Just because I love it!

And I spent 3 hours cleaning it yesterday.
And I got new wheels and tires.
And I got my windows tinted.
And my 14 year old daughter wanted to make a cool video for me.

Dag, good editing skills for a 14 year old. I have a 14 yo daughter too. And truck looks sharp.

Bro, that's awesome...

 

[Sango]

Absolutely stunning!

Sampling, at the moment. First mistake was being directly overtop for a spray, amd it dropped some drops on the laptop. I know now for next time, but i will continue til done and ignore that lesson learned.

Any advice from anyone how to peel and reveal the bronco horse heads all by themselves?

Getting duller...base plastidip black...

I don't think you will be able to get the dip to "cut" at those emblems. It isn't enough of a delineation between surfaces.

Maybe give a light outline with an xacto knife will be just enough to peel the logo...

I am waiting for both to dry, then peel and redo.

I did like 2 or 3 layers of plastidip... then a layer of rustoleum leakseal (clear) th3n a final layer of plastidip again.

Then I got paranoid the leakseal wouldnt peel..especially from the macbook....and make it a mess. So far, because it was over a few layers of plastidip, looks like it will peel. I am able to easily peel away where it was thinnest a semi dry, but the heavier parts are still too gooey to peel.

So I will redo, and try again!

That is a fine looking Rig. Makes me wish I went black

Don't use regular paint. Get some Glossifier plasti dip. You could get some weird chemical reactions between the two paints, plus the regular spray paint won't peel off.

not sure why and it might JUST be me, but we've owned black rams BEFORE with Diamond Black Crystal Pearl paint BUT the 2019's just look soooo black to me... We couldn't decide between black & chrome or black on black soooooo...lol

Question....the piece between the hood and grill, which is usually chrome, you have it wrapped or plastidipped?

 

[RiverRacerX]

Plastidip black pearl

Still love it!

Yeah Im liking my grill. I never glossed it, and I am cool with that. I dont think it is even noticable that I didnt.

I pressure washed today at a spray down. I was cautious, sure, but nothing happened.

I feel great knowing I can peel away to a fresh unchipped grill anytime I want.
