Vinyl would have more give than paint but I'd imagine plastidip would be the same given that its essentially rubber Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Rossnall Bronze Donating Members 72 Member For: 12y 7m 22d Gender: Male Location: Bundaberg, QLD Posted 12/06/12 06:31 AM Share Posted 12/06/12 06:31 AM (edited) I haven't done a car, but I've bought a couple of cans to do my standard wheels. I did a test at work on a steel bin. Only did 2 coats as a test and peeled ok. Not as easily as in the vids, but they do 5 coats and would be a lot stronger than what I did.I'd say it would peel that easy going by this, but didn't really have a "cut line" like they do either.Worth a shot to see if OP likes it matte, leave it for a while and if he does, then get it painted?

Got these sheets for $5sqm delivered! Heat gun was $60ish I think. Few hours practice. Was smart enough to use my brothers car as test dummy.
