    A lot of people are saying "why not just repaint the car". The thing is, the repaint itself probably cost more than the car itself in this case haha.

    • @beardedman8884
      @beardedman8884 6 ปีที่แล้ว +47

      yup, and the people saying " it costs the same as painting it yourself" don't realize how much easier it is to plastidip something than it is to paint it. no sanding, no being stuck with something permanent if and when you fuck it up.

    • @imaniwilliams816
      @imaniwilliams816 4 ปีที่แล้ว +19

      TheMidnightNarwhal Yes, of course that's how depreciation works, but why waste thousands of dollars trying to repaint a car that's probably worth 2 or 3 thousand when you can spend maybe a couple hundred and get the same result?

    • @rachaelb9164
      @rachaelb9164 4 ปีที่แล้ว +4

      Yeah, I bought an older Accord for $1800 and they wanted $2500 to paint it because Honda had shitty clear coat there for a while. My black car looks so much worse than the red one did lol.

    You could've just sanded it down with sandpaper before applying the vinyl for a much better result. Don't need a bodyshop to do that, you need two hands and the ability to use them.
    That being said, this is the best application and most sensible usage of car dip I've seen so far.

    • @marvelousyang
      @marvelousyang 6 ปีที่แล้ว +1

      Alexis Adame Nava best way for rust hole repairs is to make a new peice, weld, grind down , bondo, sand and rust protection. For papers you have everything from 120 - 240 before priming it. And after that 400 - 600 to remove potential sanding scratches. Halfyear late but hope it helps you. If you can’t weld get a steal net kinda and glasfiber bondo onto it and then do same process with sanding it down, bondo etc

    Every "Dip" spray video is shown with the doors/hood/truck closed or shut. So I've often wondered how odd does it look when you open the doors and you see the old color (red in this case) on the door jams and frame of the car? Would you guys ever be willing to show us what the transition (rollover?) from the Dip color to the original looks like?

      Door cards off, window trim off, manual window out, electric in - but open and covered with a Cream (Cif/Jif) Glass Cleaning product. Brown paper taped over everything Not being sprayed, an away you go !
      Bonnet up, engine bay covered underside of bonnet and insides of wings (fender)

      You might luv minty green over your car's Factory Red, but who the heck is gonna buy it "your" colour? Or without thinking it was in something More Serious than "A wee Bump in a pole", or even wonder whether it's Stolen ?
      Only ever paint A Car/Truck or whatever else ! if it's Rare, Newish or Really Expensive - and mostly that's all 'Vinyl Wrapping' now - and that's a lot better choice these days!!

      Im sure you are talking about just the exterior of the chipper to pretty it up a bit. This stuff is not exactly tough so it would get torn up pretty quick where you feed the wood, branches etc. Nothing wrong with making your stuff better to look at. Just some prep work like degreasing and sanding for good adhesion and you're good to go. Im not sure how long this stuff lasts but for a piece of equipment that might sit outside most of its life unless you keep it in a garage or barn, i think the sun will take a toll on it over time.

    For us Northerners, how does plastidip fare with very cold climates, road salt, and snow/ice???

    • @JoshSchmiedchen
      @JoshSchmiedchen 10 ปีที่แล้ว

      I would figure it would pit like regular paint over time with the salt and snow getting to it etc.

    •  10 ปีที่แล้ว +2

      Josh Schmiedchen Well, it stands up to pits really well as proven by people who have had iy on their cars since before it became a big thing till present.
      My concern is corrosive and extreme temperature ability, how it fares agaisnt it

    • @xabstractx
      @xabstractx 10 ปีที่แล้ว

      ***** I know a few people who have had their rims for over 2 winters now with plasti-dip on them and they're fine. If you're looking at dipping your car, do it somewhere warm. If you try dipping anything outside when it's 20° out, it'll turn out really bad

    •  10 ปีที่แล้ว

      xabstractx I figured as much :P I was planning on spraying this coming summer. I do have a climate controlled garage but it's heater isn't working :( so I have to wait.
      As for the wheels, aside from staying on the wheels, there was no fading, etc??

    • @xabstractx
      @xabstractx 10 ปีที่แล้ว +1

      No fading as far as I could tell. If there was any, it was minimal.
      The only major problem is curbs. One of them had to keep re-dipping his passenger side rims because he pulled up too close and rubbed the dip right off lol

  • @1Toffeey
    @1Toffeey 10 ปีที่แล้ว +1

    Now that I have watched several of your videos you make me think I can actually do this. My 2002 Beetle needs the dip, before it gets worse. I love the color I have...a color changing metalized Blue/Purple, and the clear cote is coming off much like this video shows. Matching is what I would try to do. Checking out the website. Thanks. And the Chameleon is amazing.

    • @Darkeklaw
      @Darkeklaw 5 ปีที่แล้ว

      Actually no. The Dip is applied over the original paint. New paint can't just be laid over old paint. Oh and the Paint shop would insist on fixing any rust spots on the car. The job could run anywhere between 2000 to 5000 dollars Especially since the paint was really bad on that car.

But good to finally see a video where it's not a brand new $100,000 car. Although my 08 M3 might be getting dipped now....just doesn't need a color change at the moment

      That would not even entail a customer charge - honest 10min to slap a file on it and smooth it out a little bit......and 8min of that is looking for the file.
      Just saying if I am the client of that car..... I am disappointed. That is the cars hood - not a rear fender well.
