Plasti Dip ideas

Recommended Posts

That looks great! I really like the white roof. I have my daily driver's roof coated right now to test it out before putting any on the mini. Black golf with a didn't-put-on-enough-coats red roof.

 

 

Thanks, I saw where pd now has a primer. I think that will be a must next time. I plan on laying out a design on the white soon. I have a couple ideas I need to test before the picinic

That should be cool. I got a little heavy handed with the exacto and made a few scratches on the golf so be careful.

 

I have been considering a full dip JCW style black with a red roof.

I have always liked that color combo. Thanks for the heads up on the exacto, it took a line or two to get the pressure right. I am happy with the way it turned out for a first try. I got a little bleeding on a few tape lines, the humidity in the garage apparently made the tape not bond fully in places.

WOW! That's awesome. Very nice job laying out the lines. Are you going to use a glossifier on it?

 

 

I haven't played with the glossifier, so I need to look at some results. At there moment just staying mat

Wow, that came out great!

 

Thanks, it is a bit of a monet. When standing back it looks great, but if you get up to it you see the inperfections. If I decide to keep it I will redo in paint which sure sharpen the lines.

 

So when are we PDing a union jack on the Lotus:laugh:
