    Thanks man. Maybe scuffing/sanding would be a good idea for better adhesion after all.

    RIP to my 08 Prerunner DC
    Has anyone tried to pull it off the emblems. I wanna do mine, but I am not sure about how it will look. So I might end up pulling it off the emblems and I wanna make sure it won't hurt them.

    ^^^Tacomagirl09:
    thanks for the pic, the grille goes great with your black mirrors! Hard to tell in pic but does the clear go on matte or shiny? Does it have any texture to it? Looking to clear my stone guards, used krylon fusion in past but want something that stands up better to rock chips...

    I haven't posted in a while, or much at all... I browse quite a bit though. I did go get some plastidip and did my wheels and chrome grill surround.

    Went from
    afgkkj067_bf93c353d4afd5110e4fbb769a09e73efa3daaa8.jpg


    To this
    DSCN7086_a9f8df1994f599550aacef7d4a1ce2dbed4216a4.jpg









    I think I'm eventually going to paint do the bull bar as well and then all my badges and center caps on my wheels in a metallic blue.
