Couldn't you lay down multiple layers of tape and pull off a layer of tape with each coat? Brainstorm idea.

That's a good idea, the only problem is that I think it would be hard to pull one layer of tape off at a time without pulling off all the layers.

when you are done spraying each coat, it is best to turn the can upside down and spray until only air is coming out. this helps with the clogging. learned that the hard way lol.

I'm going to be on the hunt for some dip as well. This thread is fantastic. My car is black so the only thing I aim to dip are the rims but who knows, dipping other areas might create an interesting gloss/flat contrast.
Anyway, how many cans would you guys think for just the rims (RS 20")?

Wow, I've been wanting to black out the chin on my SS for a while now and I've had no luck in finding a piece of vinyl to do this. Looks like a lot of other people have done it with this product, I've got plenty of the blue painters tape from home depot. However spraying on my makes me nervous, I'll have to see if I have something I could practice on.
