The Headlight Rings Pop-Off

[dblackston]

I still like the white, it needs a couple more coats and some clear coat to really make it stand out more.

That was damn near a full can of white plasti dip and still looks dull. I know they sale a glossifier now for PD but I have yet to try it. Regular rattle can clear just gets soaked up and cant even tell no matter how many coats you do.

Plastidip is matte colors. It's going to be dull.

Looks good Dave.

Yea if your looking for a clean all blacked out no chrome look, it looks awesome..It would look sweet with a nice accent color..I may change them later but for now I like the black

 

[ThatTmoGuy]

im worried that if i tint the lenses and black out the rings they will disappear, if i do the red on the rims like planned it will tie them together and hopefully look really nice

I may need to apply another coat

Ya I know they are stickly matte with out the glossifier but by "dull" I guess im just referring to not a "bright" white. I dont feel like its white enough, it dont pop! like I thought it would lol

I'm no plasti- dip expert, but couldn't you spray a coat of standard gloss white spray paint over it to brighten it up. Seems like it worked well for Tmo.

it's already turning purple!

yup! gloss enamel spray, but let it cure for a long time 1 day was not enough even in 100 degree weather.

It's my camera on my phone plus the lighting. To see it in person its black.

i think instead of pink plastidip, i'll bedazzle my headlight rings. maybe get pulled over for impersonating a working girl.
