I did my gas cap and door handles at the same time, and while are holding up fine the drivers door handle is starting to peel. I will probably re-do it, but considering how many times it is used I'm happy.

Took the Plasti-Dip off of my door handles. That is the nice thing about the stuff---you can remove it at anytime for a different look.

Well I dunno if I would do it in my garage just in case.. But if it's humid out, just give it a longer time to dry in between coats

I did all of my dip in my garage with a bandana over my face. It's very humid and windy here so the garage was my only option

Well, finally caved in and decided to do some plast dippin today. Overall happy with the results and the ease of using this stuff. Did my emlems, mirror refelctors, rear Ford emblem, and front grill. Still considering doing my steps. The more black I put on the truck the more I like it more than the chrome...

When you do the rims do you spray where the lugs tighten in or do u put something around the hole. Upon tightening the lugz the plastidip is wrapping around the lug nut.
