Default Plasti-dip

Hey, I dipped my 2000 black Monte all matte black. It looks pretty wicked and I have gotten many compliments on it. Clean the car really well and do not rush through the painting. I just did it in a clean garage. Seemed to work fine besides the bugs landing in my wet paint haha!

Hey Airborne you going the Plasti-dip route could make for a sic looking Monte. How would this finish hold up in the high temperatures were having lately? Would be trick if you could incorporate 2 or more plasi-dip colors in your scheme, like a black car and red stripes or such.... don't even know if thats possible. Good luck jumper, I was 82nd 13F3P. Take care, best of luck on your endeavors.

West Coast Customs used multi-colored Line X (like plastidip) on a Camaro. You can see pics of it on either the WCC or Line X websites.
