In my opinion, the big advantage to Plastidip is having the ability to peel it off if you don't like it. I see the youtube videos of guys plastidipping their wheels and entire cars. I tried a small battery cover on a motorcycle I recently bought, and it was rubbing off after the first ride from my leg rubbing on it. Yes, I did let it cure for a few days before putting it on the bike.
I wonder how well it would hold up on wheels??

I plasti dipped mine black
I Have a 96' Disco in Alpine white. I did my stock rims in black, turned out great. I have had them for 3 months, washed probably 8 times and no issues. I also did the plastic corners on my bumpers and they look awesome.

Just remember to de-grease whatever you are doing with the plasti dip or it will shrink and pull off the item.
They also have a clear topcoat called, I believe, Glossifier that will make your job look more stain than flat.
I was took my rims off, laid the lugs inside and sprayed them, then removed the lugs and peeled the excess off of the lugs and the tires. By leaving the lugs I made sure that the coating wouldn't peel up when the lugs are tightened on it.
I also dripped sweat right onto the job I was doing, grabbed a towel, wiped up the sweat area and proceeded to spary over that area with no issues. I love Plasti-Dip, I think I will try and get a job repping them!
