The only real weakness of PD is the edges. If you lift and edge it will continue to peel as time goes by, like a decal or sticker.

Chemicals can also damage it.

If you dont have an exposed edge it should hold well.

Looking for a little advice. Do you guys think the grey or anthracite plasti-dip color would look good in trying to color match the bumbers and handles on a grey f150?

Anyone know how well stickers hold up on PD? Want to do my emblems then color match vinyl decals over but don't want them to fall off in a month.

I wouldn't do stickers over PD. The whole idea is being able to change if you don't like it but you'd lose your stickers if you peeled it off.
