"make sure the first layer isnt too thick" * drenches wheel in Plasti dip *

This is probably one of the best videos I have come across on KZfaq. This kid films a D.I.Y. video like A BOSS. I have seen guys attempt D,I,Y. vids who are twice his age and with half the intelligence. I could almost swear that a toddler was holding the camera in each one, to boot. I wish that every question I have like this could be answered by this cat. I am an old dog still learnin' new tricks.

I've literally seen dozens of dipyourwheel videos, none of them touched on points that you did. By far the best Plasti dip tutorial I've seen. Thanks!

Nice job... I appreciate the demonstrations of all 4 techniques.

Great video, very in depth and informative. Best thing is you answered every question one could have.

genius! thanks for doing all four method! saved me a lot of time. SERIOUSLY!

Best video I have seen so far, takes the guess work out of which method to use. Thanks !

Well Done mate - thanks for going through all the different methods

You could bend the index cards down and tape to tire after you place them between the tire and rim. That way you can still get in to all the hard to get places (like the spokes).

Great video and very nice final look on the rims. This channel definitely deserves more views and subs. Thanks for the awesome tutorial and keep up the quality work!

Very nice job with the demonstrations on several ways of doing it.I am going to do my Rims when the weather warms up and i think i will go with the full tape job. I think laying them flat as you did ensures a more even coat more so than standing them up. So thanks for the time and effort you put into this it really was helpful.

MINT finish, makes me wanna redip mine. Didn't realise you could get such an amazing finish!

Awesome demonstration, really good job!

First time Dipper here. Glad I found your vid, very informative and never would have thought to put the Dip in hot water before using it. Thanks a lot bud.

Thanks! Having a comparison of all 4 methods really helped. Agreed with your preferences as well. I think I'll go with fully masking the tire. No point in working to remove the tape AND the plasti-dip from the tire IMO. :)

Great Video and with example and explanations

Very good job man nice video good camera skilz and all no BS talking trying to kill time like a LOT of people do. Your video is #1 out of all the DIP vids I have looked at!

I really liked your video. It was in depth and informative. One other thing I saw was armor - alling the tire (but make sure none is on the wheel, clean it with lacquer thinnner)..Then the plastidip is really easy to remove.

Thank you so much for doing this differential comparison. Of all the methods I think I prefer the partial mask. It allows you to get nice and tight with the rim and it still easy to remove. I'm going to spend $5 and buy a Lazy Susan bearing from Home Depot and use some 2x4 scrap to make a work surface. I think these elements will allow me to get the best results on the rims of my 2015 Jeep Wrangler. Glad I did my research.

Great video, answered a lot of questions. Thanks!

"Nice and... uh... rough." Lol

Good Job thank you for this advice ! Cheers from Paris 🇫🇷

Agree with others, it's a well structured video. I just dipped a set of Audi 9 spoke wheels. I spent a lot of time preparing the rims, I even used a plasti dip de-greaser but these wheels have very tiny recesses and the dip didn't take in these areas. I then paid special attention to these areas on the other 3 wheels and they came out fine. I would say to all, make sure you have totally de-greased the rims of old polish and other stuff, it makes a big difference. I also finished off the rims with a sealer. I am now interested to learn how they survive in the real world of dirt, cleaning and daily grind. I opted for the part taping method which worked fine. I also re-inserted the studs (poked them loosely in their holes) while spraying the wheels to ensure the dip didn't have a detrimental effect when tightening the wheels. Well done young man..

Good job, easy to follow, and clearly stated!

This has to be the most informative video I've watched! Thank you for composing this and other "How to" videos, you are very well spoken and conduct it in a professional manner. I'm a female and when I ask some males how to do things relating to cars they look at me like I'm an idiot, so thank god for people like you that post their knowledge on KZfaq. Keep up the good work!! I have read some comments below and I have taken their advise to use Vaseline.

great video. very thorough. thanks for uploading!

excellent Guide. good idea for the various options

Nice work! Well done.

Love the editing

nice tutorial mate......thanks

that was so satisfying to watch

Great video. Nice to see all the different ways. One thing I do before I clean the wheel is clean and armor-all the tire. This makes the tire give up the dip much more easily. Especially on a tire that is a few years old. They are more dry and tend to hang on to the dip much harder. Having done it with bare tire, and with the cards, I will always go to the cards. So much easier.

The index cards are the best!

Good job, good instructions !

Perfect video, thanks bro!

This video was exactly what I was looking for bro, thanks man! And for the last method you were talking about, you can always get a small towel or cloth and just rub the plastidip off lol

Nice work man ! With those cards it is better.

Good work. Good video. Well put together. Easy to follow. Shows several methods. Clear, concise, no rambling, no bs. Professional. Nice work. Any experience dipping chrome wheels? I have a set of 18's that are peeling some and I"m trying to avoid having the de-chromed and powedercoated due to cost. Thoughts?

Thanks for the good tutorial :) Probably gonna dip my O.Z Racing Polaris 17 inch wheels white soon :)

Those kicks are clean bro

Best Dipping Demo Vid On KZfaq!!!!! Good Work and Thank You

really nice! great ideea!

Excellent video 👍🏻

pretty good job on the rims

Great work! I was about to pay someone to do it but may give it a try. Appreciate the Info!

Nicely done ! Thanks !

Cheers cob I liked it. Will do with my new XR6 rims.

Is 2 can of plasti dip would enough to make 3 coats for 4 wheels? I have 17" rims enkei

just did this for my tesla and it looks great! I used the method with no tape cuz it had the least amount of risk. they look great and the excess wore off after 3 days or so.

cue cards work amazingly did mine over the weekend

Good job man.

you can put a gel base Tire shine on the tire before you dip and the dip won't stick to the tire it comes right off when your done and your tires look great too

thanks for this tutorial lil guy

Nice vid bro ima try this on my Vitz👍

good job buddy

nice video! worked perfectly for me!

Good work but if you use the card system (what I do) you can cut them to 1/3 of the size. You get protection, save on tape and still have a good angle to spray.

Great vid! Helped alot

*PLEASE READ* When dipping with the rims off the vehicle you need to place something in the lug wells! I used little plastic discs because the first time it did it without doing that, the dip twisted and loosened when I tightened the lug nuts!

Great video... disregard the critics.. anyone new at dipping like me will observe several techniques and pull the best from each one and develop their own. your instruction was clear/concise. thanks

Thanks for the video. Please make a video on how to remove the dip

nice and cool i will try this! to my old buddy! thanks broe..

Earned my subscription

I bought an extra set of OEM wheels for my O7 Silverado off of Craigslist for $75.00, and I've been thinking about doing this to them. Thank you for the video. :)

What I do when I dip my wheels with it still being on the car is just use a lot of tire shine. Makes it greasy and the dip comes off very easily. I've used the methods before too, easier when it's not on the car. Good video

I don't ever comment on videos but seriously kid this is probably one of the best videos on dipping wheels I've seen. I've dipped things before and was looking to do my Mazda 3 wheels this week and some of the tips you gave in here I didn't even know about. I know you said that how many coats you put on depends on preference but is their a number of coats you'd recommend for protecting the wheel, I don't want to do this and a month down the road have to peel and redo cause rocks and other things from the road are exposing the silver paint again.

Nice video...but never wait till the dip is dry to remove the tape. Like you say in the video if you remove it when its dry you run the risk of pulling up some of the dip from the rims. Always pull off the tape when your done your last coat before it dries.

thank you for showing me how to remove and replace center caps amazing.

way to heavy on first coat. just my opinion

you dont need to tape the tires just apply tire shine to the tires before you start dipping and any overspray easily wipes off and why would you tape up the tires if your dipping the rims in black

Great Video

Very informative, Well done my man... you've just made my life easier

Excellent video. Thank you for demonstrating the different options to you. What brand of dip did you use?

Nice Video!

I used to use a product called "spray-mask" that was very similar... Plasti-Dip is great because you can get it in a spray can and use it much the same way. For custom paint applications, try prepping the surface for paint, plasi-dip in any color, then draw and carefully cut away (exacto knife) the area you want to spray.. Think stencils, you can create your own, sky is the limit with this stuff and an airbrush.

u should keep the wheels up right coz then the can works the best

Great video. I haven't used any plasti dip, but I m thinking of doing it on my car rims. I've an alloy wheel, how many coats would you recommend should I go with, considering it's my first dipping job? If I don't like what I have done, is it easier to remove the dip? Which brand should I use and how many cans would I need for the 4 wheels, keeping in mind how many coats would I apply? Thanks

Normal rims + mate black = NICE ONES

you should update this video, using the tire dressing method.

Your Demo on this video is The best I've ever seen. GOOD JOB men..... I have one question. After you finished dipping the wheels. Shouldn't you have to go to Tires shop to re-balance the wheels? Please let me know.

for those that are doing this in cold weather make sure you put the can in warm water because it wont run as good out the nozzle

Good job, the only thing i would do different would be if your going to do the inside barrel of wheel do it first, that way there is no risk to the finished face of the wheel being most important. Good video thanks

good tip with the heat gun.

The last method is the easiest and fastest it just need to be done right. You had to spray the actually tire to get enough plasti on to make it peelable. Also applying Vaseline or tire size try really helps it peels

Great Video. Any tips on how you got them mounted on the car without chewing up the dip with the rim key?

nice! thank you!

Wear A Respirator, or at the very least a dust mask... I wouldn't think you'd want rubberized material in your lungs.

Nice video bro

for the last wheel with no tape and a thin strip, you don't have to try and peel it, just get a clean microfiber cloth and rub the dip off the tire, it will just crumble right off. adding dip release or armor all/tire shine is still the best way if you're not going to mask, but yeah clean microfiber and barely any elbow grease and it will just fall off the tires.

Very, very well made video:)

Dude you get yours to spray so clean! No matter what I do I ALWAYS get texture. Maybe I always get bad cans or something. I've tried every different method and texture always pops up.

If you are having problems will pulling the tape and the dip coming with it the trick is to spray your last coat and before it drys pull your tape or cards. Trial and error

I always spray my rims with a nice quality gloss clear spray paint after I am done laying down my plasti-dip but before I peel off the over spray. It keeps the dip on your rims that much longer. I done wheels last summer and the dip is still on the wheels with no peeling!

Good vid

Thank you for this great video, you have shown and learned me a lot!! How many Plasti Dip spray cans do I need to do all 4 rims, inside and out? Jake

Excellent video. All methods shown and let the viewers decide what is best for them.

Why do u put a thick first coat?

That first coat was pretty thick lmao . " light coat " my ass 😂

Great vid but you left out how to clean them when they're done? Will a pressure wash diy bay take that dip off?

Another tip. Put tyre shine on your tyre before you paint to get the overspray off. Use an abrasive sponge to wipe off the tyre shine and afterspray and you are done
