I done the LS7 rear panel blackout today, and honestly the worst thing was pulling the tape off.... I didn't do it when the last coat went on and it was bitch to get off!.. Anyway, I done the taillight bezels 2 weeks ago and the rest today.

so does anyone have pics of interior pieces they've painted with plasti-dip? i've used the stuff plenty of times before, just not on interior parts.

I don't know if anyone has done any interior pieces. Go for it! You'll be the first.

good thing is, if i dont like it i can peel it off. i think i'll head out and find 6 months worth of the sunday newspaper so i can protect the whole interior

hmmm I painted my whole interior flat black, but I did regular sand primer spray paint etc. Im not sure about the plastidip on the inside only because it has that rubbery texture and if you do it anywhere that sees alot of 'touching' per say, then it might start to wear down and peel....

but then again, that's why it's plastidip! if it doesnt look good or gets messed up, peel and reapply! =) just go for it!

Someone on here plasti dipped the interior panels with red. I'm sure if you searched you could find it. It looked pretty good.

masterofpuppets · 10-31-2011, 08:18 PM

So I'm going to think outside the box with this. I have curb rash on one of my wheels, and I was going to plastipid them anyway. But I have a pretty good curb rash on my nose just infront of the driver side front tire (caught the edge of my driveway first thing in the morning of a cold day - lower then normal tire pressure = lower car. DOH!). Thinking about, since my car is black anyway, doing the entire underside of the front lip. It should cover it up fine enough. If the same thing happens again, I scrape the plastidip. Peel it off and reapply.

We'll see.

Will wax change the "look" of plasti dip?

I wouldn't recommend waxing plasti dip. It has a pretty rough texture, I feel it would chew up the wax.

OK, just concerned if I accidentally got wax on it or quick detailer. I try to be careful with wax around the factory matte black rally stripes, since I do not want any shine. But, it still happens. Has anybody gotten wax on the plasti dip yet? I just ordered a can, literally 10 minutes ago, to do the front & rear bowties. btw nice right up.

just did my mirrors today

Not sure if this has been mentioned but just a quick heads up, Plasti-dip now comes with 'enhancers.' The three additions include a glossifier, metallizer gold, and metallizer silver.

Though I don't know if you have to reapply the tape for enhancers or if you can add it to the original stuff before it dries...

Sincerely, Victory
