Plasti dip

Has anyone used plasti dip to paint anything on their car? Im thinking of using it to do my bowties completely flat black and if i dont like the result just take it off and paint it how i have it now (silver inside with flat black outside)

Better make sure the product is UV resistant, or it will not last long exposed to the sunlight.

I used plasti-dip and it's still going strong. I did the bezels, bowties, and the ugly rings on the LS lol. And after months its not even chipping or peeling. And as stated above you can always remove them if you want.
