Remove the masking tape right away after the last coat is applied. Waiting 2 or 3 minutes is too long.

There were many reasons for the change of the site software, the biggest was security. The age of the old software also meant no server updates for certain programs. There are many benefits to the new software, one of the biggest is the mobile functionality. Ill fix up some stuff in the coming days, we'll also try to get some of the old addons back or the data imported back into the site like the garage. To create a thread or to reply with a post is basically the same as it was in the prior software. The default style of the site is light colored, but i temporarily added a darker colored style, to change you can find a link at the bottom of the site.

Yeah or the other option is to use a razor blade and cut at the seems. I also did the front brushed chrome pieces on the frunk and was a pain.
Also Lowes sells Plasti-dip in the tool section (not the paint area) and it is $5.49 a can. Ask an associate as they sell a ton of it but may only stock the flat black.

I've used plasti-dip on my Camaro for years both inside and out. Even plastidipped my wheels last year. Stuff is well nye indestructable when applied correctly. For videos and tips, go to dipyourcar.com I'm not a paid spokesman for DYC, just a long time customer.

Have used the dip on different parts of the spyder and love it except for the areas that get scuffed by my feet but easy to repair.
Next project I'm going to do is the windshield frame and get rid of the ugly aluminum look. Also plan on painting those two little pieces of windshield that get extremely filthy but are a PIA to clean. Just have to figure a way to mask them off and keep inside the lines.

My brother used some on his chrome wheels on his previous bike without any problems at all. Came out nice. Seriously considering doing the wheels on my Bonneville. I've used it myself on chrome mirrors and they came out looking really good. (NOT a fan of chrome) Multiple light coats are MUCH better than a think coat.
