    Alright, I removed my dual color emblem with plasti-dip on it. What is the easiest way to remove the old plasti-dip to start over? I have watched youtube, but I am not finding any videos that show emblems being stripped.

    WD-40? I saw a couple videos, they used Goo Gone on it.

    Goo gone would probably work better. I've use Wd-40 on areas of my hood where the plasti-dip refused to peel off.

    One way is to lay on a couple more layers of the Plasti-Dip, then peel it off once it's cured. Acetone works well also.

    Celebrated 200 miles on the new rig with a wash, clay, and wax. I was surprised at how many contaminants the clay pulled off after such a short time.

    It wasnt paint...smh. check out the detail section, a detailer on there recommends it due to particles accumulates during shipping and when it sits on the lot. Either way, it looks damn fine now.

    I had it fabricated locally after seeing another one like it on here. The original fella parted out his truck but I missed buying it. So I had one built. I'm really happy with it so far!

    I was joking, because a common complaint I've seen on here is that the paint on our trucks is crap. And after scratching it with a wet microfiber cloth I tend to agree
