Re: Project GTL!

Thanks guys.

Here is a pic at night. The outside rings are more noticeable. I need to do it with a better camera, or play with my settings. The inside ring is just a ring when you look at it but it overexposed in the pic.

Re: Project GTL!

Couple updates: I plasti-dipped the wheels. I used the glossifer as a clear and am very happy with the results. Gives it a satin finish.

Also got my windows tinted this weekend. I went with 35% all around. I wanted darker, but the rear window already had 35% on it and I didn't want the car to look funny! I also put a visor on.

onto the pics...

How many coats of black and how many coats of glossifier did you use? I was thinking of maybe trying this to do the 'color-match' section on my passat.

Re: Project GTL!

3-4 light coats. And prob 2 light coats of gloss. I used 3 cans of black on wheels and 1 can of gloss. Can of each should be plenty for ya. Menard s is the best place to buy it.
