RE: My Plastidip Style 6 Wheels - fam1x - 19-11-2012 12:24pm Cool thanks, You said you used a whole spray can per wheel. How much was in each can as in the UK the can's vary in size from 750ml to 5Litre. My Plastidip Style 6 Wheels - Jai - 19-11-2012 12:26pm I used the aerosol cans of 310grammes. Premixed ready to go. Probably cheaper to buy the bulk product but not within my means of application where I live Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk Re: My Plastidip Style 6 Wheels - Easty - 19-11-2012 06:02pm This is a great idea. Not sure its good for the cold, but for summer wheels or if it does not get cold its great.

I simply sprayed a whole can of it onto each wheel, approximately 7-8 coats, waiting 10 mins between coats, and then 4-5 coats of glossifier to make the wheels shine, a look that is sorta in between satin and gloss. This looks really awesome! Going to persuade my husband to buy and do this for me as a Christmas gift. Great job Jai!

RE: My Plastidip Style 6 Wheels - barks - 21-11-2012 01:50am Hi Jai, where abouts in Oz are you? Did you paint the inside of the rims as well? My Plastidip Style 6 Wheels - Jai - 21-11-2012 02:56am In WA. Nah I didn't do the inside of the rims, the brake dust after my first month of ownership seemed to be enough to cover the insides Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk RE: My Plastidip Style 6 Wheels - stiggz - 21-11-2012 05:37am What is the gold on the first shot?
