I have yet to see a good plasti dip job.

Usually after a week~ or so it peels, Fades or just flakes off.


Do you have any actual experience with it??
The shit will last for years on a car and look like the day you did it.
Unless you're a moron and can't follow simple instructions..

Worst case, you tear it off after a while and redo it.

I havent actually used it myself, But know a lot of people who have.

Like i said, I've never seen it last.



I still stand by powder coating rims though, Plastidip anything you want.. But imo rims should be powdercoated.

exactly, you need to wash it and make sure the wax is off the paint. Once that is done, clean it again with some 409 or if you want to, you can buy actual product which is made for plasti dipping (no real need too)

Let it dry for couple hours and then apply 5+ coats.

I don't know anyone who powder coats so I can't do that to my rims.

For an emblem/etc it'd probably work fine.

I mostly see people do an entire bumper / side skirt / etc. And it just turns out terrible.

It's gotten quite popular, Do a quick google search near you.

Can usually get it done for 30-50~ per rim, Pretty much lasts a lifetime. Only way to fuck it up is to curb it, Its even gas/etc proof

I have a bunch of old cheap fans, 2 of them were loud af.
No way I can run 8 cheap fans and be quiet as it is now.
intake fans run at 800rpm and rad fans go from 800-1200rpm depending on heat.

These seem to cool better lol.
temps never break 50'c

32db computer off
34-36db computer idle
40-42db gaming
Most of the sound is from my hard drive crunching :cry:
When hardrive crunches, it jumps up 3-5db

You have a sound meter?


Yeah, I just now decided to measure it lol.
