Is that the number of roats it took you to get the rich finish you got their or did you apply more than what's needed for the look you have going on all for durability?
I only coated mine twice so did Brayden and theyr still holding up fine

How much is the cost of the supplies to do this? It's pretty cheap right?

Not bad at all! Sure helps for shaving costs although cans are cheap, savings on cans of plastidip can be allocated to cans of beer :D

Its always nice to have more money for the beer fund. :D
Especially after some time on the water hitting the waves, nothing like cooling down with a beer :D

Has anyone removed the plastic dip from their spark? Does it come off easily?

Plasti Dip is easy enough to remove, you'll want to watch video's on youtube showing how to remove it.

Not sure how often people here will be removing it and even reapplying some different color.
Nice! Looks great! I want to do it but I was just concerned with not having it come come clean if I don't like it and want to remove it.
I was also considering stenciling my registration on with plastidip
Anyone try Dupli-Color Custom Wrap?
A rattle-can spray on. Resists the elements but designed for easy peel off removal.

As you'll see here it's quite easy to remove:

Yes it is easy to remove as long as you follow the instructions when spraying the plasti dip on. If you dont have it thick enough or enough coast it will be harder to peel as it will not come off in larger sheets. I have used this stuff on 2 different vehicles and I found out the hard way the first time to make sure you have enough coats adn make them thick enough, I spent hours peeling small pieces that time. second time all came off in 1 big sheet because I did several even coats.

Correct. Reason why it helps to be a bit generous, tougher end result and easier to peel off :D

Just have to find out how many coats would be needed to achieve this for anyone looking for a rule of thumb to follow.
How do you guys get it with straight lines? remove the stencil while it is still wet?
i normally tape off sections and spray that with paint.

With plasti dip, once it dries, it doesnt peel away like tape would, it leaves messy edges or pulls away good parts as well
