Plasti-dipped grill and bumpers?

[Bsbalser]

Has anyone done this and have pics?

I have but not sure how to add pics from the phone

Did you just spray right over the chrome ? or did you do something to prep it first ?

Here's a pic of my grill. It's super easy to do. If you don't it, it peels off really easy. No prep really, just make sure the surface is clean.

How many coats did you di

[je1279]

I used 5 light coats on my grille. To prevent over spray behind it I removed it from the truck which requires you to remove the painted part of the bumper also. I ended up using almost two full cans in total.

Here's mine. Did the bumpers, grille surround, fender moldings, emblems...

I did my grill and badges all the way around. It is pretty simple as long as you prep properly it will last and turn out really good. I’m getting ready to coat my bumpers and maybe my rims.

Is that flat black? I have been wanting to do my honeycomb grill but may have to do the whole grill and headlights now after seeing yours.

Yes it’s flat black. Plasti dip also has glossifier that might put more of a shine on it. I did a couple of coats of the glossifier over the three coats of smoke on the tail lights. I’m debating on doing my headlight trim or leave it. I will have to see how I like it with the black bumpers.

I worked some photoshop magic so you can see all of the chrome deleted.

That’s what I’m going for. Thanks for the visual. I found that I can do vinyl for the bumpers. It’s gonna be cheaper than powder coating/painted/new bumpers. It will stand up better than plastidip too.

Pre cut vinyl? Where are you getting it from?

I’m not sure. It will probably just be a roll or two of it. I have been watching a lot of YouTube videos on the subject. I know it’s gonna be a little bit of a pain in the butt since I did all my interior accents in Realtree vinyl.
