Has anyone tried plastidip on their chrome grills?

I have seen some great youtube tutorials - just search for 'dip my car' and there are plenty...

I am waiting for my new Octavia, and want to tone down the grill as it is pretty large against the black bodywork!

I have tried plastidip on a few test surfaces, and it comes out looking great, but wondered if anyone had experience of how it holds up after a few months of washing etc.

Any help gratefully received!

Cheers,

Ben

I've had it on my bumper trims for a few months now, it's put up with chemicals, pressure washers etc and hasn't peeled, chipped or faded

Hey, mine are looking faded, how do you remove them and whats the plastidip process?

Get a blunt knife and lift the trim up at one end, they will then pull out as you work to the opposite side, be careful on the corners as a couple of clips are stubborn.

When they are off just clean them with some hot soapy water and dry them off, they are ready to paint then.

When painting just do long strokes and thin coats, mine took 3-4 coats before I was happy with them

Thanks for the tips!

I will be spraying my grill with black plastidip and also maybe the octavia badge to make it a 'blackline' version...

I will post some pics in a couple of weeks once it is done fingers crossed...
