    Anyone use a product called Plastidip to coat stuff in plastic? How durable is it once the plastic dries? How thick can you make the plastic coating? Do you think it would be suitable to restore a "bumper hood " ?

    I've used it, but it was awhile ago, we used to coat our hand tools with it, I found that it would come off after awhile.

    I've used it. It works for awhile, but eventually peels off...
