Default plasti dipped rockers

My rockers are all scratched and beat up from rocks and other stuff. So I decided to plasti dip them. Let me know what you think.

That plasti dip isn't gonna last very long the next time you hit a rock, I would've just used bedliner, easier to touch up with.

Anybody know if you can paint over plasti dip, since it only comes in a few colors and still have the ability to just peel it off.

It won't peel off without breaking because the paint isn't flexible

But is it a pain to get off then?

Yes. It'll break every centimeter and you will curse like a trucker.

I dipped my pinch seam a few years ago and it didn't have a tear in it. If this doesn't last that's my next move just bedline it. I just couldn't bring myself to bedline a 2012 jeep lol.
