It's still way different than normal paint. Normal paint doesnt just "peel" off in 1 peice, it chips. Plastidip doesnt chip off so that's a huge plus. Also normal paint would be 10x harder to remove, with platidip once you get an edge up, you can start pulling everything off and leaves the surface just like before you applied it underneith. So if you spray your OEM wheels, you can peel it off and you still have your OEM finish. With wheel paint you will have to sand the wheels down for them to look decent. Then if you want to remove it you have to strip it or sand it all off which is a pretty big task, then you have to re-do them since it won't be a nice finish anymore.

I would recomend getting a can per wheel because it starts dying on your, but if you dedicate one can to each wheel, at the beginning with high pressure you spray normally, at a nice distance to have an even spread, but when the can content is low the spray weakans ofcourse and thats a good time to fill in an holes/spots you didnt get the first few rounds without making it to runny.

I actually just did my element wheels today
But please refer back to the other thread for more qeustions.
