Then I will proceed to dip the entire car to protect the fresh paint. That cheap enough for you? Plus. There's plenty of pros to using this stuff. Its temporary. Its not crap like regular rattle cans, though it can be bought in that form. But anywho, carry on :P I'm gonna go poop and eat dinner |

plastidip actually protects paint, and if it starts to look bad you can just peel it off, its really not even close to the same thing

Anywho. Think this is a reasonable question to ask in this thread: Does anyone know if plastidip provides any kind of sound deadening? I have some leftover and I just finished installing my doluck trunk the other day and was thinking of lining the interior portion of the trunk lid with this stuff, but only if it has any benefit. I keep x2 12" subs in the trunk for daily driving. Thanks for anyone who gives any feedback on this |

I'm sure it would deaden sound to some extent but probably not much unless you really used tons of it
lol |

It's rude to laugh but it is kind of funny. He/She is the one who didn't lay anything down underneath the car. On a positive not, I guess they could take everything out of their garage and do the whole floor. I mean why not, 1/4 of it is already done.

Are a majority of you guys using the spray or paint on? Spray I'm guessing. All look very clean I haven't noticed any drip

For the smaller things, most ppl use the rattle cans. Usually doesn't leave runs/drip marks in the paint itself unless you just blast it all over like crazy. Its very easy to do. I've used this stuff to make eyelids for my friends car, because he is the definition of a cheapskate and diidnt want to spent the $15 for the premade fiberglass ones that come primered lol |

How are folks doing the emblems/badges? I imagine its a PITA to tape them off, but so is taking them off and trying to get them back on.
