I just stick newspaper in behind the spokes to cover everything up.spray the wheels a few times then a bit later carefully take the newspaper out and if youve done it thick enough most of the overspray on the tyres comes off in one piece.I did the whole jacking car up taking wheels off crap but it was too hard and not needed at all.spray them on the car for the win.

Jstplyn Member 65 Member For: 11y 1d Gender: Male Location: Melbourne, Victoria Posted 29/11/13 09:24 AM Share Posted 29/11/13 09:24 AM Hey guys so today I decided to grab a can of black plastidip, I have done the front lip at the moment and I love it, it come up really well, I did 3 coats only about half hour in between each other outside.Tomorrow I might have a go at doin the badges, has anyone got any tips I don't really want to take them off the car? Or am I better off just buying some already black off the net? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
wados Member 617 Member For: 20y 28d Gender: Male Location: brisbane Posted 01/12/13 11:17 AM Share Posted 01/12/13 11:17 AM Here is another option that I have tried since as I had peeling issues with the armour all version. This is an australian company and I have found it so much better as you can get the gun and buy it by the litrehttp://www.evolvedcoatings.com.au/ 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
