    Went through another car wash and had no peeling. I think I'm good now. Might need to touch-up that T that had a small corner coming off, but so far so good.


    Next I think I'm going to plasti-dip my tailgate handle, as the black is faded from all this Vegas sun. Just thinking all the opening closing may make it start to peel. I still have an entire can I can use.

    Derped the emblem. Think I'm going to do the badges and paint the calipers that color.

    While cleaning my truck I was using Mcguires hot shine tire spray on the tires and thought why not try it on the dip. I think it actually worked pretty well things are still wet and it's getting dark so I'll update tomorrow.

    Yea it looks pretty good this morning. Not sure how it will effect the longevity of the dip though.

    Planning on FINALLY derping my chrome rear bumper in a weekend or two. Should I remove the bumper, or just leave it on and take off the plastics?

    X3 when I did mine on my old truck I taped the plastic about a 1/4 inch off the edge and as the dip dried and shrunk a bit it peeled right off the plastic.
