How many gallons Plasti Dip
Id rather get my car wrapped grey.
Then I found out there was a clear matte plastidip that I could spray over my Sparkling Graphite Metallic E90 that gives a frost grey look, which is what I'm going for. So why not save money for the same look. No hate. I was wondering how many gallons it will take to cover my car (approx. 3 coats) Ive looked around and cant find anything. Considering that 2 or so gallons would probably do the trick. (Not Plastidipping the roof) Anyone with experience have any input? Much appreciated. |

Best bet would be to hit up the DYC forums they have some pretty solid guides and how to's already out there. From experience though I can tell you 3 gallons will be enough. You'll probably only need 2 1/2 but its nice to have some extra in case of a mistake. Remember go thicker on the front bumper and hood ~twice as many coats as rest of car. It'll hold up against road debris much better.

Update with pics when you're done, this is what I plan to do as well. I was thinking of clear bra but then I thought about matte clear to get frozen grey, which should be easier than wrapping the entire car myself.
