Plastidip it first… on OG paint, that just sounds like the right thing to do… Unless like you said in the original post, you want something done.

…sounds like a girl that wants a tattoo… “IDC just give me symbols on my foot.”

plastidip is…an idea.

im leaning towards gloss now though which kind of rules it out. vinyl just gives you a smoother nicer finish and will hold up to the elements a little more plastidip is on my kidney grills, it has held up through winters, but its too soft…and its a LOT different than doing a giant smooth roof

With the PD glossifier and the new sprayer a gloss smooth finish is easy to achieve. Just a fyi

Id stay away from plastidip. The po of my bike painted the whole bike with Pd. Doesn’t look bad but Sucks up dirt like a vacuum.

My only advice is to spray, pull, stick, and squeegee in “Small” sections (roughly 8" x 10") at a time to make sure it is nice and flat. Don’t pull the backing and try to stick it at once (I’m sure you are smarter than that but I don’t know if you have done any vinyl work before).

Quick write up I found: [http://www.ehow.com/how\_5155154\_apply-car-vinyl.html](http://www.ehow.com/how_5155154_apply-car-vinyl.html)
