Just curious, since I have never done a body before. Can this same process be done to the inside of a clear body? I am asking cause maybe the clear coat can be skipped since the clear body will act like a clear coat?

Looks good the clear really brought out the color....also i'm a sucker for neon green....

Thanks guys!!! The plasti dip goes on the outside, at least that's what I was told. So don't know if you can bypass clear coat.

I bet you could spray it on the inside of a clear body and it would look good.

Either way the good thing about it, if you don't like the way it looks just peel it off.

You can spray it inside. I had some overspray on mine. Looks fine just lacks that pop that paint can give. And bubbles easily form if you don't go very light.

I have it on the outside too but not in high scratch areas. You'll need to let us know how it holds up on roll overs!

That color really catches the eye, esp with the clear coat!

Will do, once the weather gets better.

Let's see those decals on there!

 

[claude bigelow]

Got to go back to drawing board, decals not sticking to plasti dip.

Got to find some other material to make decals.

 

[chapinb]

Can you spray a little top coat either under or over the decals?

 

[mwilsonjr]

Where did you get the rubber paint

 

[claude bigelow]

That's what I was thinking, maybe the clear coat will hold them in place. I bought it at Pep Boys.

Looks great! Did you happen to still have some sticker residue on the side there? I had some on mine and figured, "oh this stuff will be a thicker coating and should just cover/dry smoothly over it".... but it's just like paint in that aspect lol. After i shot the 1st coat it stuck out like crazy!! Good thing I was able to cover them with decals! lol

Not sure what you plan on using for the grill/headlights but I picked up a set the KillerRC grill/headlight/tail light decal kit and they fit GREAT!

I'm still waiting on my red number decals, then I think I'll pick me up some of that clear coat to go over all the decals.

Man that looks really good, still trying to figure out what I'm going to do. I'll post some pic once I do.
