Styling Plastidiping my whole car

tomharrison · Oct 9, 2014

Hi all, very soon I will be plastidiping my entire car with a very different colour scheme http://www.google.co.uk/search?q=ir...youtube.com%2Fwatch%3Fv%3DfuLGkXq66Bo;480;360

Can't wait to do it, will Defo be the 1st fiat owner to do so, and maybe the 1st in the UK, done a lot of research on it, will be roughly £250 for all the paint, and I am confident in using a spray gun

I'll update soon

Sounds like a good plan

but your wont be the first though, I know of two grande owners that are on here that have done it.

Yeah, do it up my mates most probably, or I'll put up a awning around the car

Those plastidip chameleon pearls are amazing. One note I here is when laying down the pearls. Light, fast coats. Build it up bit by bit. And travel up and down the length of the car. Don't do a panel at a time or it ends up textured,

I'm on the dip your car forums too mate. I've picked up all sorts of hints and tips from there.

Might have to have a look at that, this colour is called iron man, it's red base with komodo dip pearls

carlorff · Oct 14, 2014

Do you know the price?

tomharrison · Oct 15, 2014

£270 for all the paint, i won't be doing now, my engines blown

quick question

is it true with dipping that you don't have to declare it as a new colour to your insurance or V5? as with wrapping? not that there is a problem with declaring.. just a thought
cheers
