    I started with fancy bright color bike but at the end all I wanted was matte black.
    this spray rubber paint is nothing new with cars but it came out very good with my bike so I decided to share.
    best thing is this "REMOVAL" spray paint protects original coat paint from manufacturer and it just peels right off, if you want the original look back.

    NICE! Will be curious to hear how it holds up after trail use. I like the look!

    More coats you add the better it holds up, I have it on my pike and it works great. Except mine didn't turn out nearly as nice as yours.

    Its hard to describe it but when I touch it, I feel plenty protection for trail rides but I will get back with actual abuse. People also use this to protect vehicle rims and for looks.

    spray blends in with matte black color bike. It really looks origial paint from factory.

    I tried the same thing awhile back, but ended up with a rough finish... All the dirt from riding would stick... Did any of you have this problem? I might have to try again...

    West LA is replete with Plasti-dipped Lambos and RRs :) From that alone, I think it's a pretty good product :)

    plasti-dip is fun stuff. What a great way to cover up specialized branding.

    It will hold up fin until you hit a branch, that will put a scuff into it and you will the color underneath. The fun part is that you can always redo it.

    FYI WD-40 will make it come off
