    So I plan on plasti dipping all my emblems on my tacoma, red. How much spray of plasti dip would i need to get and I've read that if you put a white base down first it makes the red pop out more. Should i do that or just put red straight on?

    I just put the red straight on in 3-4 layers and I think they came out great. River Crossing.jpg

    It doesn't take a whole lot to get them done up nice. Not sure but I picked mine up at a local hardware store. About the size of a standard spray paint can
