Hey all,

This is the second time at my attempt to pdip the hood cowl on my 2012 JKU. The first time came out roughly the same as this photo so I peeled it and started over. I've read that spraying too far away from the part will leave the surface textured like the photo, except I was between 5 and 6 inches which is where I'm supposed to be.

My guess is that because I live in Arizona and even though I did this in a garage, the pdip is coagulating (for lack of a better word) before it hits the part. Can anybody confirm this? I painted my some other parts and did not have this textured problem, but I don't think it was quite as hot as it has been lately.

 

I cant see anything wrong with it. Looks good to me and i like that bit of texture look. Im dipping my grill next weekend, cant wait

 

I found that I had to shake the heck out of the can constantly to get the best finish.

Hope this helps

 

It shouldn't look textured like that. I did the pieces to the side of the cowl a couple of weeks ago and they have no texture at all, just flat black.

 

I didn't have to do that with my other parts, but I'll try that after peeling this thing again for the second time. Going to get up super early where it's only 80ish to paint again.

 

Has anyone plasti-dipped their stock jk bumper? I'm just tired of applying back to black restorer on my bumper.

 

No need to thread jack.
