Plasti-Dip Rims on my '11 Speed3
- Thread starter SRH_3GT
- Start date
/facepalm @ whoever decided to paint those rims while on the car and didn't even cover the tires.
I was testing things out. Painting the rims with the tires on will not hurt it. I comes right off. I was wanting to see what would happen if I left the rims on the car. All I can say is, don't. Take the tires/rims off the car.
I do not know who the weather is, there in the Tampa area, but, here in Deep South Texas, the freaking heat and humidity sucks. In the near future, I will pull the dip off, amd take the tires off the car. I will then redo all of the plasti dip.

Dip Your Car
Im going to try this real soon I think. I would take the wheels off the car but you don't have to mask off the tire.

Well, there is no one, here in the Valley, that I would trust to power coat my rims. I would have to go up there to San Antonio or Houston to have the work done.

Im coating mine myself eventually....my cars not running yet but before i get it ready to get back on the road im gonna do them. Im just not in a rush at the moment. But probably in the next couple of months they will be done.
I'm not in a rush as well. I still need to drive my car up there and get it tuned since the fuel pump has been changed. Plasti-Dip will work for right now. I'm going to plasti-dip my whole car in a matte black color. By having my car BLACK, I hope people will stop hitting it. ugh....

We do not have a powder coater here in the Valley. I'm going to get my friend, who owns a body shop, to start offering that service. There are many people down here who want that done to their vehicles.

hahahaha did not even cover the tire wow definitely would never go to you for this, hahahaha sorry man but thats just stupid silly so promote your work thats not even done correctly
well a**wipe, I was testing the crap on my car. I've already taken off the stuff since the rims are going to be powder coated this week. I was tired of having to clean the brake dust all the time. Since this was posted, I've already done several different things to the vehicle since I'm using my own vehicle as a test car.
