Plasti Dip vs real spray paint.

[TuckerTravis]

I just painted Ford oval with the plasti dip paint and I liked it but didn't turn out as cleanly as I had planned. But I really liked the look so tomorrow I think I'm gonna put some real spray paint that will be permanent and be more clean looking. Anybody done the permanent paint?

Like when I was peeling tape off the edges weren't real clean. I'll put a pic up in a bit.

Did you mask directly around the edges of the emblem? If so that's the biggest part of the problem. When you try to pull the masking off it will stick and pull away from the emblem. Try again and leave an inch or two gap all the way around the emblem. Spray it and don't worry about the overspray getting on the paint. When you're done, just peel off whats on the paint around the emblem and it should cut cleanly without pulling any off around the edges of the emblem.

I have seen where paint can be painted over the plastidip and then you can still remove it all if you dont like it later.

Also after last coat of plastidip, remove the tape while it is still wet.
