I can guarantee that brake cleaner will eat right through that plasti dip.

Well it depends on which one you are using. If you use good brake cleaner like 1st AYD it will def come off because I work in a mechanic shop and Ive done it. I used to have the chrome window trim and plasti dipped them. I then switched them with someone for the black and used this brake cleaner to remove the plasti dip from the chrome. Yes its the spray can.

How long would the PlastiDip hold up if the whole car is plastidipped? Would you have to keep adding coats of plastidip?

If you maintain it, 2 years.
