Finally tried doing my badges today since they're off the car. Unfortunately, I may have to redo them. I think the can of PlastiDip I have is old (well I know it is) but was still unused.

The texture is rough and it didn't spray on well. I hope it's easy to peel off and start over with a fresh can.

Yap just use something sharp to cut a leading edge and peel slowly. Make sure to shake that can for a good 3 minutes or so. Some of those cans can get really old. Make sure to prime the can and spray onto a piece of cardboard for 10 seconds to make sure its coming out evenly.

Yeah, I've used it before and did front / rear bumpers and side steps on an old diesel truck.

I just think this can was too old. I bought it over 5 years ago.

I shouldn't known better and just bought a new can. I was / have been pressed for time lately and just wanted to get it done.

Oh well. I'll peel it off and get a new can.

I removed my Turbo script and added a 911 in black nearly 10 years ago. Still like the look.

I do love the look for sure.


BTW...You must have used a heavy dose each layer. Yours looks thicker / shinier than mine. Mine's more rough and textured. Yours looks smoother.

But I kinda like the Matt / Textured look of mine, it'll just suck when washing it and drying it. It catches lent.
