Default Let's Plasti-Dip some stuff...

So... I want to Plasti-dip my wheels (white), but I don't have a garage available to do the painting (or jack-stands). I've got a bunch of paint for my wheels and a spare can of the matte black paint. Anyone interested in lending out their garage who also wants to plasti-dip some stuff? I'd be willing to donate the spare can of black dip for others to use. I've used a little bit of it to spray my exhaust silencers, but there should be enough in the can to do a bunch of emblems, etc. or 1 wheel, lol.

If you daily your S, this is a bad idea. They are hard to clean and they get dirty very fast. White looks good when it's cleaned up but trust me they get nasty quick lol.

How does it stand up to rock chips? I just ordered a wheel kit this morning to do gunmetal, I want to see if I'd be happy with my wheels plastidipped before I shell out the money to get them repainted.

My S is not my daily. And it seems like my wheels get very dirty very fast anyway. I can always remove it if I don't like it (paint has been purchased, so no backing out, lol).

They hold out pretty good ..... I had them on my other rims but remember you have to out at least 5 coats, so if you choose to remove them. It will come off easily .
