Of course Danny 8)

Plato dips good on little stuff, looks shit on big areas

Consistency in colour and finish seem to be an issue

Usually looks shit

i've used it for grills and the front valance on my mk2, worked well cause you dont need any prep work etc.

gets dirty easily though
i used to be cool

I've only tried out of the can, would be interesting to see from a spray gun. Splattering made it look a little more textured, but got an ok finish on the inside...still debating if I keep it or not...but that's the beauty of it. Looks shit, peel it off. Could have been a waste of coin, but worth a shot atleast.

Yeah that's what I meant

Looks good on grilles wheels badges etc

But a whole car or roof it seems hard to achieve good consistency ;)

There are some companies specialise in applying it to the whole car, I'm actually thinking about having it done to the T4

For me that's the only time schwarz wheels work ;)

I'm considering ordering some of the shit and having a crack

Won't be for a few weeks but I'll let you know how I get on

I think the reason most of the whole cars I've seen done are shit is due to the poor application mainly

Always seem to look like they've been sprayed too dry end up looking textured in patches

Been researching it a bit, it can be thinned down which should then give you a smoother finish

Anyway I'll let you know ;)
