    Anyone know if it would work as a sort of door molding? I have an area on the lower door curve that gets dinged regularly by my wife's sedan. (she says I park too close even though I have to do the side shimmy to get out)

    I did one badge already (I only left on the rear Tacoma badge) will the rest of the can cover my bumper? Did you guys (and gal) remove the rear bumper first or dip right on it? Also have been thinking about doing my shifter knob because the leather is so torn up on it.

    Forever sideways and smiling :D
    Bullzi511 has pics in her gallery of how she painted her rear bumper.

    As for the shifter, I have no clue how well it would or wouldn't stick to the leather but either way I'd recommend actually dipping it in the PlastiDip. Home Depot had dipping cans right next to the spray cans.

    When dipping, remove from dip at a rate of 1in. per 5 seconds to prevent runs and tear-dropping.

    ive seen a few people do interior parts and its held up for them. if it ends up not working out you can just pull it off.

    I don't know if it is a good idea or a bad idea, but it certainly isn't an ideal idea.
