    Couple of questions Paint/Plasti-Dip

    Guest-only advertisement. Register or Log In now!
    So My Wheels are plasti-dipped Black, I want to remove the the Plastidipp from the Rims and Duplicolor them. What is the best way to remove the Plastidipp? I had 2 new tires put on so it is starting to come off, (just peel it, Pressure washer?). Also has anyone painted the Plastic Valve Cover?

    just peel away, if its thick enough, it will just peel right off, if its just a thin coat, you may need some alternative methods. the pressure washer idea seems like it might work well

    and im of no help to you on the valve cover thing... im assuming u mean the valve cover covers, because those are just plastic, im sure you could paint them, just might want to use a higher temperature paint so it doesnt bubble

    Just peel it, it's going to be a pita if it didn't dry uniformly.

    sigh, plastidipped wheels. get a rough scrub pad and rub it off, it'll come off quick.
    Thanks for the EFF shack. -Dirty Mike and the Boyz
