I do custom graphics work for my customers often, and have found the trick to plastidip is to lay in multiple heavy coats to build durability. Also makes removal easier. But only for trying out a look or for non-permanent applications. That being said, I did my wife's HHR grille 2 years ago with plastidip and still looks perfect.

Looks good. But I'd be surprised if it holds up, without proper prep sanding and adhesion promoter.

His truck looked way better before he “modded” it, hopefully he doesn’t come back and see this
