Ive watched highschool kids with little to no paint experience dip a car and have it look great. As long as you dont dump the dip on and make it all runny it dries pretty flat most of the time.

Even I have used the cans, I was going to dip my hood and stickerbomb it. Well all the stickers came off but the black dried pretty even. If I didnt use dip clearcoat the stickers probably woulda stuck!
