Plasti-dipped Mirror Covers and Spoiler

[czuozo13]

So I thought I would make my 2016 Ingot Silver EcoBoost Mustang a little different. I decided on blacking out the spoiler and mirror covers with black plasti-dip to go along with the blacked out emblems.

will that plastidip hold up to numerous washings and regular sun?

It should as long as you put enough coats. I never had a problem on my previous car.

My spoiler has been dipped for months and it's holding up fine.

Cool. I had tried to color my rear emblem Matte Black using a rustoleum product, but it started peeling right away.

Yea I have had it on for over 3 months now and I live in Miami where it is always hot and I regularly wash my car. (every week or so)

I recently redid my spoiler only because I wanted to try the glossifier. Which didnt turn out the way I had hoped.

Any pics of what it looks like with glossifier? I've never tried that before

I know its not a great pic but my 335 wheels were plastidipped with gloss. they were a pretty good looking satin finish. Im normally hard against plastidip but no one could tell these were dipped.

a little bit better view, they had a slight bit of texture but imo they looked pretty close to most satin finishes. on something as flat as the mirror or spoiler I'm not sure how the texture would look

Thanks. Nice car! I had considered it on the last car but just ended up getting black wheels in the end.

is there a gloss black plastidip? or do people usually add a gloss layer over the plastidip

From my understanding it is an additional layer after you've applied regular coats of color

every plasti dip is a flat finish, you can then add the gloss on top, or a pearl. The gloss is easier to peal though. In all honesty the gloss still is a pain to get off, it comes off but in little chunks rather than one sheet like normal dip. on my wheels I just soaked them in WD40 and pressure washed the goo off.
