So my buddy just got this clean zero rust lowered 95 Ranger 2.3/5spd to replace his 02 lowered ranger that was wrecked. Well that truck was in the process of being painted single stage flat black. We heard about using spray plasti-dip to paint emblems and bumpers and such so why not paint a whole truck? It peels right off without damaging the stock paint. Anyway, Im done rambling. Here's some pictures of the job. It came out amazing. The plasti-dip is self leveling too. Took about 10 cans.
Prepping.
First pass.
Starting to dry in spots.
5 hours later, completed project. Came out beautifully.
Here's the rear in the light. It came out so even.
To sum it up, we got a great flat black, durable, reverseable paint job that has the same sheen and look as single stage flat black. An 80 dollar or so paint job that looks like a 500 dollar job. It definately helps that we have experience painting cars. But these rattle cans of plasti-dip are amazing. Thoughts?
