Just know that two years later you are still helping people. 🙏🏽

[@LeroySmith-s6o]

And please help me I truly just do not understand how it rips cleanly and sticks to the chrome so we’ll put comes right off the paint…

[@SpendingJar]

@user-qw9nf4rt3t think of it as vinyl in a spray can. It'll stick to the surface but it's removable. The chrome trim piece and where the roof line is, there is a groove. So when you peel the excess off, the groove is essentially cutting the plastidip to have a clean rip. If it was 1 solid piece, it won't cut like it did in the video.

[@Ohms_vs_Draaggs]

Man I was apprehensive at first but you got some fantastic results I’m gonna be doing white plastidip against my black finish

[@SpendingJar]

Awesome! Best of luck with your project 👍

[@Oplix]

Smart to leave those little pieces of tape inside the Honda emblem to give you an easier time.

[@SpendingJar]

Thank you! Appreciate you checking out the video!

[@sidharthsureshkumar4426]

Going to do this with my civic! Question: How do the edges peel off so smoothly? Do you need to cut the edges before peeling it off? Thanks

[@SpendingJar]

Hi and thanks for checking out the video! This is one question I get asked a lot. I think I should make another video showing in more detail. But to answer the question, the emblem is slightly raised due to the double sided tape. So when you peel it off, it cuts itself off from that raised part. Hopefully this makes sense. I need to black out another emblem so in that video, I'll try to get a close-up when I peel it.

[@jayman4268]

Been thinking about it but don't have the patience. Good stuff bro

[@SpendingJar]

Hey, thanks for checking out the video. Yea it takes a few hours to get it done. I was watching some YT in between drying time. Appreciate the sub!

[@Bees_Kneez]

So you don’t have anything in between the letters on the paint? You sprayed that to, and it just peels off perfectly like that? Just fyi great channel. I did all my lights in mine exactly like yours. I have the exact car. Thanks for any info you can give. Love it.

[@SpendingJar]

Hi and thanks for checking out my channel and videos 👍 yup nothing between the letters and plastidip. Just prep/clean well and sprayed just like the video. Once you have enough coatings and dries, it peels off. I didn't rush the peeling, went slowly. Hopefully this helps and good luck if you decide to plastidip your emblems ✌

[@Bees_Kneez]

@@SpendingJar love it. I’m not the best car guy but you really make it easy for those of us that suck at things like this. Keep it up

[@ABentPaperclip]

i was thinking about doing a vinyl chrome delete on my audi but after watching your video i think I like the simplicity of the plastidip better. it's been two years, has it held up pretty well?

Thanks! Appreciate it! Hope yours comes out awesome too! Congrats on your new ride.

[@poptrunkonu]

@@SpendingJar thanks bro, I am shopping around for new wheels as well

[@Average_CoD_Clips]

So the trick is to peel it off of your paint without peeling it off of your emblems? The tape in-between the H is a good hack for getting that peeled off, I’ll do that if I try this. 👍

[@SpendingJar]

Yup, it peels off the paint easily and somehow self cuts around the emblems. My guess is due to the edges of the emblems. I'll be doing the window trim next, hopefully those turn out good too. 👍

[@Average_CoD_Clips]

@@SpendingJar Might try it tomorrow on my old Volvo to get a practice run. Gonna trade it in towards a sport hatch soon anyway if I can find one near me with low miles.

[@SpendingJar]

@@Average_CoD_Clips Best of luck on it, let me know how it turns out. Hopefully you can find a good price on the Sport 🙏

[@aa-ron9488]

Great vid! I was thinking about doing this to my hatch ex but I was just curious if that’s waterproof? As in car wash safe or would it come off?

[@SpendingJar]

Hi and thanks for checking out my video. I think its wash safe from what I've seen and read from other people that used plasti dip. I have a pressure washer that I'll test on my next car wash.

[@L00NEYTUNE_]

[@SpendingJar]

So far so good, no issues. I self wash with a pressure washer and its held on great.

[@ArnelZapataJr]

Damn I have to plasti dip my emblems now! I hate chrome lol.

[@SpendingJar]

Yuppp! One of the cheapest mods you can do. It takes a little time but its worth it in my opinion.

[@HeroesandLegendsNation]

Now how easy is it to do the front?

[@SpendingJar]

Haven't done the front yet. I was going to Hyperdip the front vs plastidip. Once the weather gets warm, I'll have a video on it. Thanks for checking out the video!

[@soula551551n]

It's easy same as doing the back and the window trims. Spray it on peel it off. Did mine this week 1 can will do the lot. 😊

[@josueurrutia4235]

How does do in the car wash?

[@reneelopez4630]

Hi! Great video. How is the platsidip holding up after 5 months?

[@SpendingJar]

Hi and thanks! Still holding up strong and no issues so far thru weather and car washes 👍

[@jaycloudzz]

So what did you use to not get in between the civic lettering

[@SpendingJar]

Hi, just sprayed, once dried, I peeled off around the letter. The Civiv in plastidip remained 👍

[@agcheetos]

Hey I have a ex sedan and the lip on the trunk came the same color as the body, would you have any idea how to take it off so I can plasti dip it black. I think it’d be easier than newspaper and tape method.

[@SpendingJar]

Hi and thanks for checking out my video. I think it be easier plastidipping it on. But if you want to remove the spoiler lip and its held on by tape, my opinion is (of course still do your research): Try to remove on a sunny day, leave the car out to help soften the tape and use a hair dryer if needed to heat up the tape that's holding the spoiler on the trunk. Then use a fishing line to cut through the tape that's underneath the spoiler. After the spoiler comes off, you need to clean all the residue off the spoiler and the trunk before applying new tape. Make sure its throughly clean. Hope this helps 👍

[@BLAKskyyy]

so much self-control doing such thin coats haha feel like i always accidentally use half the can on the first go

[@SpendingJar]

lol, definitely took some control. It turned out better than I expected. Not bad for a few bucks :)

[@paulpadilla3184]

would you do underglow?

[@SpendingJar]

Hey thanks for checking out my video. Never thought about underglow but I still have a few more lights to upgrade in the future.

[@jordancrowder9331]

What did you use to get in between all the civic letters?

[@tqsuited]

I used a toothpick when I did mine, so it wouldn't scratch the paint surface.

[@HammerLaneInc]

You don’t need 30 min drying. You can do 5-8 minutes between coats

[@jmccamman97]

I just got a 2022 Civic hatchback and want to start doing small changes like this. It’s my 1st time tho and I’m nervous I would mess it up.

buy the real OEM black emblems for 80 bucks at college hills honda

[@SpendingJar]

Great thing about plastidip, its not permanent. Like you saw in the video, you can peel off any mistakes and start over. I know this is a few months old but hope you tried it out.

[@mirandahowell311]

Can this be done to the “H” on the rims?:)

[@franciscosaldivar6251]

Any tips? Just did it for the second time and mine doesn’t peel like yours it just peels off completely even if I try to go around 😫😫

[@SpendingJar]

It peels the emblem part off with it? I'm guessing its the same car and OEM emblem... If you haven't already, I would try peeling off slowly around the emblems. It should just cut off from my experience. Also maybe do lighter sprays when spraying in an angle, maybe there is too much plastidip around the edges of the emblem that it peels it off with it. When you spray, it should be layers of light spray, nothing runny, just a slight wet look. Best of luck if you try again. Hopefully it works out 👍

[@franciscosaldivar6251]

@@SpendingJar appreciate your reply ! I got a 2021 sport hatchback, I’ll do lighter sprays maybe that was the issue

Would you do it any different if you wanted a gloss look?

[@SpendingJar]

Plasti Dip sells the glossifier if you want a gloss look or you can buy Hyperdip, its another company like PlastiDip. They sell all in one sprays. If I had to do it over to make a glossy look, I'll probably try HyperDip Piano Black.

[@SpendingJar]

Also, you wouldn't do anything different. You apply the Plasti Dip glossifier at the end before you peel the access off.

Why didnt you just get the Sport or Sport Touring if you are an enthusiast bruh

[@SpendingJar]

Good question, guessing personal preference at the end of the day: Commuter car for work so didn't care for center exhaust upgrade, passing the car eventually to the kids, comfort features, saving some $ from getting the touring, lack of new cars at dealership nearby in sonic grey color, sport didn't have moonroof, its been a year so I can't remember it all lol.
