- With a $174 budget, let's see if we can transform this junker car into something half decent using PlastiDip. After all - with a car like this, what have we got to lose?

$174, a weekend, and a sore finger. Your accord looks $1000 better. Totally worth it.
There's a great tool I put on top of the cans that you could use a trigger. For a person who has used a lot of dip, it's a finger saver.
For a teenager car, that was amazing. An affordable paint job on a vehicle that needed some help. Earl Scheib would have been proud!
Who is Earl Scheib? May I ask?
Great job! Great Dad! That’s how you teach your children A+
Looks better than it did. Here's a tip, they sell a handle that attaches to spray cans that truly makes it easier to spray large quantities of rattle can paint.
I was going to recommend the same!!!! I feel so sorry for your finger your insane!!
Name of handle?
I wish I could go back 3 years and tell you about the"Aerosol Trigger handles" that you can put on the spray can so your finger doesn't hurt.... as much.
The car turned out FANTASTIC. I would have to add the cost of the mask to this job's cost and you don't want to buy a cheap Ali-Express or TEMU one 🤣
I like the AFFORD logo on the back... nice touch.
I did a similar thing on my "daily driver". Paint was sun faded bad so I painted it in summit racing primer black. I've having to constantly respray it until I decide what to do next. What I learned... just get a gallon of paint and a cheap sprayer and it will turn out better and cheaper than those crappy rattle cans!
Great video. I'm sure Fonzie from Dip Your Car is having a stroke watching this. 🤣
My thoughts exactly 😂
He commented lmao
I would personally go for gloss paint but that looks a lot better then it did.
It’s gonna drip like a bitch especially from a spray can
Nah this is a much cooler look. Everyone has that glossy look
I think that turned out pretty amazing! Great job! And for under $200-you can’t beat it!
I wasn’t expecting it to look so great. It looks fresh and clean in the matte white.
The all new Honda Afford. Looks amazing and the quality time with your kids was a added bonus I'm sure.
I have peeling door handles and a clear coat deprived hood on mine. May have to do this🤔
This is like an episode of pimp my ride!!!!!! Well done sir!
My heart knew this was in Utah the moment I started watching this video. Didn't even need to see the jazz sticker or church in the background to know 😂
You guys did a great job. My nephew also drives the same car and indeed it runs forever. It has 180.000 miles on it and still runs fine. His car is a 2004, and the paint isn't that cracked up to be anymore. So thanks for this vid, it would be something duable for us.
Nice job !!! I’ve use Plasti Dip on my rims and to delete the chrome trim on my car but never Dip a whole car your video has inspired me to give it a try
Really glad you shared this, thank you! I have a 2007 Mazda 3 that sits most of the time and the paint got ruined from some hard water sprinklers. I was able to get it cleaned up, but it was bad enough that a lot of the clearcoat has started to come off and it just looks awful. I might have to make this a weekend project! Thanks again!
Unreal transformation! The low cost makes it even more spectacular
And no, it doesn't look like trash. It USED TO look like trash.
This was a fun experiment. You can buy a proper PlastiDip car kit (more paint plus DYC sprayer) for about $470 at dipyourcar.com but my goal here was to see how inexpensively we could paint this car and still have it look decent. If we decide to remove the PlastiDip from this car some day we'll post an update video.
Looks good
It looks unique and different. An antidote to the sameyness we see every day on the roads. More power to you man.
Good improvement for the cost! That white paint job looks pretty decent for rattle cans. Bet your kids appreciate it.
Nice job ! I would have used a trigger for the can, avoids the drips and helps with better even coat. Very affordable too. Look into it next time.
For using just spray cans this isnt bad! Of course I'd still recommend when doing full cars to use the actual spray kit, but for a teens first car looks much better! Nice work!
Did that say afford or accord
Yeah! It's a Honda Afford!
Well, is it a Honda or a Ford!? Make up your mind.
It's a Honda Afford.
What are you, a Italian!?
It's an accord
you can afford
He said accord
i'm dying ☠️☠️☠️
Peep the emblem on the back
Amazing job!!!
Came out real nice!!!
Thanks for the tips!!!
Fantastic car looks in the universe shape great job, most of all your honesty that alone speaks about your Integrity excellent job, keep it up.
Great job DIY guy. Love the video and the car looked much better after!
Just for future reference, when doing wheels, take them off the car. Jack it up and do 1 wheel at a time, so if you ever need to do your brakes or have a flat on the freeway, you are able to remove your wheel and lugs with hand tools. The plasti dip with get into the crevice and make it really hard to get off.
Pretty amazing how it turned out. Great job!👏
I am impressed with how well that tuned out. Great video. I've seen people use a grip attachment on rattle cans before to make it easier. I wonder if that would work on Plasti Dip cans
It does
They sell some
Wow! That white really makes it look a lot better!
Nice work! That took a lot of patience to do and you did good. Thanks for the video.
Not bad at all for a rattle can, looks clean now!
Nice job
Looks good to me when the wheels were silver they looked better.
Shouldn't of took you 20 or more spay can. The problem was that you was spraying way to close and not allowing the paint to have a more wider spread
The body looks great. I would've left the original rims instead of the black.
What, you don't like the glorious, peeling look of 'plasti-dip special'?
It’s not that the rims look bad, it’s that the car needs larger tires.
Original rims better.
Great job! Looks way better than before.
At 6:48, for whatever reason was the beginning of “Shake it Off,” which would’ve been appropriate with the shaking of the cans 😂
Looks awesome I been debating doing this for 2 months you jus encouraged me to do it I jus dont have a garage
nice transformation :) well done
That came out pretty good. Im really thinking of doing this with my car now
This brings me so much joy!
That came out really nice, car looks new, at least from a distance, and 1000% better than the wreck you started with.
It looks awesome! Great job!
Wow! Looks like the car is a hot rod white. The wheels came out nice and you were able to do all of them without any overspray on the white. I woulda tried keeping the lug nuts chrome or paint them black later if you didn’t like the way they looked.👍👍👍
Next time use a spray can trigger. It saves your hands.
7:25 Just noticed it said Afford lol
The F is for Forest 😂❤
Had to have a bit of fun with it.
Amazing job! I'm going to do this for my van.
I really like the way you teach me how exactly paint a car by spray Cans. But i have a question which i need your own answer.
Will this spray Cans exist long or it will erase by the sunlight???????
Very nice end look for self made project how does the dip hold up the high presure washing ? Im curious to know since i have few ideas for my car too
Pretty dang good job..looks awesome 👍👍👍👍
Great job!! I did my emblems and chrome
Man this came out awesome 😎
Great and beautiful work
Good job sir
Came out cool, looks much better
That looks amazing! Now I want to do my car
Looks good just swap the wheels over so they're all facing the same direction lol
Nice, I'm tempted to do one of my cars in plastidip.... maybe the 928s :D
It amazes me it turned out so good with just spray cans
That thing looks amazing
Great effort and great job. Throwing the paint on is just the last stage in this colossal job. If you came to the point of having the whole body ready for paint, having the rubber seals, handles and other stuff off your way is not so much more jib and it might make a huge difference in your final product, getting practically profissional, because the real hard stuff is straighting, puttying and sanding. Paint job as manouvering the paint gun is just wonderful sensation. You should try it. Congratulations
Some good ole window tint and it’s good to go👍🏾👍🏾 well done
I would highly recommend getting the handle trigger that clips to the can. Saves your finger!
Looks good I didn't think I would need that many cans
Sweet! Great job!!
Swell , I’m sold …………. can’t beat that for the price , again thank you .
Great job came out pretty damn good
Getto Painting Tip: Use both hands to spray 2 cans at once! hold them together side-by-side and offset your hand positions a bit as desired.
Looking nice!! 👍🏻
Looks way better good job
It looks a 100% better! Good job, But I was wondering how long does the plastic dip last on a vehicle? And is it safe to take it through a car wash or will it melt off you stuff are coming off during the car wash
Pretty decent, interesting ! I wonder if it could be clear coated to get a shine. Can you try a part of some kind and post it ? Also, I think it would look much better with the wheels matching the body color in white, or just like the silver they were. My 2 cents ! Thanks for all the step-by- step info, very helpful.
Forest, a 2005 Honda AFFORD.. Priceless! Looks good too!
Def looks better, they make a nice cheap spray can trigger too. Can help a lot with finger fatigue. But clean that tip often.
That was brilliant, really enjoyed it :-)
Looks great. I did like it better with the silver wheels though.
tip to prevent sore finger: you can 3d-print a type of lever or trigger for spraypaint-can.
That’s looks awesome‼️‼️👌🏽💯
Looks great!
I love this. Don't know what to think, but I love it.
The car turned out great ive seen that plasti dip but it sounded like it was easy to peel off by what ive seen here it didnt.. i have 1 question did u have to cut around the emblems and ho did u get itnoffnthe rubber tire..
Looks good👍 gonna have to hire you to do my old 98 ford escort lol😁
Great Job. you are a good fixer upper. Your next fixer upper that need to do and video tape as well and obviously get it fix is that you go to the middle east and assemble some peaceful solutions for them fast and lasting. I am sure you are able. Love the way the car looks.
I’m impressed
Nice job. I see you have a Jazz logo on the car, so greetings from Sandy, UT.
I like it. I'm all about diy and inexpensive.
My 03 accord has metallic blue paint and I want to plasti dip it should I go with blue or white
Came out great
Great job
This looks awesome I will be doing the same !
What spray cans would u recommend
Looks great
Great job!
I've considered the same sort of thing for our 2nd car that is showing signs of wear on the finish. It's hard to imagine you wouldn't have known up front to use a spray can trigger handle. They're only about $5 and so much easier on the hand than gripping the can and pushing the nozzle with your fingers.
For the fingers hurting, Amazon sells a spray paint handgun. It’s like a sprayer for professional use but you load a spray paint can.
White rustoleum turbo paint would’ve looked really good too. Taken less cans as well.
Looks way better then before
It certainly improved it
how do you think it would have turned out, had you used clear coat
Amazing job.
Cool job
Any update on how the paint held up?
