Another one of those days where i got bored! I used the Plasti-dip i had left over from doing my shark fin antenna and did my entire grill. I intended to peal off the plasti-dip from the lexus L but i decided to leave it. I can always peal it off whenever i want then re-spray it if i like it black again. That's the beauty about plasti-dip. If you guys don't know about plasti-dip look it up on youtube. There's also a guy out there selling complete packages to do this to your entire car at www.dipyourcar.com

 

looks good was that whole roll of blue tape???

 

honestly i think it may have been a 1/4 of the roll hahaha. but better safe i suppose. though any over spray rubs off.

 

That's a spray...you can peel it off? Doesn't look bad.

 

How many coats? I tried that stuff with my cell phone battery cover and even with 3 coats it peels right off very easily..I hope you have better luck..especially with bugs and rocks chipping it

 

Yeah it's a spray. You can get it from Home Depot

 

It's like 4 coats. I'm not too worried about chips and bugs. the product is on the soft side. This guy used a 1800 psi pressure washer on his car and it didn't chip.

It does look nice.

 

I aint mad at ya, you did a great job!!!! I had some plastic dip at one time did some emblems and loved it. versatile stuff, plus like you stated if you dont like it you can peel it off.

 

Nice!! Looks good...

 

wanting to try the same thing.

why not just remove the grill from the car, then spray it?

(no clue what the effort would be)

 

because it's plasti-dip. With this product you don't need to remove parts. Your masking isnt even supposed to be exact. i actually have a 1/2 inch edge that was exposed so it could just peal off the excess.

 

is any prep work needed?

other than cleaning the surface.

looks good!

 

^^^
Just clean it off. No real prep.

 

... But dont u have a radiator that u also sprayed?

I used this on my grill too. It looks great on your car bro. There is also a plasti dip glossifier u can use if u get tired of the flat black.
