Looks like a good thing to do for the font bumper, and maybe the outside mirrors. Are you gonna be the guinea pig?

, not bad.

 

I'm going to try it on the new Lincoln. It is white/Pearl so maybe not too noticeable?

 

Like a high end, clear plastidip in its application and removal, looks pretty cool.

I would be interested to see if on an enthusiasts dark colored car that has a great finish to see how it affects everything...

Let us know, Max?

 

I said "..on the Lincoln..."

And meant it!

 

I wonder how many cans it would take to do all three of my cars from top (except the XF vert) to bottom.

Anyone tried this since the original post?

 

Well you certainly aren't in a hurry

Inquiring minds want to know LOL

 

This looks like it has real possibilities. I think I'll try this on my 2006 F150 STX 4x4 Flareside. Hood & front end takes a real beating. Using Dr. ColorChip now on front bumper & fascia to get rid of "road rash".

 

Just found this on the Vette forum...


Hello everyone,

I wanted to share my experience with the new spray on film.

I followed the instructions as best as I could. Making sure that I got that orange peel look so there was enough coverage but not too much. I tried to do the hood and front facia.

After allowing four hours of dry time, I found the coating to have settled but an orange peel look still remained with a dull finish. It may be that I was still too light but I felt I followed the pictures and video which I saw several times.

It may be ok for a daily driver but not what I expect for my corvette.

Now here's the real rub. It took me over 6 hours to get this sh-t off! I am so pissed off about it. Like I have nothing else better to do with a wife and two kids.

My .02, don't even think about trying this stuff until they get the formula right. Man, do I feel like an a-hole for being a first mover.

Anyway, hope this benefits some of you guys out there.



NOTE: THERE WAS ONE FOLLOW UP COMMENT.. OTHERS ARE STEERING CLEAR.. (NO PUN INTEDED)...



That is the exact opposite of my experience. I watch the video and followed the direction precisely. It dried perfectly and it not even noticeable on my. Vette I plan on using it on my Avalanche.
