pipi135 Posted November 5, 2012 Share Posted November 5, 2012 plastidip smoke that is. figured i would try it out since i found it locally. the plan was to use the plastidip glossifier but i would have had to order it online which would cost $23 for one can. it does have a matte finish though, but i kinda like it what do you think? http://i479.photobucket.com/albums/rr151/thePipinator/subaru%20outback/IMG_0920-1.jpg Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

compsurge Posted November 5, 2012 Share Posted November 5, 2012 Considering how it looks stock, I think you did well (and won't put others at risk of rearending you). Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
EJ25subie05 Posted November 5, 2012 Share Posted November 5, 2012 i used VHT nite-shades, used one coat on the whole thing of red and three on the chrome (clear) part and i like it. yours look good but look dull due to not having the glossifier (regular clear coat won't work)???

pipi135 Posted November 5, 2012 Author Share Posted November 5, 2012 thanks for your opinions guys Considering how it looks stock, I think you did well (and won't put others at risk of rearending you). ya, its just a light tint. especially compared to what i see on the roads now i used VHT nite-shades, used one coat on the whole thing of red and three on the chrome (clear) part and i like it. yours look good but look dull due to not having the glossifier (regular clear coat won't work)??? i was gonna just use the vht stuff but i wanted to be able to remove it. and you can use normal clear coat but it makes it very hard to remove Is the a DDMracing sticker? yes it is. do you have a baja?

EJ25subie05 Posted November 5, 2012 Share Posted November 5, 2012 "i was gonna just use the vht stuff but i wanted to be able to remove it. and you can use normal clear coat but it makes it very hard to remove" the VHT comes off with some acetone and a little but of rubbing. i had to take mine completely off because something messed it up the first time. ive had my tails like this for a few months now and its not fading any yet.

Pricci09 Posted November 5, 2012 Share Posted November 5, 2012 You can buy many different shades of tint film on ebay for less then $15, removable and looks better imo Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I didn't know that. This would still be easier to remove though You can buy many different shades of tint film on ebay for less then $15, removable and looks better imo Sure but have you ever seen tinted wagon tails using a film?

DocHolladay23 Posted November 5, 2012 Share Posted November 5, 2012 I have tried tinting wagon tails with film (Lamin-X), it sucks a giant bag of dicks and will always bubble. IMO wagon tails require spray tint. [sIGPIC][/sIGPIC] You want stickers? Hit me up here!!! You want a shirt? Hit me up here!!! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
