Plastidip scratches just as well. I wouldn't do it.

Exactly. I did my grill and left mud on her for 24 hours and it's stained to hell. I'll be removing it this weekend.

Wish I'd have known that Plasti-Dip stains from mud. I'd have cleaned it off along time ago. Now I have to repaint them, grrr.

I don't even wash my Jeep really, so that's a bit of work that I don't feel like doing. Oh well, it looks good so maybe just get it bedlined.

That looks like the perfect place for a smaller smoker box to cook up food while on the long trips. May have to give it a go this weekend.
