    I had to look up the Kryptec camo, I really like it! Spruce Mica, nice color. I'm partial to greens, had a Jag painted it green, it turned into a giant headache, sent it sailing.

    Nah, no sprayer, just the aerosol can the Plasti-Dip comes in. Yea it's pretty forgiving. Thing is, it doesn't shine like paint, and doesn't quite get as smooth as a true vehicle paint. But it's the roof of my truck, so I don't really care bc I'm kinda short and can't really see it. Haha!

    You did a nice job, makes me want to try it, after watching some videos on vinyl wrap, paint seems easier:)
