    Yeah I cant see why you wouldnt instead spray them black, unless the owner wanted the ability to peel it all off

    When you use it as a dip you "dip" the item a few times to build it up to the desired level.

    I don't really see how it would last very long on a set of wheels - You would really need to sand the surface of the wheel down so its quite rough to give the dip something to adhere to , Otherwise its like pouring wax onto a smooth surface - Eventually air will get under it and it will begin to peel or bubble.
    Interesting, that's exactly what my concern was in the 1st place - therefore not worth considering it for car rims applications...

    Would work well on bits like the Lancer front bar as mentioned above though...

    Is ebay the only place you can get this item? Shipping is so expensive given the dangerous item category, can we source it locally in brisbane?
