Plastidip front lip
I see a lot of people on here with the front lip plastidip. I am gunna do that. I was wondering when I mask off my bumper and spray it down and have it black, how do I remove the tape and keep a sharp edge with peeling up the rubber?!

How do you do multiple coats then if you have to peel the tape right away

i dont think it will work with multiple coats... I did my front and back with plasti dip yesterday and for the front i sprayed one thick coat from left to right... and then i quickly removed the tape from left to right but when i reached the right side it was already drying up. So i had to wait for the whole thing to dry then peel it off then do it over again.... i learned my lesson.

What about emblems - I don't plan on taking off the Scion Emblem at the back and have done this one and re-doing it. Do people mostly leave it on and just peel around? I saw one guy just make a square around his emblem and then just peel around and it peeled perfectly. will this work?

Is your car lowered? Do you have any pictures of the front lip head on? I'm looking to just see the angles you used. Did you just do one coat for the front?

Hey in reference to that video: Did he just allow it to overspray right on the car paint in that square and then peal the plastidip right off his paint?
He made it look easy.
To the gentleman in the white car above. How did you seal off the SCION text? Did you peal the plastidip from the emblem the the guy in the video? Or tape it?
Also do you think that one coat will be good enough? I see you mentioned it however was a thick coat. I suppose you could always tape again and paint one more layer if need be.
My car is already black so I cant do that many cool things.

Here's how it's done on a scion -

Yeah you overspray and then it peels easier - won't leave anything on the car when you spray evenly.

It will stick to all but theres a gap between the emblem and the car so that's likely why it peeled fairly nicely.
