Awesome! Glad it worked out for you. Plasti dip is easy to work with. Just start off very light. You will see you fender color for the first two or three coats. That's fine don't worry. After you have those initial coats you can go heavier. It took me just under three cans to do my fenders. If you mess up just let it dry peel it off and start over.

May even tape it off and spray the first coat, then start rotating.. and spray a coat every 30min or so...

As long as you do light coats it dries really quick. Let me know how it turns out.

So, when I spray this, just do light coats for every coat.. and do about 4 coats?
