This says "Plasti Dip" which insinuates plastic? I'm looking for something that is dries as a soft rubber, not a plastic. Does this do that?

It is more rubber than plastic, but it is not real soft. It is like the coating you find on pliers. I would not recommend it, though. It is extremely messy and doesn't tell you it takes a LONG time to dry. If you prop the item up, the gooey stuffs runs down the rest of the item. if you hang it up to dry, it still runs down and makes a bubble at the bottom. I ended up throwing the item I was trying to coat AND the plasti dip away!

H. Orzel,It does dry "soft". It has the consistency of the tool handles found in Lowes & other tool stores.

I'm not sure I can help, I have problem with holding factory made coffee mugs,so I made a larger handle out ofwood and uses the dip to cover it. It was messy and didn't get hard, I gave up.

The dried plastic has the rubbery consistency found on the coatings of most pliers or channel locks. It's not a hard plastic, but not as soft as rubber. After a decade or so, it does get harder.

Depending on its thickness . But if its not the texur you're looking for it canbe peeled off easy enough, I bought it to dip my arms of my eye glasses . I have a allergy to metal. Working In Vietnam I don't dare trust the eye glass guy. They don't need to be doctors only be able to set up shop . So give it a try if its not what you're looking for peel it off . Good luck .

Yes, it will feel rubber like after curing. It will also have tar like smell, at leat for some time innitially and then it may subside. Although I have used it undercarriage on my car, but I think It will stick fairly well to the plastic. The main purpose of this is to use it undercarriage to prevent rust and to dampen the noise.

I must have thrown out the manufacturer slip by accident. I haven't taken it out of its clear plastic, from what I can feel/tell it's a heavy duty rubber... Hopefully my answer helped you.

In the past I have tried that and the plastic from model became soft...like the paint was too strong. To be safe I would stick with paint made for models.

Gloss paint yes, Flat no. Use least abrasive for painted surface and test in an area that won't show. Be VERY careful not to rub thru. What kind of coating on plastic surface?

This is more of a gasket type silicone and doesnt dry as rigid and hard as say the clear silicone look for specific type silicone that is for aquariums or is especially for use in sealing glass......it is usually right with other silicones made by Permatex at hardware store......or Amazon search it(havent tried that......but gonna right now...LOL)

This is not really a wax-- rather a wax fortifier or glaze. It's probably a wax formulation but highly diluted. I'd keep it off vinyl, leather and most non-glossy plastics.

May want to try Flex Seal Liquid Rubber Sealant Coating Spray. This product is not for rubber; more suitable for plastic/stone figurines.

I've never had any problem with it when it comes in contact with moldings via overspray. When I get done washing my car I use this product on the painted surfaces. Then I dress my tires with a gel. I use Armor-All tire gel. I then use the gel on all of my plastic moldings(side-view mirrors, under-paint trim areas, window moldings etc.) and it works and looks great. Keeps the plastic looking new. Just use a good, strong cloth to apply it with. I'm sure any gel would do. Gels work better than sprays for plastic surfaces in my opinion.

I think you would be better off using an epoxy adhesive. This automotive GOOP is like rubber cement, and will bond materials together, but it isn't a very strong bond. An epoxy will do a much better job of permanently bonding the plastic.

The answer is yes. It actually makes the plastic feel like the paint does when it is waxed. I does not hurt the plastic only enhances it.

Yes, however I would suggest not getting the sprayable kind. Get the full plasti dip and thin it with xylene. You will get a better mix that will spray easy and also provide better coverage.

Actually have not painted this material but there are a couple spray painta on the market for plastics. Rust oleum is the one I have used for similar products. Clean it well, follow the weather recomdations, & apply in several light, even coats, starting spray off the material, move smoothly across area, & stop after you get past the edge.

I use it for auto glass not for plastic. There are cleaners used for auto plastic.

Its a really thin plastic, looks like you would wet it to hold. Only mine never did hold.

I don't use it for such a use. But you should research what solvent to use with the sealer, and if it dissolves plastic, I think it is polypropoline, but I'm not sure. Check with Hudson mfg. with this question so as to not damage your sprayer.

Plasti Dip lasts if you put a thick coat, but you have to clean the car first. This item is a glossifier, and only sticks to PlastiDipped surfaces. If you get the Clear PlastiDip, and then add the Glossifer, it'll work. You need two cans of Dip and one can of Glossifier for the front Bumper, if you want a thick enough coat. It''ll really only take a little over a can, but you'll need the second can to finish. If you're doing lines with painting tape, before you peel the tape, spray a light coat along the tape, the glossifier will do, but it'll help you get clean lines.
