Lets Talk Plasti Dip

I'm thinking about plasti dipping some of my interior panels and found that Plasti Dip has an aluminum and carbon fiber option. Has anyone used either of those? How well did they come out and for anyone who's used Plasti Dip, how have you liked the results?

I used plasti dip on the small triangles where the mirrors are and they look/are holding up fine. I also used it on my sail panel and it looks good for a while then the color starts to fade so it looks kinda grey now.

i plasti dipped the bumpers on my truck over a month ago and it seems to be holding up well no chips or anything. not sure about interior pieces, if they will be touched or rubbed on a lot, then the plasti dip will rub off. personally i would only use it on the exterior because of that.

I have plasti dipped the center stack in my car. Over 5k miles and where my leg rides up against the center stack has not peeled yet. A few spots I dont think I cleaned good enough bubbled on my but they are not noticeable. If I get bored enough this winter I may take it back apart and use a flat trim paint but im not thinking thats going to happen since the dip is holding up so good on the ***** and buttons.
