    Is that with regular black derp or the smoke derp? And did you mask off your brake light at all? I've been wanting to tint my tails and want to see what it would look like before I do it.

    You forgot to do your third brake light :cool:

    the colors blend a bit so it will affect the final color, practice on a piece of wood first.
    I have painted over the plastidip, then removed it with no issues.
    The big thing is to be careful and avoid overspray. If you are going
    to paint over plastidip you need to do extra layers of dip to make it
    thicker.

    Its just the regular, I taped off the circle and hit the light with 3 light coats, the another after removing the tape. Very pleased with how it turned out.

    I used to have the 3rd tinted wanted to switch it up.

    I decided to give the derp a try. I have a 2011 Porsche Spyder that has small ducts on the rear deck lid that the convertible top connects to. It is in all white but I wanted to contrast with some black as the dominant color is white with a few areas in black and a little red. I had to do each one twice because the dip pulled off when I was removing tape. It was easy but you definitely have to be careful. I will probably derp some areas of the truck next.

    The area that I did is where the top connects to the rear decklid. This is the before shot.

    Quick question: Where can you find the plasti-derp SPRAY in retail stores? I've checked at a couple places here locally like my ACE hardware and Napa but all they have is the can version..
