I might be picking some of this up soon to do a couple of parts gloss black (space between the "fangs" on the front bumper) to match my gloss black vinyl roof and compare how they look

In for pics! I might do my OEM wheels if it will be a nice gloss black. How does this stuff hold up to cleaning? I clean my car almost every other day in the summer

I guess I will let you know how it is when I get it and how it holds up. If it turns out to be pretty good I might redo my vinyl roof with that stuff. Because I have a very, very small crease in my vinyl just because we were learning how to do the vinyl at our roof wrapping party. So it's not a huge deal to me but if this auto-dip stuff looks exactly like vinyl and holds up great then it might be the replacement for anything vinyl oriented I would want to do to my car.

I dont think they recommend using their spray cans for doing bigger body sections like the roof.

Thats also why I was going to test it on something other than wheels.

Right from their site:

Autodip is a vinyl-based premium peelable synthetic paint developed specifically for automotive application. It allows you to customize and protect wheels, accessories and full bodies in a wide variety of colors and finishes. Autodip’s peelability, affordability, premium finish and Do-It-Yourself installation makes it the clear alternative to traditional powder coating, paint and vinyl wraps.

No, we do not recommend using Autodip Do-It-Yourself Aerosols to cover your hood, roof or your whole car as the surface is too large to evenly apply Autodip.

They do not recommend the aerosols because of even-ness. I bet you if you got the stuff in a gallon with a spray gun it would be good.

They just dont recommend the cans for large areas because they suspect people who are doing this are noobs at it.

Thanks for finding that for me

It's pretty good stuff so long as who ever is applying it does a good job. Poor application is the main problem people have.
