Well the vinyl comes sticky, but unless your perfect at getting in on straights and not getting it stuck to itself yes, If you wet it it become slippery until the water dries trust me it easier to wet it first then doing it all in one shot and screwing it up. With wetting it you have some other attempts

wet app is hands down the best way to do it.. its wayy faster way easier...

sorry joe, i picked up the last can @ the woodbine and 7 one...lol cuz i wanted a spare can...i can sell it to u if u want lol

my conclusion is grille = plastidip best but bumper vinyl might be better, bcuz spraying really nicely on such a big surface w/o flaws is really hard, plus its easier to wipe bugs off vinyl than plasti dip

and chrome grill cuz there are so many corners and bends its best to use plastidip

any one know how much it is to buy vinyl just enuff to cover bumper @ shinzo?

$8-10..I'm liking it! lol

absolute, if you're getting one, lemme know, I'll tag along. I can't seem to find that place. I was looking for it before to get my vinyl installed but I can't find it - was driving around for 20 minutes til I gave up - and I forgot my GPS..lol

stay on topic guys, for help with vinyls try search the recent vinyl threads and discussing there. or if you must use the off topic thread.

Past pricing will be irrelevant. Very Very soon, a fixed pricing schedule will be put in to place in regards to shinzo stuff.
