$174, a weekend, and a sore finger. Your accord looks $1000 better. Totally worth it.
There's a great tool I put on top of the cans that you could use a trigger. For a person who has used a lot of dip, it's a finger saver.
For a teenager car, that was amazing. An affordable paint job on a vehicle that needed some help. Earl Scheib would have been proud!
Who is Earl Scheib? May I ask?
Looks better than it did. Here's a tip, they sell a handle that attaches to spray cans that truly makes it easier to spray large quantities of rattle can paint.
I was going to recommend the same!!!! I feel so sorry for your finger your insane!!
Name of handle?
Great job! Great Dad! That’s how you teach your children A+
I wish I could go back 3 years and tell you about the"Aerosol Trigger handles" that you can put on the spray can so your finger doesn't hurt.... as much.
The car turned out FANTASTIC. I would have to add the cost of the mask to this job's cost and you don't want to buy a cheap Ali-Express or TEMU one 🤣
I like the AFFORD logo on the back... nice touch.
I did a similar thing on my "daily driver". Paint was sun faded bad so I painted it in summit racing primer black. I've having to constantly respray it until I decide what to do next. What I learned... just get a gallon of paint and a cheap sprayer and it will turn out better and cheaper than those crappy rattle cans!
I would personally go for gloss paint but that looks a lot better then it did.
It’s gonna drip like a bitch especially from a spray can
Nah this is a much cooler look. Everyone has that glossy look
I think that turned out pretty amazing! Great job! And for under $200-you can’t beat it!
I wasn’t expecting it to look so great. It looks fresh and clean in the matte white.
This was a fun experiment. You can buy a proper PlastiDip car kit (more paint plus DYC sprayer) for about $470 at dipyourcar.com but my goal here was to see how inexpensively we could paint this car and still have it look decent. If we decide to remove the PlastiDip from this car some day we'll post an update video.
Looks good
It looks unique and different. An antidote to the sameyness we see every day on the roads. More power to you man.
Just for future reference, when doing wheels, take them off the car. Jack it up and do 1 wheel at a time, so if you ever need to do your brakes or have a flat on the freeway, you are able to remove your wheel and lugs with hand tools. The plasti dip with get into the crevice and make it really hard to get off.
The all new Honda Afford. Looks amazing and the quality time with your kids was a added bonus I'm sure.
I have peeling door handles and a clear coat deprived hood on mine. May have to do this🤔
Great video. I'm sure Fonzie from Dip Your Car is having a stroke watching this. 🤣
My thoughts exactly 😂
He commented lmao
You guys did a great job. My nephew also drives the same car and indeed it runs forever. It has 180.000 miles on it and still runs fine. His car is a 2004, and the paint isn't that cracked up to be anymore. So thanks for this vid, it would be something duable for us.
This is like an episode of pimp my ride!!!!!! Well done sir!
Really glad you shared this, thank you! I have a 2007 Mazda 3 that sits most of the time and the paint got ruined from some hard water sprinklers. I was able to get it cleaned up, but it was bad enough that a lot of the clearcoat has started to come off and it just looks awful. I might have to make this a weekend project! Thanks again!
My heart knew this was in Utah the moment I started watching this video. Didn't even need to see the jazz sticker or church in the background to know 😂
Nice job !!! I’ve use Plasti Dip on my rims and to delete the chrome trim on my car but never Dip a whole car your video has inspired me to give it a try
Unreal transformation! The low cost makes it even more spectacular
And no, it doesn't look like trash. It USED TO look like trash.
Amazing job!!!
Came out real nice!!!
Thanks for the tips!!!
Fantastic car looks in the universe shape great job, most of all your honesty that alone speaks about your Integrity excellent job, keep it up.
At 6:48, for whatever reason was the beginning of “Shake it Off,” which would’ve been appropriate with the shaking of the cans 😂
For using just spray cans this isnt bad! Of course I'd still recommend when doing full cars to use the actual spray kit, but for a teens first car looks much better! Nice work!
Did that say afford or accord
Yeah! It's a Honda Afford!
Well, is it a Honda or a Ford!? Make up your mind.
It's a Honda Afford.
What are you, a Italian!?
It's an accord
you can afford
He said accord
i'm dying ☠️☠️☠️
Peep the emblem on the back
Nice job ! I would have used a trigger for the can, avoids the drips and helps with better even coat. Very affordable too. Look into it next time.
Great job DIY guy. Love the video and the car looked much better after!
Good improvement for the cost! That white paint job looks pretty decent for rattle cans. Bet your kids appreciate it.
Getto Painting Tip: Use both hands to spray 2 cans at once! hold them together side-by-side and offset your hand positions a bit as desired.
Pretty amazing how it turned out. Great job!👏
Nice work! That took a lot of patience to do and you did good. Thanks for the video.
I am impressed with how well that tuned out. Great video. I've seen people use a grip attachment on rattle cans before to make it easier. I wonder if that would work on Plasti Dip cans
It does
They sell some
This brings me so much joy!
Wow! That white really makes it look a lot better!
The body looks great. I would've left the original rims instead of the black.
What, you don't like the glorious, peeling look of 'plasti-dip special'?
It’s not that the rims look bad, it’s that the car needs larger tires.
Original rims better.
Great job! Looks way better than before.
It looks awesome! Great job!
Shouldn't of took you 20 or more spay can. The problem was that you was spraying way to close and not allowing the paint to have a more wider spread
nice transformation :) well done
Looks awesome I been debating doing this for 2 months you jus encouraged me to do it I jus dont have a garage
Sweet! Great job!!
Pretty dang good job..looks awesome 👍👍👍👍
Man this came out awesome 😎
Great and beautiful work
Good job sir
tip to prevent sore finger: you can 3d-print a type of lever or trigger for spraypaint-can.
Looking nice!! 👍🏻
Not bad at all for a rattle can, looks clean now!
Nice job
That came out really nice, car looks new, at least from a distance, and 1000% better than the wreck you started with.
Great job!! I did my emblems and chrome
Some good ole window tint and it’s good to go👍🏾👍🏾 well done
Amazing job! I'm going to do this for my van.
That thing looks amazing
Looks great!
Wow! Looks like the car is a hot rod white. The wheels came out nice and you were able to do all of them without any overspray on the white. I woulda tried keeping the lug nuts chrome or paint them black later if you didn’t like the way they looked.👍👍👍
That’s looks awesome‼️‼️👌🏽💯
Looks good to me when the wheels were silver they looked better.
Came out cool, looks much better
I’m impressed
Great job came out pretty damn good
7:25 Just noticed it said Afford lol
The F is for Forest 😂❤
Had to have a bit of fun with it.
That looks amazing! Now I want to do my car
Awesome!!
Awesome!
Swell , I’m sold …………. can’t beat that for the price , again thank you .
Next time use a spray can trigger. It saves your hands.
Looks great
Came out great
That was brilliant, really enjoyed it :-)
Great job!
Looks way better good job
Looks good I didn't think I would need that many cans
I had a 2001 Honda that was approaching 300k miles. It was still running great, but an accident forced me to find a different car.
Me too! I have one with 200k. Do you think it would look decent plasti dipped or factory color?
@@brisatrujillo7228 If I still had it, I probably wouldn't plastidip it unless it had multiple colored doors or panels. That or it looked awful for some other reason.
Very nice end look for self made project how does the dip hold up the high presure washing ? Im curious to know since i have few ideas for my car too
Nice, I'm tempted to do one of my cars in plastidip.... maybe the 928s :D
I love this. Don't know what to think, but I love it.
Forest, a 2005 Honda AFFORD.. Priceless! Looks good too!
Great effort and great job. Throwing the paint on is just the last stage in this colossal job. If you came to the point of having the whole body ready for paint, having the rubber seals, handles and other stuff off your way is not so much more jib and it might make a huge difference in your final product, getting practically profissional, because the real hard stuff is straighting, puttying and sanding. Paint job as manouvering the paint gun is just wonderful sensation. You should try it. Congratulations
Amazing job.
Awesome looks great love Honda
I would highly recommend getting the handle trigger that clips to the can. Saves your finger!
Nice job👍🏾
Great job
Def looks better, they make a nice cheap spray can trigger too. Can help a lot with finger fatigue. But clean that tip often.
Love it
You can get an aerosol handle that makes spraying less painful.
Finger is fine for one can, but an aerosol trigger is better 👍
Cool job
I've considered the same sort of thing for our 2nd car that is showing signs of wear on the finish. It's hard to imagine you wouldn't have known up front to use a spray can trigger handle. They're only about $5 and so much easier on the hand than gripping the can and pushing the nozzle with your fingers.
It amazes me it turned out so good with just spray cans
It certainly improved it
I really like the way you teach me how exactly paint a car by spray Cans. But i have a question which i need your own answer.
Will this spray Cans exist long or it will erase by the sunlight???????
Really nice
That came out pretty good. Im really thinking of doing this with my car now
It looks like a good job. Personally, I would have sanded it down to the bare metal and given it a coat of under-paint / prep paint to allow the Plasti Dip to stick better.
Though, talking about safety and filtered mask only to forget about that when doing the rims...
Great Job. you are a good fixer upper. Your next fixer upper that need to do and video tape as well and obviously get it fix is that you go to the middle east and assemble some peaceful solutions for them fast and lasting. I am sure you are able. Love the way the car looks.
Looks great. I did like it better with the silver wheels though.
Can u share an update, I've been thinking on doing that bit i want to know how well it last and stay
Great video
I like it. I'm all about diy and inexpensive.
Looks good👍 gonna have to hire you to do my old 98 ford escort lol😁
My 03 accord has metallic blue paint and I want to plasti dip it should I go with blue or white
This looks awesome I will be doing the same !
