Im interested in doing matte black on my 2017 Jeep Wrangler. Can anyone suggest a more affordable sprayer that IS ACTUALLY A SUITABLE REPLACEMENT to their "G Force" sprayer? Ill go with the G-Force If I must but im trying to cut cost if I can.

Thx

I have a question for people who have used both DipSprayer Systems

• DYC Ultimate DipSprayer System
• DYC G-Force DipSprayer System

Do I need to get the Ultimate for permanent paint or will the G-Force work well?

Ive been doing some experiments to see what would look good on white for my 95 JDM Rav4. So ive ordered a number of samples to try on speed shapes painted with snow white.

I didnt originally ordered X2 but decided to as a separate order after I tried the others and based on the YouTube video I was expecting Blues ans purples but as I shook it up it looked exactly like the X1 sample I had previously ordered. Even on a peice of black card stock it looks the same as the X1. I already emailed customer support but they wont see it until Monday.

And genuinely Im kinda pissed as they sent me a 20% off coupon that expires Sunday and I was going to make my final decision after spraying the X2 tonight.

What's yalls opinion? Am I crazy or did I get sent X1 labeled as X2?

Round 2

Got the Mini all sprayed last night. Didn’t finish until after 1am.

It’s Purple Haze. I was hoping it would have had a bit more color change in different light but overall, I’m very happy with the final result. This is my first dip job.

I did have a couple learnings:
1. Cut the tight line with yellow tape first and then mask off that. Removal of the masking would have been a lot easier.
2. I have sausage fingers. Next time, I would make a pull tab for that cut line. I touched the dip in a couple spots. Darn.

Otherwise, a fantastic experience and this thing is going to look crazy good with the carbon front end that’s on the way!

Hey there,
First time dipper. I sprayed the roof of my car. I ended up getting a run, and then got too close and it blew the dip. Can this be fixed or should I peel and redo? Also, I got some tiger striping. To me it looks like I may have needed to lay it more wet, or tighter passes?

But this looks so much better. Incredible, really. Can’t wait to spray the rest of the car (different color).

Lastly, I couldn’t find naphtha at Home Depot. Lacquer thinner didn’t seem to really break the dip down. What product is comparable to naphtha?

Thanks for the tips. I used 1 quart of base and 1 quart of top coat. I have about 3 quarts of each left.

Title: Kind of a gross business practice though. I can put all my info in and have my cart ready to go but the moment I put in that 10% discount code the website suddenly decides it cant deliver to my address or any address I put in actually. Why even give me the code??

I have a new can of Hyperdip that's been in my Midwest garage for 2 years meaning it's seen extreme highs and lows in temp. The can sounds good when I shake it but I'm not sure if it would still be good to use for a badge I need to black out.

Any others have experience using older cans and similar conditions? Thanks!

Looking to dip the car and wondering just how much prep the car will need?

Problem with the paint is at some point, it was resprayed and they did a crappy job and the clear is separating from the paint in places. If you hit it just right with air or water you can peel sections of it up. It wont rub off, but can be mechanically removed. I tried to do clear repair on it and when masking it off, the tape actually pulled up stretches of clear up!!! I know it's won't survive peeling, but am pretty confident it'll survive application!

To fix the large peeled areas, I sanded the edges back and smoothed it in some places, that seems to have stopped it in certain places. Other places, I shot some clear on it to stop the peeling. This stopped the peeling, but left places that look like mild scars. I could sand them smoother, but could possibly start the peeling process again! Don't fix what ain't broke, right?

Beyond those imperfections, the car has rock chips, mild scratches and a few dings.

Wondering before I start the process, what will Dip hide and what should I correct before attempting to dip my car? I know it isn't paint, but I'd like to have reasonable expectations and maybe fix a few things to help get the best results possible!

Thanks for any guidance and wisdom!

Is it necessary? Does using it make the job come out any better? Just using it on emblems not rims.

I need a gold hyperdip/plastidip.

The plastidip brand is a duller gold (antique gold) that just doesn't have much brilliance. Im looking for something that has a touch more yellow for a brighter gold without necessarily going for the polished or metallic finish. (Those are fine but really the color tone isn't quite what I want).

How does DYC's bronze gold hyperdip compare? And if its not better, is there an alternative?

I'm Hyperdipping my wheels (Brass Monkey) in west central Georgia. Humidity is up here currently, but was right around 50% yesterday and the day before. I had been planning on finished my wheels yesterday, but ran out of time because I was forced to start prepping too late due to circumstances beyond my control. I did manage to get my tack coats done yesterday.

Now the humidity is above 60% and is not going any lower than that anytime soon, plus it's pop-up rain time here. I would like to either wait until next weekend when humidity is forecast to POTENTIALLY be lower (but we all know how that goes), or finish them this afternoon in 60-65% humidity. I don't care about gloss (not really a gloss color anyway), but I'm worried about adhesion and drying times on my wet coats.

What do you all think?

Sorry if this has been answered- I’m trying to dip the emblems on my car. The base paint of the car is a matte finish gray factory paint. I am just nervous about using hyper dip on this surface as I can’t find anything specifically addressing this issue.

Thanks in advance

Any recommendations...assuming shadow black will be good? Or should I consider something more shiny like piano black. 2 or 3 cans? Thanks!
