peelable paint.
Saw this paint in the store thought it would be good for putting a hood stripe on me c3. Not sure on what I want so being able to remove it would be nice.
Has anyone used it and what are your thoughts?
Thanks

Can't comment on the peelable paint. I used paper and electrical tape to prototype stripes a couple weeks ago.

Sounds like you are referring to plasti dip. People use it on everything. For it to peel off easily you need to put it on with at least 4 coats otherwise it doesn't peel up as well. Even if you have coverage with 2 coats put 4 on or you'll regret it.

Get the plasti dip. Home depot has it for $6 a can. They also have a rustoleum brand there but that stuff isnt very good from what Ive read.
Not sure how big of stripes you want but a full can does 4 coats on one wheel with a little left over. You may want to search doing stripes with it. Not sure how you can do an edge without it lifting when you peel the tape up?

So it looks like the method is to do the center of your stripes first then do the lines last, pulling up the tape when its wet.
