Does Plasti Dip affect tire balance?

Does Plasti Dip affect tire balance?

No, applying plastidip (especially given that it spans the face of the wheel radially) should have a negligible affect on balance and absolutely no affect on alignment. So don’t worry about alignment or balance.

Does Plasti Dip fade?

…it turns out that plastidip fades quickly over time. I have to apply back-to-black every few weeks to keep my trim from looking faded and splotchy now. If plastidip will just fade in a few months, I might just keep on with what I’m doing.

Is Plasti Dip durable?

Considering this has been on 105 degree heat to 15 degree ice, we put up probably 5,000 miles on this car within the year (We don’t drive it all around, it’s just a side vehicle)…I’ll say the Plasti Dip is pretty cool stuff, super durable! I hope that answered a lot of your questions on this stuff… Yes, it’s durable. Yes, it peels off.

How durable is the anti-theft coating on the rim?

Yes, it’s durable. Yes, it peels off. Yes, you could spray it with the lug nuts on and then take the lug nuts off later and not have a problem. You know if you want, you can take the whole rim off, clean the back sides, spray all of it.

Is Plasti Dip hard to peel off the rim?

And yes, it may be harder to peel off on the inner side of the rim where it’s kind of more like an overspray. But we’ll see how that comes out right now. If anything, I’ll just repaint it. No big deal. As far as the lug nuts, I snapped the lug nuts off once to take the tire off and it didn’t peel the Plasti Dip within the lug nut area.

How many coats of Plasti Dip did it take to cover?

We gave it a good 3-4 coats, covered it beautifully as you can see. When I sprayed the Plasti Dip on, I didn’t take off the lug nuts, the rim…all I did was covered the rear disc brake with a plastic bag and you know people gave me heat…
