Plasti Dip, how many aerosol cans????

Hello Everyone,

How many cans of Plasti Dip = 11 ounces each, would I need to paint my Specialized Hardrock mountain 26" frame?

I have plasti-dipped a number of car wheels with zero peeling issues. It’s all in the pre-paint prep. Make sure the frame is completely clean and wiped down with alcohol or a pre paint solution from your local automotive paint supplier. It needs to be immaculate. You first may want to score the frame with light sanding to big the plasti more bite. Follow the directions and you should be fine. If you don’t like the result, don’t know why, you can remove the plasti with copious amounts of WD-40 and rags. Comes off easily. Go for it and watch the YouTube videos oh how-to.
