I think it looks good, i personally like the matte finish, but for people who want gloss, i wonder how their gloss product would help the turnout

I tried the stuff out on my TL to get a feel for it before i do my 240’s wheels.

From my experience start with very light coats and your last final coat load it on thick so its smooth and not so textured/orange peel. This stuff hardly runs at all, awesome stuff so glad i came across this thread.

OP did just the one can do your fender?

I was thinking painting my leased DD rims with these. I will be taking vote on what color I should go for… options are gloss white or GT3 RS like neon Orange, neon Yellow, Neon Green, or a neon Pink. car is white. After vote I will be ordering paint and give it a try and post long term reviews as well.

I heard you can spray on the plastidip thick, then paint over with better spray paint or actual car paint and still peel off since the plastidip is the base.

Would give more colour options that way.
