A guy I work with is planning on doing this to his car. After he saw how it held up on his wheels, he's sold.
It's not for me, personally. It just doesn't go down smooth enough unless reduced and sprayed properly. In that case you might as just re-spray with a proper matte paint.
I guess I'm just old school...but the whole matte finish thing just screams PRIMER at me...those guys who could just never get their hot rod finished.
Couldn't agree more. What a waste of a perfectly good Audi finish...
I will say, it's an interesting process. If someone had an old beat up camaro or similar that had a real poor finish, this might be an intriguing option. But an Audi..?!?
I did plasti dip on my old wheels and they looked great when they were clean. You wouldnt have known that they werent powder coated if you didnt know about the plasti dip.
I've got my wheels plasti dipped and they look great, and it's totally reversable for when I sell the car. Personally I wouldn't want to do an entire car, but I can see why this is popular. Now anyone can pretty much paint their car in their driveway, and have pretty good results. I honestly think it's pretty cool.
