Its weird to wash because it is rubbery and not smooth, but does clean up okay.
But they are the only ones around here that have any in colors besides black :/

Yeah i just put tape over the lugs, and i only used about a can and a half. The cans were like $7 at Lowes.

And that is one of the reasons that our cars don't need paint restorations like some of yours. Sorry... It took me literally 20 seconds to peel the stripes off of my car, and when applied took only 1 hour to dry, and took a lot less time to enjoy it since you peel the masking tape off as soon as you apply the last coat (which all the coats are done in 3 minutes or less, with no runs). Plasti-Dip has a clear advantage over spraypaint for testing ideas. I'm going to be putting a different stripe design on mine next week, no paint thinner involved.

when you go to lows and home depot you will find it in the paint section but when you go to an ace or local hardware look by the tools and saws that is where I found it at

Bandit, sorry it took a while to reply, I had cleared them earlier that day, i VHT tinted them months ago, back before it was my car, and they had never gotten clear coat, tough to see the ceta in this pic but it looks great in person. IMO anyway

So I was bored waiting for some job calls today so I figured I'd play a little. I'm not sure how I like these but what the hell, I'll just peel it off. First one is obvious and I like it but the rear was something I was wanting to try. I got the idea from a viper I saw the other day that had a similar design and I think if I do it again, I'll leave the posts pewter to give a little color back there. This stuff is pretty cool though. I got it at 5 bucks a can at home depot
