Dupli-Color bronze wheel paint. I wanted a different color combo than anything else I've seen out there, and I think it looks fantastic. Being a roadcourse/endurance guy, anything with gold wheels and yellow headlights gives me a warm and fuzzy.
The car is really dirty in this shot, I'm going to wash it tonight an post some better shots of it in the Autos For Sale thread, where this car is listed for sale. I've got a few other plasti-dipped bits as well, I'll be highlighting those as well.
