I pulled all my plasti dip off, sprayed my rims, and coated my fuel door with VHT crinkle coat and everything looks awesome and I don't have to worry about it bubbling or pulling away from anything.

Plast dip is great if you want to see how black would look on something but its not for the long term by any means.

Good to know. Thanks.

How bad was it to spray your rims? Alot of prep? I'd love to do mine.

I didn't prep mine at all because I just wanted to see how the black looked. That probably aided in the peeling I endured with the Plasti Dip.

When I painted them I scuffed all the chrome, cleaned, and masked off everything.
