Dipped My Ralliart

Well I dipped my Rotorglow Orange Ralliart about a month ago and haven't posted anything, I dipped my rims white and it looks amazing! but the pics I have are just of the rims when they are black! I will post more tomorrow! what you guys think? and the pictures make it look more of a blue then a mint! but in person its definatley a minty color! its intense teal with 2 top coats of seafoam green.

Looks good but good luck keeping those wheels clean. White is the biggest pain in the *** to keep clean. Its like once you spend all this time cleaning them then drive down the block and they are filthy again.

Looks good . love the color. My friend dipped his car, and it ended up taking the clear coat off, and damaged his paint. Did you rattle can or spray gun?

It only removes the clear coating if there was a bad paint job or the clear coat had been sun faded over like 20 years

Looks good. You're not going to dip the front chrome trimming on the grill?

I have a question.....I see you're in Utah...Im considering at some point dipping my RA. I like the fact that its not permanent, lots of color options, and relatively inexpensive compared to a nice paint job. My concern is that i live in the Chicagoland area and the winters around here blow. This past winter we had -40 degree windchill and such crap. How would that hold up against weather conditions like that?

Plasti dip is rated for -70 and 345 degrees farenheit I believe!
