Pull the Plasticrap, a light blast, an etching primer, and paint away

Plastidip loses its elasticity and can no longer be peeled off once you put a coat of hard paint on it, defeating its primary purpose.

I normally just lay a basecoat, then a few more never though about hitting it with primer...........well now I have a weekend project.

Be sure to use an “etching” primer, so you get some BITE

Im trying to find a cheaper alternative to color match bumpers. Have you any experience with plasti dip?

Nope ... It’s a cheap $5 rattle can of crap that you can peel off ... I’m sure it has a few useful purposes ... But I’d never use it ... You got a nice truck ? Then save your money and do it right ... You got a POS ? Then plasticrap it and be happy ... It’s your truck, and your wallet ... Just my opinion

You got a pretty good point. I think i found a primed front bumper for a few hundred and going to have my shop guy paint it. He just painted the whole driver side and did a real nice job. If i couldve afforded it at the time i wouldve got the model that i wanted with the bumpers and the dual exhaust and all that. Thanks for the input bra.
