Y'all riding dirty now! Great video.

[@nulife4uorg]

How do u clean plastidip wheels like that after?…..does the paint ever chip? And if so, what do u do?….thx!

[@boseman8372]

What color are the rims in the last picture of the video? It looks different than what you showed spraying earlier on. I like it better than the darker black. Also, can you use tire dressing with out hurting the plastic dip?

[@ZIAKHANSWAT1985]

Amazing

[@jgsautodetailing1568]

Thanks for watching!

[@Big_Geedot]

Semper FI brother 💪🏿 2014-2018

[@lucifermcdough299]

I’ve got the same car, do you think it would be possible to just spray the chrome parts (gunmetal gray) and leave/peel the black parts? Thanks

[@brandon-kg2vd]

Thank you for your service

[@joelreyes9243]

Did the color fade?

[@shimoworx1117]

How do you clean the wheels now so as not to remove or dull the finish? Exampme, chemicals and brushes.

[@jgsautodetailing1568]

Hey thanks for watching! There are actually a multitude of cleaners you can use on plasti-dip that won’t dull the finish. I recommend any cleaner that is closer to the pH “neutral” category. Diluted Adam’s wheel and tire cleaner is one of my favorites for plasti dip. I’ll go over some good options in a future video! Also, any regular soft bristled brush is good to use on plasti dipped surfaces 👍

[@spiritseeker1932]

How long till they look dull? Good vid 👍🏼

[@slighce]

It’s basically permanent until you are ready to change them

[@jgsautodetailing1568]

It really depends if you regularly clean your plasti dipped wheels or just let them go. I’ve had plasti dip look great for several years before starting to look dull.

[@odronnell]

So if you need to take the wheel off, will the lug nut removal open up the surface to peeling?

[@jgsautodetailing1568]

Hey Drone, yes if you have to take the wheel off the plasti dip can peel with this method.

[@insertnamehere4419]

use a non-marring lug nut socket, not a tire iron.

[@dcleadmin]

😎😎😎❄

[@ishconsult]

How does this process hold up in cold/snow? Thanks

[@slighce]

It pretty much is permanent

[@jgsautodetailing1568]

It holds up great in the cold and snow! I had plasti dipped wheels on my car when I went to college in ND and they held up without any problems.

[@muratarslan741]

How many plasti dip we need to use for four jants ?

[@jgsautodetailing1568]

I always try to use 4 cans to ensure enough coats are on the wheels so when I go to peel it off, it comes off much easier.

[@insertnamehere4419]

dafuq is a jant?

[@soundsofthegreat8288]

I came into a problem with the paint running off the rim like a lot of running as soon as I sprayed it just ran off the rim

[@jgsautodetailing1568]

I’ve ran into this problem before. To help decrease the chance of the plasti dip running make sure to do light coats and keep the can moving when you spray to help reduce the chance of too much product building up on a particular spot.

[@dajam9035]

I think I saw someone with black plasti dip rims. The paint was peeling off.

[@jgsautodetailing1568]

Plasti dip can peel if applied improperly or if there are not enough coats. It’s actually super durable when applied in multiple coats!

[@dajam9035]

@@jgsautodetailing1568 Yeah that probably what was going on. You could see the actual paint behind the peels.

[@insertnamehere4419]

cool story.

[@kdamore01]

really should mask off the body paint around the wheel well

[@jgsautodetailing1568]

Ideally yes. But I’ve done this method numerous times without any overspray problems.

[@Quest4Unknown]

That wheel looked dope mostly black with machined chrome.. why would you change that

[@jgsautodetailing1568]

We are going for a blacked out look on the wheels. Thanks for watching!

[@supracivic100]

How many cans did you used?

[@JoshuaCarVlogs]

RAHHHHHHHHHH

[@johnkopp1486]

Step 1: remove tire... Unless it's a diy video, than just leave it on 😅

[@jgsautodetailing1568]

Haha! You can do the same job and save time!

[@MrJaminx2]

Looked better factory. But good video.

No, that is just your opinion

Why not just take the wheels off, it’s not hard!
