    The beauty of these, is if you get a scratch or peeling, you can paint right over it and it's seamless. Just keep adding coats!

    That’s what I used for the black on my bumper and badging and the grill. Never have had an issue yet. The rustoleum brand kind sucks

    I too plasti-dipped my rear bumper black, as well as my hub caps. Also did my centre console around in the HU in Camo colour, and all has been great. Only time I tried the Rustoleum brand, was for rusty rims. seemed to do the job for a few years..

    As Michael from The Office would say, "why are you the way that you are??" lmao don't call me out on my poor choice dude not cool haha.. as I was putting it together I knew it was gonna fade to pink (using the baby wrench, I could see the stripping and discoloring inside). I will buy black backups. I mean #fuckcancer yeah but I selected red for a reason!

    Haha sorry man! I just had to say it...I was bummed when mine finally faded. The red and quicksand is the best combination in my opinion! :thumbsup:

    So parked next to this boom lift today at work and came back this !! The top of half door was opened back not locked properly and it swung back onto my hood.

    What touch paint do you guys recommend using?

    Not sure. I did purchase this exact touch up paint from my Toyota dealership though...so they are selling it as an exact match to the color. Honestly though I haven't tried it out yet so can't confirm my results.

    Anyone else not like how the chrome bezel/trim along the edge of the dash reflects on the inside of the windshield? This is especially an issue on the left side of the stearing wheel. Now painted matte black.

    Dupli-Color "Vinyl & Fabric Specialty Coating" Flat Black.
