    Ok so I went to plasti dip the chrome off of my 2014 LTZ RS. I took a bunch of time prepping and I even cleaned everything with acetone. Laid about four coats on every part and piece . Let it dry for 30 minutes between coat. When I went to peel off it was incredibly thin and difficult to get...

    First time using plasti dip. Unfortunately, the humidity was high during application, but only time I could do it. Drying times sucked. 2014 auto. I added glossafier on top of a black base coat. Left the middle emblem in the tire untouched with the lugs. Still hasn't cured completely. Do you...

    I decided to give plasti dip on my wheels a try. I have access to a paint booth at work so that made the whole process a lot easier and faster. Although I have to re-do them because I didn't use the "quarter" trick. So when I put my first lug nut on it peeled it off. But I think they came out...

    I have a 2012 Cruze LTZ RS with stock OEM wheels. I went to dinner the other night and noticed another cruze with what looked like stock wheels with plasti dip on them. I want to do the same thing to my wheels, just wondering what the secret is to doing it well and what is a good type to get...

    I accidentally got tire shine on my plasti dipped rims and now it looks awful. Is there any way to remover the tire shine or can I just apply another layer of dip onto the rims?

    So I've been going for the blackout on my summit white 2014 LT. I have everything blacked out except wheels and windows (window tint coming soon). My question for the wheels is, do they have a coating on them that prevents plasti dip from sticking? I was wondering how long the plastip will last...

    Planning to do this and need some tips and pics too. I've searched here and found pics of it done and looks really clean. Did you plasti dip the grille too while doing the chrome trim?

    Just an update. Last June I plastidipped some of the exterior (front, rockers,rear) of my Eco and the interior trim.

    To anyone of you who have used black Plasti-Dip, how well does the finish match this part? currently this part of the car- the applique trim as they call it, is covered in scratches. Instead of spending the ridiculous price of about $30 a piece of replacing them, I've decided maybe to...
  15. Gen1 Appearance/Body Tutorials
    This weekend, I went against my own intuition and took a spray can to my 2 week old Chevy. I wanted to turn the gold on the emblems black as well as remove the "Cruze"and "LT" lettering. I think it turned out great! First, I first took off the lettering and here's how: First, I simply...

    I am toying with the idea of dipping some parts on my car. Namely the front and rear emblems. Maybe the wheels, and then I have the 2015 with the new front end so I was considering dipping the bottom most lip between the LEDs black to make it look more like the RS which has two black strips...

    I bought a stock red CTD and I'm looking to change it up and make it stand out from the hundreds of other Cruzes around town appearance wise and performance wise. I want to black out the roof, but not with paint. I've seen some results of vinyl wrap and many PlastiDip projects but I cant...

    I was thinking about plasti dipping the stock wheels black and have the bow tie in the middle red to match the red bow ties on the car. Maybe get some nice new chrome lugnuts on the car. I'm not sure how it will look though. The other question is matte black or should it be glossy finish? I'm...
