It is not bad. My roommate and i can peel the entire car in 30 mins. For trouble some areas, get some goo gone and it comes right off.

The texture depends on how well the person spraying lays it down as well as the texture of your paint. If you have a good paint job already and you are good with plastidip it will come out smooth. My first time doing it wasn't too hot but it was a learning experience and my blue dip job turned out 100 times better. It just takes practice. Best part is you can remove it as many times as you like until you get it right

White does get dirty very quickly. But when its clean, it is so bright you can't look at it in direct sunlight, no lie. You don't need to keep respraying it, I pressure washed it every 3 days and spot cleaned it with simple green when it needed
