Man this one was fun! How do you think it came out?

[@sreenadh966]

Op

[@jonassvensson59]

Pretty cool

[@NickPDX22]

Please do Arctic black and motor oil!!! PLZ PLZ PLZ been asking for a while now. I promise I’m a future customer!! :)

[@jasonbickford4283]

Once again you guys nailed it! Its awsome!

[@sinformant]

I think.you should do the paint bucket on a string technique again, long put in clear dip with a flip pearl in it so the car looks stealth black but has random lines of color shift

[@mikecummings7899]

Now apply the soap in a wind tunnel so it looks like the car was painted while doing a fly by

[@K-L-K]

OMG - YES !!!

[@blagud1158]

Yeah I was thinking the same! That would look so awesome!

[@Adam-uu5pt]

Just pool it up at the front of the panel and use compressed air to splatter it towards the back of the car

[@DavidMBebber]

...or drive the vehicle under a trellis that has streams of soap dripping. ...and then hit the highway for a moment.

[@erikkarling2176]

Bro...that's a great idea. I think it would look tits.

[@ttsupra87]

I love it!! Coolest effect I've seen in a while. Remember when we were kids and take red, blue, green, yellow, or whatever color crayons you wanted and made solid sections of color with it then covered it all with black and scratched it off in a design? Who knew we'd see a adult version!

[@K-L-K]

OMG - this just brought back childhood memories! Thank you! And yes, this is totally the adult version of that. The hypershift underneath is what really makes this pop ❤️🧡💛💚💙💜

[@jengworkz]

We made that too ❤

[@vivalesvegas]

That’s exactly what I was thinking!

[@chrishawkins32014]

Yes! U nailed it! I was thinking that as well… crazy to see it on a car however that’s hella cool.

[@coryransdell6000]

Wow ....Doesn’t that bring back memories.....

[@1970HondaCL100]

But why wasn’t the dip wash labeled Fonzie Thicc?

[@onemansvideos2134]

Good one

[@ViQRoy89]

That's what I was gonna say

[@novachannel1981]

was thinking the same lol

[@sarmsigma]

Cause Fonzie is THIKKKKKKKKQQQQQQQCCCCC but thats too long

[@alphagt62]

Rather than go to the corner store and buy Dawn, they made custom soap that no one can buy? I missed something?

[@paganpriestess979]

That really enhances the colour shift and as experiments go that is stunning.

[@Daddyomac85]

When you started washing the paint off it looked like it was going to be a disaster, but it turned out looking amazing. We’ll done guys. 👍🏻

[@Acesura]

This one is so pretty. I could imagine it with a space theme as to where the paint shines through.

[@64t120r]

The technique has been around for a while. I learned about it from the guys at House Of Kolor. You used a good color scheme for the base. Came out nice. You can also use those plastic ketchup and mustard bottles you would see in dinners. They give you good control over your line width. You can use them to get horizontal lines on the sides of the vehicle.

[@AndersonKeim]

Looks really cool. I'd like to see what effects could be achieved by pooling the soap and then hitting it with a leaf blower or a strong fan.

[@falxonPSN]

Oooh, motion blur streaks!

[@Adam-uu5pt]

Compressed air

[@ernietorres6730]

I like it. But next time I think it would look better to splash it on say with a brush as opposed to pouring it on

[@EversonBernardes]

Fill some balloons with soap and thrown them on the car for some splashes.

[@MultiTimelady]

Use a stencil as well

[@sabotagedali6006]

Or do it with a pendulum effect

[@scty66]

After some fine tuning, this could be used as a way to “mask off” fine details like old school pinstripe or flames for a dip project. You could do one of the fade dips and then put hot rod pinstripes with a thicker soap, then the shadow black over it.

[@PascalCrypto]

Oldschool is very much possible with plastidip without this. Just need to know when to take off the fine line tape en when to keep a sharp razor or precision knife 👌🏻😉

[@johnpoulter8379]

I was thinking the same, instead of a load of masking tape to mask off graphics, could just outline with pinstripe then fill with soap

[@wilhallman2890]

They used to do this in the 80s with vaseline... check out Earl Sheib if you've never heard of him.

[@stevenightfox6022]

Wait, I think something went wrong at the paintshop😂 The color shifting looks amazing😍

[@linifiles]

Am I the only 15-year-old girl that thinks DipYourCar is her favorite youtuber?

[@brendancross2767]

Not the only person, that's for sure

[@linifiles]

:DD

[@destinychandler8558]

Girl I have loved cars since I was 9 ❤️ you are awesome

[@nniemeyernn2]

This would also look awesome with a well defined pattern, I love how the black makes the color shift pop like crazy.

[@theyoftheravens]

Diamonds or scales would look Amazing

[@therealdonnawagner]

I love how adventurous you all are in this video! Keep these coming. Great job! 👏👏👏😃

[@Jaaskeleton]

So rad! I love the paint splatter effect and the rainbow shift is gorgeous. I just wish the whole car looked as good as the hood. The wider splashes look best imo.

[@kariklimt1533]

That turned out SICK! - if you were going to keep it long term, you'd probably have to clear over it, right? 🌈

[@cramdangle]

I don’t think you’re supposed to clear coat over this rubberized material

[@mackm.6114]

There is really nothing “long term” in regards to plastidip. Sure, You can keep it on…but it’s peelable properties, colors, flex, etc all fade with time.

[@Adam-uu5pt]

Yes you would want to clear over it to make sure it doesn't lift on the edges and to protect it. To clarify, you would use the plaatidip specific clear, not enamel or any other type of paint. They sell multiple different protective top coats on the site, or you could use the dip armor ceramic coating In response to the question of longevity, sure it won't last decades like a well cared for paint job would, but done right and with the higher end dip products like proline, you could hit the 10 year mark and beyond.. but that's not the intention of the product. It's for people to have an affordable way to change the look, with the option of peeling it off and doing something new or going back to factory at any time. Once you do it once and get a feel for it, your last coat will still be drying and you'll already be thinking about what you want to do next.. it's addictive 😆 And honestly you can do a vehicle 3-4 times for the cost of 1 professional paint job. If you chose to not have any expensive pearls or options and just stick with a solid color.. you could easily do 20x color changes for the price of painting once

[@russellball1984]

@@cramdangle yes you can,you can get plasti dip glossifier top coat for a nice finish and can also get plasti dip tint for lights

[@SPEEDFREAK6988]

@@cramdangle If it's anything like the canned spray vinyl you can clear it.Ive personally done it twice in small scale tests using mazda3 emblems off a Gen 1 and a gen 2. The Gen 1 was done two years ago and still looks great with the clearcoat making it look like it was wet and I just did the Gen 2 about 2 weeks ago with neon pink and it pops like crazy.Just check and make sure it's compatible with vinyl.

[@DemSweetCheekz]

Reminds me of the rainbow scratch paper projects in elementary school art class😍

[@MrDox90]

If you're gonna do this next time, maybe try dipping in a big brush in soap and use it to splash in all directions. Just to add some dynamic. This turned out very well the shift comes trough much stronger than usual. Also you can use petroleum gel (vaseline) in the same way, except it's much thicker and you can actually quite literally draw cool designs across if you have patience. Then clean it with a rag and some alcohol or medical benzene.

[@woosier1]

When you drove it out it looked like it was crying hypertears. Really cool experiment!

[@Oridavis]

This is sweet, honestly I thought all the top dip was going to spray off with the powerwasher (shows how well it adheres)

[@Pens724]

Everyone out here tryin to keep their rides spotless. Fonzie: Let's make it look like we just busted some balloons of paint on it.

[@joelvinson]

I was really skeptical at first, but holy wow. Consider me converted. That looks fantaaastic.

[@gabep1281]

Absolutely sick looking. Best part of doing something like this is there no way someone can copy the "style" because it will be different every time. Fonzie you said you had a blast, but your stoic (almost frustrated look while pressure washing) told a different story. In fairness I would have a similar look doing what you did, but love your guys work and videos. I can't wait to dip my Camaro as soon as I get one lol.

[@hot_wheelz]

Gotta admit, that's pretty sick!

[@michaellozipone6599]

You could do all kinds of designs and detailed stuff with that liquid soap trick. Really, the possibilities are practically endless

[@GOLFIN0530]

Okay, so this is probably my favorite so far! Y’all never cease to amaze me with the talent you guys have!

[@mastersmods]

Absolutely love how the black sets off all the different colours of that hypershift base 👌🏼

[@pjbuma13]

Didn’t think I would like this as much as I do. Looks awesome. Curious what you think about the durability of this since you don’t have a solid top layer. Wonder if throwing on a layer of top coat would be beneficial.

[@escapedcops08]

Top coat of what?

[@pjbuma13]

@@escapedcops08 either a clear dip top coat or maybe even do that candy black they did last week. Just something to lock it all in basically. Like a clear coat.

[@Hycinex]

could put a clear over it to protect it !

@@Hycinex that’s what I was thinking

[@Jesse-2531]

[@L.Alchemy]

Yes, Super Cool! And with the Plasti-Dip, you can just repeat the experiment endless times, trying something different each time! It's always interesting to see what you come up with, and how each experiment turns out!

[@SangosEvilTwin]

TBH, it's not my jam personally, but I can see how some others would like it. I'd still like to see Pluto Midnight Flip in matte or low gloss over an amethyst base color.

[@Stellra52]

I swear my older cousin had a black denim jacket with a design almost exactly like this when she was a teenager in the 80s. Really amazing unique design, I love how the black really highlights the rainbow colors in the base shift.

[@JustAskCarlos]

Gotta get some of that "Fonzie Thick" for your next project!

[@djr093r5]

That's a 5 from me. Love it. There's so much happening there, so many complex layers and shifting tones, with the black foreground offering a brilliant counterpoint. That's a work of art!

[@anthonykf99]

I am really wanting to get my car dipped with one of these "experimental" dips, but I'm too scared to do it myself 😂😂

[@killerdoxen]

That’s the beauty of the system. You screw up, peel it off and start over. I know cost can be a factor, but putting that aside, there’s a lot of flexibility there.

[@mrkdmailhot]

It looks like the contrast between the hypershift and the black makes the effects of the hypershift pop a lot more.

[@mat4410]

I agree with the wind tunnel idea with some blues. Looks amazing.

[@dhawthorne1634]

The rough edges between the masked and unmasked areas looks like a peel waiting to happen. I'd probably hit it with a couple coats of gloss or satin clear to seal it up and maybe fuse the layers back together. This does make me wonder if you could use a liquid mask that isn't so runny, one that could be brushed on and wouldn't run due to gravity. My first thought is corn syrup. Paint it on in a cool, shaded area, spray the dip then go bake the car in a hot sunny location to soften the syrup and pressure wash the car. My second thought is to use a gelatin like aspic. It is used in food service as display liner or as a glossy top coat for certain foods. It gels really firm and can easily be melted, strained and reused. To use this, you would likely need to build it up by brushing on a coupe layers in an air conditioned spray booth and a sunny summer afternoon south of the Mason, but it should work a treat.

[@Derbydude406]

This is so cool... I want to do this on one of my derby cars. I think that would be an awesome look.

[@waden404]

Very interesting. Usually this dipping thing isnt too appealing to me, but for some reason, this works....for me.

[@iamnotafan7996]

Pretty cool! Would it be possible to do a kind of paintball (or small water balloon) splatter effect rather than pouring and dripping the soap? I think something like that would take it over the top.

[@ImKozenn]

Omg, this is one of the coolest jobs y’all have done. It turned out amazing!

[@Yahooligan72]

Hell yea! A mix between an LSD Tiger and a muscle car. Nice

[@swishy4mbg]

Probably one of the most creative ideas. I’m sure a couple of attempts would give killer result.

[@betterlatethannever4529]

Definitely have to do this again, but use stencils for the soap. Imagine how cool a full body design would look with this effect

[@erinkroll3613]

By far one of the best paint jobs I've seen on this channel. 🤩

[@Ghost_moto_WPN]

This is probably one of my favourite…No it is my favourite experiment you guys have done. I like that the colour shift is still Matt because you haven’t clear coated it. It really contrast with the matte black and because it’s not one big canvas you could be looking at one section with five different individual colour stripes. Dope as fuck.

[@KunaiKrazy]

This looks like something I'd wear as an article of clothing. Very cool design, indeed. Your bloopers have me dying.

[@philipimler5516]

Wasn’t sure I was gonna like it up to the final reveal. It came out great! Kudos!

[@xxTheMouseThatRoaredxx]

This would be cool Jackson Pollock style with a paintbrush and a ladder to get the height needed to spray droplets and drizzle the soap. Loved it!

[@demonicsquid7217]

Used this sort of technique for years spray painting guitars. If you do a fine mist you can get a very cool speckling effect. Spray painting in the rain is also kind of cool. On the car though it looks like it's driven through a five-year old's paint set.

[@BeefaloBart]

Many years ago we used dish soap on the mirrors and glass of trucks (in the army) to mask the parts we didn't want paint to stick on our paint jobs. Used a brush to apply it which may be helpful for some folks to try and do larger areas.

[@ShineAqua]

I believe soap is used mostly because it's cheap and easy to find, but I'm willing to bet you can get the effect you're looking for using Glycerol/Glycerin. It's the main thickening agent used in soap, but it doesn't leave the same soapy residue after cleaning it off.

[@TexasLadyS]

It looks great. I like the thinner stripes on the sides best. It could look really cool if you did a splatter pattern with the soap and then painted over it. You’d end up with a spotted car that would look cool!

[@diadexxus]

Whoa! I LOVE how this turned out! Great job!

[@JohnDoe-jj6wf]

Mist the car with water until large droplets form, then spray dip at a 45 degree all in the same direction to get 3D water drop effect. Looks super cool in the end

[@purplealice]

This is like the fabric process called batik, where they paint a design on the fabric with melted wax. Then they dye the fabric, but the color doesn't take where the wax is. Then they boil the cloth, and the wax melts off and gets skimmed off and re-used.

[@irtehdar2446]

Thats awesome. Now use a red->green hypershift and do the soap trick to put a green->red hypershift ontop of it. For a car it could be fun to use a watergun to apply the soap for a more splashy effect.

[@fabricecadet9109]

That actually turned out pretty dope guys! Great proof of concept. Definitely deserves a Part 2. Would like to see more of this

[@Nommicus]

Was thinking when you said spiral you'd hang it like a pendulum by a string from the fitting above the car and let the pot just spin round dripping a little from a small hole, it'll make really smooth lines and spiral well, there is a YT artist I saw a while ago who does huge canvasses like this. 😊

[@vdubster]

Came out a lot better than I thought it would. Props for experimenting

[@LyraJolting]

The pattern is sick, love it with the hyper shift

[@audreycofield9699]

This is super cool looking. Only thing that could make it better would be a few clear coats on top, for some extra shine.

[@gueto70]

Did a friends car back in the 80's. Painted it with random bright greens and yellow. He had a pneumatic upholstery glue gun that spat glue like a big web pattern for bonding fabric to a large flat surface. We loaded it with Vaseline and "webbed" the car before painting gloss black. Cleaned then shot clear. It was unique but not worth repeating.

[@Dknow80]

Now thats a car with a lot of DRIP! LOVE THE BOTTOM LAYER!!

[@stevenrook1477]

Yes so 😎 cool I've seen guys do this in the 90s on their mini trucks I think it might go back a little further also use a soft wire brush thing or toothbrush to apply.. I like it

[@ianbowie8121]

This is the most beautiful paint job I have ever seen !!

[@robsorgdrager8477]

This is prolly the closest thing to what I've wanted in a splatter design so far. The big globs and drips with the colors coming through the black. I think globbing soap on and letting it gravity travel with 90's fluorescent colors under the black would be so cool.

[@MrGingrbread]

Probably one of the best paint effects ever done on this channel!

[@mechanicundercontract7752]

That graphic was everywhere in the late 80’s, early 90’s…also splatter, and straight lined tape off…Eddie Van Halen’s guitars had all of them. In paint.👍🤙

[@HycinthRuin]

This looks amazing and it would be really nice to see you do it again and use the color change/glow in the dark mixed in to the under coat.

[@adampalmer5399]

I think this was really neat, it made for a great video but it definitely looks like $hit but to each their own! 🤯 I love that undercoat color!

[@UnlistedAccount]

You guys outdid yourself with this one. That is the coolest paint job I have ever seen. The contrast, the hypershift, the pattern, shapes highlighting car features. Subscribed.

[@bzhln6]

Looks sick, I love it. If you try it again use a paint brush to drizzle and flick the brush to make spots with the soap.

[@johngaskey218]

I was doubting this one while you were power washing, but the final product is fantastic!!

[@christinevr7698]

I’m imagining a more deliberate painting on of the soap mix, for a tiger stripe effect. Could be super cool.

[@wensis2006]

Dude fonz... Crazy... This is what I'm going to do as soon as I get the right car 😁

[@Adam-uu5pt]

Practice with what you got now so when that time comes you'll know what you're doing lol

[@visualflair]

I think this looks pretty cool the way you all did it with the color underneath it. Not sure how it would look with a solid color under. Probably still slick.

[@daved8551]

Anyone else getting 90's vibes from this?? Love it!!

[@JeremyCulbreath]

I was skeptical for the reasons you explained at the end. But the results speak for themselves. Great job.

[@mikebartram8424]

Idea for this; paint brush a design and use regular matte black. You could maybe get something more than vertical stripes on the sides. Concept is crazy cool though.

[@samoanpunch]

Liquid masking has been around a hundred years. You can also buy the stuff which is designed to peel off like rubber cement but it doesn't harden or stick like glue. The same use of liquid masking is used to make a fake wet look on flat surfaces with big water droplets only and spraying the paint from a hard angle about 80 degrees and then let the water evaporate naturally.

[@Wwhitewulf]

Quite enjoyed this. I wonder if maybe paint brushing a design onto the car with the fonzie think foam then plasti dipping over then washing off. Well done guys, good fun

[@TheDBZ_KING7_Official]

This would look really cool with a bright contrasting base coat like yellow or green. This looked really sick.

[@claudevieaul1465]

That's pretty wild actually!! Reminded me of a finish that was very popular on guitars in the 80s: crackle paint! Same idea: multicoloured base, soap on top, then spray with black over the wet soap. Maybe that'd make another fun project? 😜👍

[@pierrew1532]

Very cool !! What about adding some last transparent layers on top (matte or gloss depending on one's liking) in order to kinda seal/protect the black and color layers and their interface ?

[@patriot96b]

This gives me crazy ideas... wonder what it would look like with the same base, but the red to black shift. You could also maybe put the soap in a nozzled bottle and do some more varied designs on the side of the car, of even some purposeful shapes (hearts, stars, etc.).

[@Pittsburgh-412]

That's the sickest plasti dipped car ever. Looks badass man

[@AddictedToOctane]

It looked like the power washer was going to rip it all off, great testament of how well it sticks. We're doing our next 3 builds with this.

[@adambahnsen4577]

Makes it look like a color change hot wheels car! Really makes the hypershift pop!

[@williamdarmond3827]

So I definately see a DipWash Concentrate coming out of this. Cuts down on shipping costs. Also allows for Foam Cannons to be a little better in usage.

[@ronhaller2143]

[@Cormyre]

Reminds me of an adult version of those crayon scrape art things we use to do in elementary school. Dig it!
