Default Plasti dip with glossifier on bumpers

So I've seen hundreds of pics of plasti dipped bumpers but couldn't ever find any with the glossifier to so I figure I'd be the guinea pig and try it out since I wanted to do my bumpers anyway. I'll be honest, the glossifier is a waste of money!!!!! It looks no different than just the black plasti dip alone. I'm kinda happy with the results but was hoping the glossifier would make it shine somewhat like the paint itself. Oh well, it'll work until the bumpers get PTM. Lol. Here's a few pics anyway.

I like the badge ive never seen one done just around the edge before. Looks good!!

I agree on the bumpers it doesnt look much different then the normal plasti dip. It would work for me though, its a hell of alot cheaper than PTM.

Did you tape off the center before spraying it? Was it hard to take off without other parts of the outer edge peeling?

Yes I taped it off and used an exacto knife to cut the tape around the edge of the chrome. It may be easier to pull the tape back off before the plasti dip dries so it won't want to peel off of the chrome. I ended up waiting a little to long and had to cut it away with the exacto knife.
