Plastidip Thread

[Manuel Kasko]

Hey Guys,

So I am going to bite the bullet and plastidip my whole car.

I been reading about it and everything to do with the pros & cons

The price is just to good to pass up.

Anyone else done anything using this stuff?

I will post up before and after pictures when I finally get started

yeah thought about doing it for a larf...Where u buying it From..?

[Dori*mon]

Also interested in where you are buying it from. Few mates have used it to spray wheels/body panels etc., none of em have had anything bad to say about it, works as described.

Ebay seller seems to have it.

But check out this website

Few of the guys in whoretown are telling me if I work out the total price its not great.

But I might do a bit more of a search in how much it would cost to do the entire car here in Aus.

I use this stuff gor random bits. 1 can will come close to doing a bonnet.

The only problem is that it is not durable at all. Stone chips will come up very easily.

I think you should do your bonnet or roof first to get a feel for the stuff.

Also to make it look even on a large surface is a pain

just so you know you cant ship it from the US cheaply as its classed as dangerous goods..

I will get it all priced up and post it up in here hopefully tonight

Okay so got a spare minute and worked out a few things.

To spray a skyline you need about 2 x 3.78L

These are priced at $250 on ebay

So $500 for all the paint you will need. (Not including postage but it seems to be around $100)

Then one of my mates has a spray gun so I dont need to worry about that.
