What grade are you in? 3rd or 4th? Is English your 3rd language?

Just had to bust your balls a bit man! Do it and take some pics! Lets see how she turns out. Just seems like too many people are relying on their voice typing/texting these days. It's getting tougher and tougher to read some of these posts

Many great ideas occur when liquored up! Of course many accidents and deaths also occur after a few sips of the whikky!
Just keep us posted with some pics of your art project/experiment!

Plastidip is great, look up dipyourcar on youtube, they have lots of good videos on it.

I love it because if you have bad paint it is better, if you have good paint it protects it. Win/win either way.

I first saw this at SEMA a few years ago, they did up a Range Rover and PlastyDipped the whole thing in a dark green colour.. it looked awesome from about 15 feet away but when you got closer it looked like a 3 year old painted it with finger paint.

dont get me wrong this is a great product ad i have used it lots for both home and auto use. but its not meant for the large scale products.
i've used it for trim and bezels and things like that.

if you want a tough durable finish on your truck i would just use the roll on truckbox liner. drys harder then metal and super easy to clean and no worrys about scratches.
