Gauging interest on plasti dip

[Supra_Fanatics]

Reading bro. wyldemdd replies, you may need to use spray gun too. I agree will have more even spray as constant pressure. Spray can pressure can go up and down.
Maybe can borrow (maybe rent...ha! ha!) from bro. Izso to try.....
Spray can may be more expensive too....

It is, I need 20 cans and he needs only 9 Dip cans. In a long run a spray gun is better for
larger surface to dip.

I think it will stick just as good as it stick on metal or plastic. The most important is how you prep your material before spraying. Make sure the windshield clean and not oily. I'm gonna try it myself soon when I got my stock on hand.

For a even spray without texture with spray can make sure you don't stop too many point each time spraying for example : bonnet starting from most left till most right side you go all the way spraying and not stoppping at the middle or so.

Get a can spray gun handle too to avoid finger getting tired of triggering the spray nozzle.

Awesome Idea indeed. Thanks for sharing man! But I think best spray on the outside and not inside.
Gonna be a mess and u r gonna breathe in those harmful vapor smell...

I got the trigger, because I can't get a consistent speed and amount of plastidip sprayed if I
were to use my finger alone. I get tired to continue with my finger.

With the trigger is as though u r operating from the spray gun. I can do for hours
without sweat.

Haha thanks for the feedback. Shall do it soon since morning sunlight is too bright!
BTW, I sprayed my handles on my persona, it stuck quite well. Haha. I put a tape on the inner handle.
Family, gf, friends all touched it. They are still okay. :D

If u afraid that it will tear out easily, can spray clear coat on it. The bond will be stronger.
Don't do under hot sun, do in a shade bro.

Not state by me but by professionals

Wow u should bring your gf out to TT

I clear coated it with the normal clear coat by Anchor. That's why i said not nice to peel afterwards. The dried clear coat will be flaky.

If spray outside on front windscreen, better leave space for wipers.....:rolleyes:

 

[Izso]

wyldemdd : What proportion of xylene / naptha / toulene to the PD?

Hardly need to use wipers already now ever since windscreen wax frequently

 

[wyldemdd]

50:50 ratio = if the PD is 429ML then you need to mix 429ML of xylene/toulene/naptha. You can go for 60:40 ratio but eventually you need to do more coat since the PD is thinner in it's form.

hi guys,

sorry i did search thru this thread for shops and found ace hardware Midvalley and ikano centre near the curve. Do we have anymore shops available for this PD? It seems like the one sold at the ikano do not need to be diluted first but the MD we need naphta to dilute and spray gun as well right? I'm trying to convert my little rim to some flat black color using PD. Spray shop takes 3-4 days to respray my rims, so i was thinking maybe PD is one day and DIY?

Rims I think using Spray Cans is good enough, like what PocketRocket did also with Spray Cans.
The one selling at Ikano is it in gallon or size of spray cans? if size of spray cans have
to dilute it. Hardly even can find any PD selling in gallons..

1 thing for me is that even if we are busy after plastidip, really cant send for car wash
outside anymore

My emblems PD are tearing off a bit, cuz told those foreigners still don't understand not to use
the cloth to wipe or wash the black parts
