Default Plasti dip wheels

I'm thinking about Plastic dipping my wheels black and I was wondering if anyone that's done it could tell me how they came out and how durable it is. Also when you remove the plasti dip does it mess up the paint or chrome or leave any marks?

Ive dipped my wheels, bumpers, rockers, running boards, and grille and its held up extremely well. Like mentioned above dipyourcar.com shows you how to apply it the proper way. Peeling off is easy and no residue or blemishes are left.

Thanks guys. That site helped out . Where can I buy the plasti dip other than online? . I went to Walmart and they said they never heard of it. Would home depot or lowes have it. I want to try to do my emblems and wheels this week if I can

Walmart, lowes and home depot should all have it. It's an uncommon item, so the employee may not know about it. By the spray paint at lowes

Thanks. I checked after I asked at Walmart and couldn't find it. I'll try home depot or lowes tomorrow when I get off work.
