I actually found it better to do with the wheels still on the car and just cover up everything in there.This is how it turned out.I think it looks pretty cool 5 Link to comment https://www.fordxr6turbo.com/forum/topic/79687-the-plastidip-thread/page/39/#findComment-1388309 Share on other sites More sharing options...

Just do really really light coats (should take 5 or 6 coats before it even covers it completely). Do 15-20 coats like that and should cut itself properly On 11/05/2013 at 7:34 AM, Bigkeels said: does anyone know if you can get a plastidip almost the same colour as the standard ford silver rim colour, like lux packs and so onNope! You can get grey which is darker but that's it. Have a look on the main plastidip website, they have all the colours on there Link to comment https://www.fordxr6turbo.com/forum/topic/79687-the-plastidip-thread/page/39/#findComment-1388496 Share on other sites More sharing options...
