Plasti Dip Vancouver?
Hi guys! Anyone know where to get plasti dip in vancouver, bc? I've searched around the internet but they're all extremely expensive. It's like 20 bucks per 11oz can compared to the US website (they dont ship internationally) which sells for 8 bucks per can. Thanks guys!

I think OP's main issue is the price. Some American users on this forum claim they get Plastidip for like $7 a can. Canadian Home Depots (and other stores here) sell them for around $20 a can.
If any Canadians here know how we can get cheap cans, please let me know as well! |

I picked up a can at home hardware (hastings and macdonald st) , though it is quite expensive $21.99. I will make sure I pick up an extra can, next time I'm in the states. Would Home Depot in the states carry this product?

I tried to plastidip the front of the bumper like in the picture:
http://i1152.photobucket.com/albums/...E28D81630D.jpg It didn't turn out as I expected.. I realized where I taped it up that from far away you could still see the bottom is argento, so i ripped it off. I'll probably re-do on a better day. |
