I thin that looks weel tbh, definitely needs a set of nice alloys, lights masked and dropped down a bit. But other than that *Thumbs up*

#5: Re: Plastidip on a silver vectra Author: LiamGTi180, Location: OxfordPosted: Thu Jul 26, 2012 10:13 am ---- We've washed it once and was so easy. Instructions say ordinary car shampoo and towel dry. Can also use pressure washer apparently. I'm not brave enough to try yet

#7: Re: Plastidip on a silver vectra Author: LiamGTi180, Location: OxfordPosted: Thu Jul 26, 2012 10:19 am ---- I know we sprayed straight over the lights everything and it peels right of. Time will tell how durable it is tho. However people have used on wheels and lasted over a year with out chip so not bad. Cheapest way to do it

#13: Re: Plastidip on a silver vectra Author: Mrs_Howey, Location: WorthingPosted: Tue Sep 04, 2012 6:31 am ---- How do you get it off the paint work? or does it peel off like on the lights?
#14: Re: Plastidip on a silver vectra Author: DeadEyePaul, Location: Rugby,WarwickshirePosted: Tue Sep 04, 2012 6:42 am ---- It dries like a layer of clingfilm looking at the YouTube video of the guy peeling it off his windows and headlights
#15: Re: Plastidip on a silver vectra Author: Rich196, Posted: Tue Sep 04, 2012 8:37 am ---- Just peel it off like when your skin start peeling after being burnt. Used it on wheels holds well. Peeled it off after winter. Keeps the protected nicely and looks smart!
#16: Re: Plastidip on a silver vectra Author: marc206, Location: Bourne, LincsPosted: Tue Sep 04, 2012 12:38 pm ---- now to go rob a bank and peel it off at the safe house
#17: Re: Plastidip on a silver vectra Author: LiamGTi180, Location: OxfordPosted: Tue Sep 04, 2012 4:09 pm ---- Brilliant on wheels protects them for the winter. And the vectra is still holding up well. www.ukdip.co.uk is opening soon and you will be able to buy a whole kit for a 206 will be £250 for everything including spraygun and other materials. Send an email to get on the list
#18: Re: Plastidip on a silver vectra Author: RedHDI, Location: Northern IrelandPosted: Sat Sep 29, 2012 10:49 am ---- Some guys spray it on there front bumper if there going on a long journey for a car meet/show and peel it off when they get there. At least its better than having to wash off bugs and you also dont have to worry much about stone chips
#19: Re: Plastidip on a silver vectra Author: novatron1_2, Location: fifePosted: Sun Jan 06, 2013 4:10 pm ---- Could you use it as underseal? Apply it before each winter then peel it off in spring.
