Default Plastidip???

Has anyone plastidipped the inside of their Jeep? Has it held up to the abuse is people getting in and out? Do you have pics of the wear? Trying to decide what to use and wondered if this will hold up since people out it everywhere from grills to rims.


Where is the cheapest place to buy it?

What exactly are you planning to plastidip on the inside? I did my front grille in gunmetal gray and it held up very well. I imagine most interior components other than seats and handles get very little physical abuse.

I got mine from Home Depot online, I bought a box of 6 cans and it was the best price per can I found at the time.

I quit using the stuff. It peels and starts looking cruddy after a short while. The only positive is it peels after a short time and you can change your mind and finish peeling it off.

I have done the trim pieces around the vents but like the previous comments it begins to flake off very easily. It would look good if you primed it before hand but that defeats the purpose of the Plastidip. As for my wheels. Has been on for over a year and no peeling whatsoever and through multiple car washes.
