- A lot of you were disappointed with my last tutorial because I didn't explain too well and didn't show my end results. I got you in this video. Some people may have different ways to plasti tip their rims, I'm just showing you guys how I plasti dip my rims, and how I get the results I get. You can see all of my work on my instagram: / throwsomediponit
Thank you for watching!
Sucks people need to hate on everything, but I thought both your videos were really helpful and my wheels on my Camaro SS turned out great because of them. Thank you.
Kendrick Matthews glad they came out good man. I appreciate you!
THROWSOMEDIPONIT how many cans do you use per wheel? Asking for s “friend”
@@THROWSOMEDIPONIT how long to dry?
People hate on things typically because they hate themselves or their life
Sometimes I hate reading comments on videos on here on other social media because people always have to be so negative and can’t see the good side of things they just focus on the negative
Great tutorial. Glad you showed the peeling process.

Thanks for the video. How long should you wait between coats? What worked best for you. Gonna dip the steel rims and the badging on my 2nd gen crv to match the black bumper trim.
How many cans did all 4 wheels take?
Excellent detailed video. Exactly what I needed to see. Mine came out perfect!
Glad it helped!
For some reason I had more success with this rather than with those guys that put like 10 coats of super light paint. It seems like heavy coats have worked better for me regarding plasti dip
Yes!
When I heard musiqsoulchild it was an instant like🔥👍
🤟🏽
It was G Perico for m3...
Did you use all 5 or 6 cans? I bought 3 you think it’ll be enough
awesome kewl man the way you do your spraying, you didnt even bother to cover your fenders like i didnt see any oversprays outside of the intended area, considering your car is white, also that you didnt bother to use cards to go around the rim edge . . . am just waiting for the right day & will do mine too . . .
Appreciate the video bro. We got about the same car. I got the 2010 535i. About to dip mine tomorrow. Appreciate the info bro.
Any brand/product preference for plastidip?
How is the plastidip holding up against the heat and road abuse (pebbles, dust, ... )?
Muranaman the only reasons the plastidip should start to peel or wear off is because of the amount of time since it got plastidipped OR bc they were curbed. besides those, weathering or dust or any kind of stone/pebble should not damage or make it peel off. talking from experience
@@danielcortes1163 Thanks! After I made this comment, I bought some plastidip, and painted my rims. Aside from it losing the shine (became matte), mine still is covering the steelie rims just fine! No rust! The remainder of the can, I used to lavishly paint a cheap chinese bench we bought for $65 on Amazon. It would show brown rust spots in 2 weeks, but with the plastidip, I haven't seen any rust whatsoever in 1 year now!
@@danielcortes1163 can you go through a car wash
@@zells8303 it depends, I went through a drive thru car wash with a special wheel sprayer and it kind of messed mine up
@@DanMarinodolphins thank you
Just did this, turned out great. BUT I forgot to rotate my tires, and so when i just drove around, i went to look at them and they are like half done lol. definitely make sure you rotate your tires and get it good from all angles. did 4 coats, thought it was perfect. Guess not. Not your fault, im a dumbass. But shit looks clean
I live in buffalo NY which gets hit bad in winter so i will come back to this and post an update on how they held up in the snow
This is why you remove the wheel so you can actually see everything on the wheel.
how many cans did it take you to complete all 4 rims?
@@postmanvi did it hold up?
@@Everybodyawesome5 it’s now a week past Buffalo winter and I have a couple scratches here and there, I’ve gotten 2-3 car washes as well. Still looks fine, I think this summer I will be using actual gloss spray paint instead of the plasti dip. Only reason to use the plasti dip is so it’s not permanent. But I want it black forever so I don’t care. Overall this is a great way to get black rims that last
Dear friend....amazing job you did there......i'm thinking of following the same procedure instead of painting my wheels.....but i got a question and i'd appreciate if you answered it...does it cover scratches or they're obvious even after the application???and....is it only in black or there are more colours???????thanks!!!!👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍
Awesome stuff! How long does this take? and how long does it take to dry?
Do like 5 coats let dry like 10- 15 mins between coats
@@l.a.h837 my can says i have to let it dry for 4 hours between coats ? but 15 minutes is enough ?
@@ManpackedPOV you do a light dusting coat #1 and continue the more coats the better. as for drying the warmer the temp the faster it dries so if your in Florida summer 10 mins or so between coats sould be fine
It takes 24h to fully cure , 10 to 15 min in between coats is perfectly fine. And try to spray with long strokes not little short bursts like in his video creates bumpy texture and rough surface
Quick question do you ever have a problem with removing the tire or the lug nuts?
if you remove the tire, you'll need to touch the dip up. that's unavoidable unfortunately
You can remove this material later on down the road from the wheel if you wanted too? No issues after or anything ?
Yes! Check out my IG instagram.com/throwsomediponit
nice tutorial. would you share products used one by one...? thanks
Check me out on Instagram instagram.com/throwsomediponit.
Definitely getting a color...but let me tell you all... I used to plastidip all my wheels black before this company or before it was cool to every car I owned. B I G • T I P S • #1. Don’t be lazy...remove your wheels so you don’t have to do the silly brake covering thing & so that you don’t have any accidental spray onto your actual car paint! #2. Don’t worry about this extra kit...use a bunch of notecards from when you used to be in school or something and slip them in line all around your rim (protects the tires) #3. Put a tarp or something under your wheels or the car if you’re painting at your house, stuff will spray everywhere haha. #4. Use SEVERAL coats and wait for each to dry individually before trying another coat. That is all 👍🏻
how many cans do you use per wheel?
zachary kozlowski approx 1 can per rim. 4 cans total as well as the 1 can of glossifier.
This video was clutch just painted my mustang gt wheels looking great
I'm doing my '14 Vert right now! Waiting for the 2nd coat to dry.
What product was used? Link? Great video btw!
Its in the title... Plasti Dip
Thanks for the video I’m doing this in a few days wish me luck ❗️ u got great music taste too
The music is fucking horrendous
It takes just 1 can for a wheel ?
So you do t need plasti release spray to put on tires? It can be easily be peeled off tires without it?
Peels right off
frostxr chris fix spraypainted his wheels and used a gel tire shine, im guessing plasti will remove the dame way, just use a scrub of a sponge lmao
Bro nice job if I take 1 one wheel on the time to paint with plastip dip .how long time I need wait to put in back to of car ??
Can you get this done as an Auto Detailing place? If so, what are typical prices for 4 wheels?
Just try yourself might as well buy new wheels the price they will charge u
Did u remove the plastic when u moved the car to rotate ?
Nope. You just have to adjust the bags after you’re done moving the tires
is there a link to these products?
Thant looks fantastic...I want to do something similar on my jeep

Great video thanks Brody
No problem 👍
So I live in Canada, do you think snow and salt will affect the dip? Or should it last through winter ok?
Hard snow/ice might be rough but snow will be fine.
Do I have have to spray the rim/tire bc imma use white plasti dip and idk about the peel process, I can’t just leave white plasti dip on my tires

Want to do it to my benz. How much would this cost?
Could you mention the names of sprayer of black and gloss paint? Are there two paint sprayers for glossy finish?
Md Chy glossifier
Great tutorial. Do people recommend masking their Lug nuts and valve stem? (Will the plasti dip get ruined if you try to take off the wheel) thanks
MrPlasm0 thanks! You don’t have to mask your lug nuts. You can peel the dip off after if you don’t want those dipped. Valve stem definitely needs to be masked if you don’t have caps for it. Plasti dipped will most likely need to be touched up when you get tire changes, not when you just take the wheels off car.
Hi quick question, how long did it take you to do the whole process?
I just did it and its like 2-3 hours but worth it👍🏽
2 hrs!
How long do you let each coat dry before going in for another coat?
Gina Brown 25 minutes
@@Greedy22 For just one wheel or for all four
Hey man, great tutorial, I have a question on the Top Clear coat. Are you using plasti dip clear coat or a lacquer clear coat? If I use a lacquer clear coat, can I still remove the plasti dip?
the jeffster of awesomeness thanks brother. I’m using plasti dip glossifier. I’ve never used lacquer so I can’t give you my opinion on that.
the jeffster of awesomeness lacquer clear coat will give you better results on the looks but I wouldn't recommend it on Plastidip. This is because it hardens and it takes away the rubber properties of the dip preventing you from peeling it all off.
You will have to use a chemical like a paint thinner to remove it. Glosifier allows for you to completely peel it if you have enough thick coats. If it's hard you can spray some Goo Gone on the wheels and let it sit for about 20 minutes, spray them down with another layer of Goo Gone and let it sit for 5 minutes and it will come back up. I'm doing this project again because after 2 years one of my wheels is beginning to peel bad and Plastidip looks better starting over versus patching it up.
Yall talking about what about this what about that or being negative, I've used this product on both my Genesis and dodge viper... The cabs cost like 5 bucks! If it starts to peel and you did enough coats ffs peel it and do it again lol mines holding up strong on both vehicles for about a year now
1 can is like $20-$25 here in Canada. It’s bs.
whats the name of the can?
can I get links to where you bought the plastic dip?
Miguel B i bought 2 cans at menards to try it out, $5 a can, matte black,
If I paint my wheels with black plastip dip. 1 wheel on the time how long I need to wait to put it back in my car ??
Does it produce over spray on the car?
Or it it okay not to mask the car off?
How long should you wait before applying another coat
usually wait around 10 to 15 minutes i would say
Just rotate between tires. By the time the other three are done the first is ready for next coat.
I was gonna do this to my evo x, but when I watch tutorials they always leave the wheel on the car and I thought that you’d have to flip the wheel over to get the other side? Idk I’m learning but let me know
i mean you can if you want, but im OCD about things and honestly wouldnt care about what the inside of my rim looks like, no ones gonna see it unless you pull it off or it goes flying off on the road (jokes lol). so if you desire a 100% color matched rim, go for it! pop em off, but that might just be another step thats not totally necessary. all up to u
@@officialaustenmorpho3224I agree 100%. I don’t think it should matter if the inside is painted unless that’s what the person wants to do. Also I wouldn’t care about what the inside looks like because no one sees it unless the wheel is taken off but people always have to make that comment about how they think it should be done. He had a lot of trolls in the first one he did on the BMW, but I like how they came out in both videos..
How long do these stay on?
I didn’t go hard on mine like this but now if mine peels I’ll try method, thank you
Earned my subscription
which plastidip is it?/ glossy black?
How much do you normally charge customers for this?
Hey hit me on my instagram I can send you my pricing instagram.com/throwsomediponit
How long does it last?
2-3 years
They look good, but I always take the rims and tires completely off the car, lay them flat, and then spray them. It comes out so much smoother looking.
does the dip ware out or peel after a certain amount of time? how long does it last
lasts a while depending how well you put it on, if anything you can curb it bad
Ive seen it last years. Also armorall works great to bring the color back when it starts to fade. Or just peel it off and re spray.
Where did you find the plastic to cover the brakes?
TurboCamaroSS 5.3 Home Depot. Masking paper I️ think it’s what it’s called
THROWSOMEDIPONIT perfect thanks
The plastic? I seriously thought you were bullshitting... Use fucking. Grocery bags
glocks & glocks i used a menards bag lmao that thick ass plastic
dont u dare swere again @@thejunktruck2981
Looks great! One question, isn’t it easier to take the wheel off?
NO
Not easier but better results .
@@unclerogelio3636 why would it be better? Lol you still spraying the same area.... How can you get better than what he produced?
@@the_re_up for starters you can lay the wheel horizontally, therefor reducing the risk of any possible drips running down the faces of the wheel spokes. Also, you can move yourself around the wheel much easier if its off the car, as opposed to reversing the car etc. Its alot easier, and more time efficient to leave the wheel on and protect the brakes etc, But- Taking the wheel off takes more time, will have less possible missed spots, prevent facial drips, overall more of an even coating, and an all out better finish.
ive done it both with wheels on the car, and off the car on multiple vehicles. For a quick and easy DIY/couple of hour job, just spray on the car. For a better/more professional take on things, take the wheels off.
how does this hold up with carwashes?
Thanks for the video, I’m going to do my rims this weekend !
Thirsty bastard
😂
bruh
so dont use primer?
Hey how did you get the bmw logo out of the wheel after
Ryan Hookey he took the bmw cap off the wheel
How about you remove teh wheel?
Can't wait to do this to my whip. Sadly I only discovered plastic dip today haaha 🤦🏽♀️
What brand did you use?
How much time in between coats??
Silverfang 20 10-15 min
Great vid! super helpful
Is this paint water resistant?
great tutorial mate
How many cans will it take for all four rims?
4 cans
Does it leave a mark if you decide to rip it off from the rims after few years?
No
If done right, how long should it last?
I’ve had mine for about a year now still great I’m about to take it off soon and putting a new color in
Awesome thank you
How many cans?
RIP TO MY FOREARMS HOLY SHIT. HAD TO SWITCH ARMS AND FINGERS, I SUGGEST YOU GUYS GET A SPRAYPAINT ATTACHMENT
I'm wondering what type of brand dipping you use an how man can would I need to get 4 wheels done.
He said around 4 or so cans
Depends on how the rims are designed tbh cos I have sport bmw wheels and only needed 3
At a minute in he already got the dip on the car paint. Correct way my foot!!
Hey bro quick question I just plasti dipped my rims there 19s on a 300 did exactly what you did 4 coats of dip and 4 coats of glossifier waited 15 min in between each coat weather was perfect when I was finished I waited about an hour hand washed the car and drove to work which is about 5 min from my home I didn’t thoroughly clean the rims in the beginning like you did but I did half ass clean them it literally took 2 days for all plasti dip to start peeling off starting from the inside ? Was it that I didn’t get the angles good enough ? Was it that I didn’t thoroughly clean the rims good ? Did I wash the car too soon? Did I drive the car to soon? It came out amazing was so inexpensive but just didn’t work out for me. Only cost me 60.00 for everything. What are your thoughts? I don’t want to give up and I want to try again.
PENTASTAR3210 559 I would say the prep work is what messed them up. Cleaning and prep is the most important part to any paint work. Re do it, but this time clean every spec off the rims you see. Also. No car wash for a week just to be safe. Hope this helps!
@@THROWSOMEDIPONIT - DipYourCar.com products such as PreDip Spray cleaner AND Dip Release on tires up and onto their first tread pattern.
I half ass cleaned one rim and when I went to put it on it tore the whole thing off. Needless to say do it right the first time or do it alot more times, been over a year now and still looking great. I'd use alcohol to prep, or if you want to go even more insane acetone. Don't over do that though. Pressure wash, regular wash, not a problem. Not sure if the recommended dry use time is 4 hours or 8 hours after, but one of those is it. The can says it. Read the can. Double negative lol. But if you remove the wheel throw a ball of masking tape in the lugnut hole or you're going to hate life when you go to put them on.
Bro what is the paint name?
Plasti Dip! Check me out on Instagram instagram.com/throwsomediponit.
How long should you wait to dry
Mark Dominguez wait times vary. If it’s hot outside, by the time you get back to the rim after doing the other three rims, youll be able to dip your next coat. If it’s cooler, I would wait 15 minutes between coats.
And also when you remove your lug nuts the paint will peel.
I ran into this problem when I first plasti dipped my rims. Next time I plasti dip my rims I will make sure to leave the bolts untouched. The real problem occurs when you take it to a shop and they remove the tires. They are usually careless so yeah they may peel the surrounding areas.
not a big deal.
When u plasti dip take off lug nuts ? Or leave it on u r saying ?
@@marcelo8891 leave them on. the socket or wrench you're using will immediately start scratching off paint.
Do you have to have duct tape on the outer ring of the car? Some people use duct tape around the rim of the car. I wanted to do mines without it
Great video. But isnt the coats supposed to be lighter? Jw
Plastidip is not like spray paint, it is actually better to use heavy coats so it can create a uniform coat and be thick enough to peel. You can go light coats but you need like 8 or nine of them compared to 3-4 heavy coats, so 3 to 4 good coats is typically good for any application of plastidip.
Has anyone had experience with the gloss?
I've heard if you apply gloss to it, it causes the plastidip to loose it's elastic characteristic and flake when it starts to fall off and then you can't just peel it off you have to chip it all off if you want to do a new fresh job.
So true it makes it impossible to remove it messed up my rims!
NEVER had that problem. If you spray thick enough coats it doesn’t matter which top coat you use. Check out my IG instagram.com/throwsomediponit
Do you let the coats dry before the gloss or apply gloss while still wet?
What color black is that??
Black
Black Black
Should you sand the rim down a bit for her adhesion?
Can I put on the metalizer at a later date or do I have to put it on the same time I put the Plasti Dip on?
in my experience, it's best to do all the coats you want at the time of dipping the rims. if you do it at a later time, it might not adhere to the dip like when it's a fresh dip.
That first coat was not a light coat
DeadSkinMask32 yeah holy christ.
DeadSkinMask32 who gives a shit, make your own video and demonstrate what light is in your own opinion
Wow bro soooo sick black!!!
Please include info on the products you use👍🏽
lol... he used plastidip. the black one and the glossifier.
Is glossifier the same as clear coat?
Greg K it makes the dip shiny aswell as protect it, it is clear
Lol 50 percent first coat
If i will do my rims glossy should i get aresol black or black matte.
David King there’s just one black from plasti Dip just get the regular one
Where did you buy the spray
can yu still smell the paint with the mask on
Ricky the Rocket scientist is back.......This time he's going to finish dipping his wheel......Last time, he ran out of time because his probation curfew was 7pm.....2 years later, he's done his community service hours and probation.

First 20 seconds sprayed it all over the fender.
good vid man! thank you
I guess I just dont understand, you put a rag down to not get over spray in your driveway........but leave the car completely uncovered
if you've had experience with dipping on concrete, plasti dip is pretty tough to get off a driveway. but any overspray on a car can easily be wiped away.

Got some good beat music my man, you must got some black in you 🤣
how many time you warm plastidip bottles?
bladekler I want my own 3rd 123 tickets Ri to 06dtc6y
I was hoping now that you made a new video... you would have masked off the surrounding areas such as the bumper, fender/quarter panel, door, etc... PlastiDip is a pain in the ass when you spray outside. Even with mild breeze, you will wind up with "overspray" (little specks of paint that blew around) and then you gotta sit there with claybar and let it pull out all the bits of vinyl out of your car's paint...
Taking off the wheels would be a much better way to do this.
Not everyone has a jackstand.
