ive recently sprayed my sports bar with black plasti dip and thought i'd share it with anyone who's looking at spraying something with plasti dip.
i have 2012 D40 and to remove the sports bar i took off the tie down rails just to make it easier for myself to get to the nuts and bolts holding down the sports bar
i then removed the two plastic clamp things that are holding the 3 parts of the bar together and then just gave them a quick clean with a rag and water and let them to dry
for the first coat of plasti dip i sprayed it with about 50% coverage and let it to dry for half an hour
second coat i sprayed i covered it up 100% of the bar and then the 3rd and 4th coat
i bought two cans and just got 2 coats out of each can leaving half an hour to dry between coats. also make sure you shake the can for 1 -2 minutes before you use it and a quick shake every now and then whist using it
i bout the cans from autobahn and is the only place i know that sells it close to me. local bunnings and super cheap auto didnt have any.
im also thinking about buying 1 more can just to give it and extra coat or two just to make it that little bit thicker
cheers
1st coat
finished product/ last coats
