Thanks guys I drive back and forth to Ca from Az all the time and see a lot of miles on the interstate and i didnt want to do something that was just going to chip off with ease. Also where are you guys getting it from?

The Lowes by me had black, white, red, blue, and glossifier. I went to Ace the same day and they have the Glossifier and Smoke.

I would say that Plastidip is great for doing small things such as emblems and inside plastics as long as they arent the pieces that are going to have a lot of physical wear done to them. Plastidip is a latex based paint so it has a sort of elasticity to it, so after it completely dries it's fairly durable to direct contact but one wrong rub on an edge where the paint isnt wrapped around it, it'll start to peel off.

I plan on doing my dash in it but the door panel and surround plastic I will be spraying with automotive paint for durablity. In the end Plastidip is a temporary paint, or semi-permanent for accents and thing that will be left alone, most times, from wear and tear.

-END RANT- ;)
