Default Dipping your car...?

Okay, there is this stuff I just found on the internet and was wondering if anyone has used it or tried it or anything about <a href="http://www.dipyourcar.com">This</a> product. I am really contemplating on using it, but I am worried...

Quite a few people on here have used it. Mostly on rims it seems like but it's good for small applications too. I used it to black out the chevy emblem on my trunk lid. Peels right off when you get tired of it.

It will not stay looking nice and will come off during washes. Not worth it for full-car effects.

Yea it holds up to high pressure car washes but it does get very dull after a while. I would never do my whole car in it.

In order to remove plasti-dip people constantly say just power wash the car.
