I've seen plenty of Plasti Dip projects throughout the forum, but no "official" place to gather all the posts. I figured I'd make a thread dedicated to my favorite stuff ever invented I know some of you hate it, and some don't know what it is, but if you'd like to show off your "dip" jobs or just have a question, post 'em up


Plasti Dip - "A colored rubberized coating that people can use to "modify" parts of their car at a cheap price. Easy to use, affordable, and a great way to customize your vehicle the way you want. They come in a variety of colors and instantly peels off if you want to change the color or go back to its stock color."

Great thread lunchbox, and some great examples of what Plasti Dip can be used for. I used it for my winter wheels which were starting to not look that great after a couple of seasons - and they came out great, and are holding up very well after 2 or 3 seasons of use.

I'm not sure of the price of it elsewhere in Canada here, but our local supplier wants $18 a can!!!! So I've been picking it up down in the US at Home Depot for ~$6 a can.

Have you tried any of the other brands?
