It's shockingly effective yah? For a couple bucks, you can have it looking brand new.

yeah I didn't clay any of the dipped parts even if it didn't hurt the paint I don't think it would do anything since its a matt paint. from what I found when I clayed the car its really just deep cleaning the paint kinda like wet sanding just with very fine paper (clay) it had alot of fine scratches in the paint that I think were there before but after I went over it with the black wax it made a huge difference its much shinier and very very smooth like its made of glass.

interesting, i always thought of it as buffing off all the clear coat and resealing it with new wax. was wondering if it could be possible to get a nice wax sheen on top of the plastidip to let it flow better with the rest of the glossy paint, cause if so thatd be cool!

That's what Glossifier dip is for, I've never tried waxing the dip, maybe it could work. |

ok so the tires that are on the enkies were used when I got them and they are about shot so I will be switching back over to the 240sx rims till I can find so tires so I dipped the 240's as well kind of a throw back to when I was running the black factory caps. I may add a red pin stripe around the edge but I'm undecided about that right now, well on to the preview pic   |
