I dipped the top half of my car, and it didnt have the "sheen" that you see on the internet, you'd have to get the spray gun setup from what I understand to really make it look good. I ultimately wasnt happy with it and peeled about 90% of the dip off... the rest is being a bear..... make sure you wax your car first lol

Well my buddy has the equip to spray it.. so ill spray it. And I was gona clean it good before apply. The guy before has a lot of over spray and nasty on the car.. he didnt take his time. They now also have a gloss coat you can put over as a spray and makes it shine. From pics and videos shines prettt well

Jesse, will suction cup camera mounts still hold on to plastidip? Thinking about doing it to mine, but refuse to spend the money it they won't hold.

I really dont know if I would risk it Carl!

Like Joe said above they make a glossifier for it, but it might still be trying to stick a suction cup to sand paper. Because thats how my finish turned out. Very rough. didnt care for it.

Well I figure a matchdd car for 150 plus 50 for gloss finish is better then some mismatched paint and surface rust spots
