Does Plastidip stain?

Greetings from down under !!

I have a Toyota 86 GTS in Pegasus White (Or White Pearl/Satin i believe for the Scion FRS)

I was thinking about plastidipping the front bumper/lip, and was wondering if Matte Black Plastidip would stain the white paint? My car is polished if that makes a significant difference. I've sampled the plastidip on a chrome badge and there was no staining, however ive looked around online and there have been threads where dip has stained (although not the matte black one but you can never be too safe). It would be great if someone could help me out


TLR; will matte black plastidip stain my white paint?

Yep. Was going to post this. Guys famous for it now. I dig the S but a permanent S...hmm yeah that's an issue!

I wonder if its a certain color combination thing. Haven't seen much cases of black staining. I just recently took black plastidip off and the silver ignition paint underneath is clean.

Uncalled for. Doesn't make him a moron if we don't like his cosmetic decisions.

It wasn't even just that; the dude owns a movie theater and did this to advertise. It's a cool idea, and good way to claim the cost as a business expense.
