Default My first Plasti Dip experiment!
What do you guys think? I had some surface rust and a couple rock chips that had started to rust so I decided to invest $12 & give it a try. It is not perfect, but I am happy with how it turned out. Let me know if you think I should keep it or peel it.

Planning to do hinges next. I may do the wheels too. The previous owner painted them matte black and I think they are a little to flat. I think they would look a little better with a little more sheen.
