They look really good.....I guess you want them to last,but I'm interested in how it easy it comes off,is it semi-permanent ?....ie when you want to put the wheels back to original finish ?"Better to remain silent and be thought a fool,than to speak out and remove all doubt" ?.....what rubbish...

I haven't tried Euan but I hear from others that it comes off well with a bit of elbow grease 21 year LR veteran > D2 GS 2003 > D3 S 2006 > D3 HSE 2009 > D4 HSE 2013 > D4 HSE 2015 > D5 HSE 2018 > DS HSE R-Dynamic P300e 2021

Sounds like a "win-win" to me....they look really good....very impressed with the finish...not bad for an amateur "Better to remain silent and be thought a fool,than to speak out and remove all doubt" ?.....what rubbish...

Is that the Top Gear hover van? I know it's not considered "kind" to say no these days, but no. Just no, ok? And if it's not ok, still no.

it didn't look too bad with the OEM centres - you got the ones with the chrome ring around them, I have the same wheels in black but the full dark centres.....
Wheels are still in the UK of course But ready for collection and next spring's summer tyres.

I've sprayed a few items in the past with plastidip but I always get a textured finish rather than a fresh smooth one. Any tips or is just a case of more coats?

Got them on the vehicle now, also with the black caps. Amazing product, but I regret not using a few more boxes. Good thing is that it can easily be re-sprayed.
