if done right it can actually look really really sick.
but it takes a pro, and because of how it is applied, and what it is made of it is not good for a vehicle that will see possible scrapes and scratches, because it peels right off.

In the plastidip thread on here I think I read 18 cans for the entire truck. You can probably search plastidip on the forums and it'll be the one with like 40+ pages or something like that

If that last pic is how it comes off then that is exactly what I want with a future getaway vehicle.

lol, it would be a slow getaway vehicle, to completely remove it takes about an hour or more depending on the weather and how old it is.
it is pretty much like removing a bumper stick off glass, some parts peel right off other parts will come off in little bitty pieces.
