914world dip thread I'm considering this process for my daily driver/beater. ![]() thinking the cost would be around $300ish the finish would seem to be very forgiving (minimal prep)...just want it to look presentable and somewhat clean. curious what results others got...

You're going to spend close to $500 to have it plasti-dipped. But if you're going to spend that much for that kind of work, why not rough up the paint with a DA, and shoot the Dupli-Color stuff you can get at Autozone? I bet you could do a decent driver-quality job for under $400 for paint and supplies.
Or you can go to Home Depot and get the Plasti-Dip basic colors in an aerosol can and do it yourself. Keep in mind though, if the paint has a bunch of holes in it/isn't smooth, that stuff won't just peel off later on. |
