You would think so, but i only used 6 cans and yet to do the roof since it needs sanding from **** paint peeling.
Plasti dip needs way more to have a nice coat to still be easily peelable.

So i got more work, but ill try and get pics tomorrow.

And yes go 2 agms!

I myself have never done plasti dip before but have seen it in person. How does it withstand the weather? Ya 2 batteries....next yr for sure.

With the very little layer that is on there, it has no issue at all. Problem is when its dusty or dirt flying.. it shows alot!
Also not sure if its the small layer or the dip alone lol but it doesnt take a pressure washer so good close by aka less then 6 inches lmao.

Some of the dip bubbled and came off so i have to repaint that spot.

But other then that a good distance like a foot and half away is no issue to wash it unless you go hand and soap.

Oh nah with rain and weather in general its just like normal paint.
Like i said a pressure washer is not even recommended for normal paint with clear coat in distances of less then 6 inches.

To much pressure makes it peel off or really get torn off.

Dont forget houston has crazy weather.

Could be raining for a hour then all of a sudden get hot and foggy then a hour later drop to 50's cold.

Then next day be hot and sunny then rain again lol.

Texas weather is really horrible on paint.

Nope. No charger,....and with Optima's I think it has to be one of their chargers?

This tahoe still has alot to be done cosmetically until im ready to work on the audioz.
Mechanically its race ready [emoji41].. but interior needs work and exterior i still need to finish painting it.

Roof top is still white [emoji23][emoji23].

Remember this is all done with spray cans and currently is dirty.

Tahoe's aren't made to race lmao.

So what's with the Little Caesar's pizza box?! Kick that shout outta the way when taking pics!!

Liked the white better....it stood out better than now but that's my opinion.

I was doing paint touch ups near the window edges so used it as a edge.
Also your right but it would look nicer glossed up. But i rather try this matte black then peel it off later lol
