Re: Bedlined my wheels
How did everyone get the tape to stick? I pulled my rims off last weekend and couldn't get the damn tape to stick to save my life.

I used standard blue painter's tape. I think the trick is to run your fingernail over at least the edges to ensure it sticks properly. No issues when I did that.

I have had my rims bedlined for a few months now and they are holding up great! Only did two coats and the only part where it is a bit messed up is on the edges by the tire but it really isn't noticeable.
As far as clean up goes, they refuse to be as clean as when you first spray it on. Doesn't matter how much I attack them with a scrub bush they will always have a hint of dirt on them. For me personally it isn't bad enough to regret spraying them with bedliner. They still come out pretty clean and look great!

Yes I did spray the inside of the wheels, but only with one light coat. Just enough to turn them black so that you couldn't see that the inside of the rim was a different color.
