Default PlastiDip help

I just ordered my vinyl overlays for my front grill badge and my tailgate badge(Moody Blue). I understand I need to PlastiDip the chrome portion of the emblem, especially the rear one. I have the rear camera. Is there a great set of instructions on how to do the PlastiDip? I have never done this before, so any assistance will be appreciated.

Yep. Like the tenant in the movie "Lady in the Water".

Not too hard to do. I just use it like spray paint. Make sure your emblems are good and clean then do 2-3 light coats let dry for about 15 minutes and do it again until the entire emblem is covered. As for the camera just a piece of masking tape will cover it. No need to mask off once its dry you can peel it off the paint or grill...wherever doesn't come off wipe with some goo gone or goof off and it will clean right up. Hope this helps...oh and overlays will be in the mail tomorrow!
