lame. due to the weather forecast being so unreliable and not having a garage, i will be rocking 2 green wheels and 2 stock wheels for the rest of the week.

lol.... take a picture of it... :D

donsun

pictures are meaningless because driver's side is green and passenger side is stock. i alrdy posted pics of driver's side alrdy and i think there's enough stock cement pics floating around

How tough is this plasi-dip? I want to paint the spokes of my 16" XXRs.

^havn't tried going at it or anythign myself but from reading around, it'll endure the typical automatic car washes and pressure washing. I think I read that some have had it on for a year and a half now but some have reported that it does fade over time from being in the sun so a coat of paint or clearcoat might actually help it last longer.

Cool. Just any type of paint to coat or do you need need high temp?

I don't think any of us have had it on long enough to know for sure if regular paint works... it's easy to redo and cheap, so I'd say just go with whatever outdoor paint has the color you want

Hmmm purple 002s...

I've pressure wash my wheels twice already and nothings has happened....

Sorry if I missed it but is there a DIY for this?

donsun

not really a DIY but u can check mo's or mightyP's build thread. just 1 can of plasti dip/wheel with 30 mins between coats. 2 hrs later i did 3 coats of paint/wheel (10 mins between coats) and 1 hr later 3 coats of clear/wheel (10 mins between coats).

rAaR

when i was reading up on plasti dip i kept reading ppl who put paint on their plastidip wheels without a good day worth of dry time causes the paint to react with the plasti dip and it changes the material and it no longer becomes peelable.

urs ok with only 2 hour dry time?

Stuff is awesome, dries really fast and leaves a very nice finish...but it peels very easily once it gets the smallest nick or blemish .

donsun

hm maybe it won't peel easily. i don't really care too much since i'm satisfied with the color i ended up with. i guess i'll find out when it does come time for me to take it off. i'm planning on buying wheels anyways so i don't mind too much if it doesn't peel. i'll just get it powdercoated in the future then.
