if you have no idea wha im talking about you can go to any hardware store and they could possiby have it. im hearing rumors like its gonna be disontinued and shit so idk.

Lowes and home depot have it. It's always on the very left of the spray paint section. I have bought it at 4-5 different home depots.

ACE here in Albuquerque has it in Black and White.

what a simple and cool mod it looks great

CamaroC-17 · 10-02-2011, 06:35 PM

Wow man you used a lot of paper and tape to prevent overspray. I used plastic dip on my spoiler, added Hood spears, and did the instep on side of my doors. I just had about 3 strips of tape extra on each side and any over spray beyond that just wiped off with some alcohol.

I really like it! I've been wondering what people use for this.

Yeah I bought it at ACE. They do sell a kit where you can mix your own colors.
I wonder if anyone has used the Clear Plasti-dip as an alternative to 3M to protect the mirrors or rockers/gills. Im sure it could be used that way!

robg91z · 10-03-2011, 12:53 AM

So plastidip can be removed with alcohol? Even when dry or if u mess up ?

NEGXXIS · 10-03-2011, 12:05 PM

I did mine a few weeks ago also

I have been wondering the same. I could especially see it on the lower part of the front bumper where it takes the most punishment.
