Today I re-bedlined all my plastics. However, this time instead of using the roll on kind I used the aerosol can.

Here was my weapon:

It went on pretty smooth. I like the gun grip although I noticed that every can had some left in it, and the gun grip didn't give enough pressure to empty the entire can.

Here was the roll on prior to today:

And after:

Heres my rig looking like its been quarantined:

finished:

I x'n my fingers that I don't have to do this again as it took about 4 hours to tape it up lol.

Looks great jhill! Thinking of doing this to mine in the near future. How many cans total did it require?

Thanks Cacattack! I used 6 cans but I would've loved to have double that. Mainly cause it took so long to prep up and I don't wanna have to do it again. I love the look but honestly wish I had never done it. On a side note, if I do it again I will be removing my cladding and side steps and going back to tan. Rustoleum started making tan in a spray can, and I really contemplated doing it this time but the prep would require l alot more time, so since i had already bedlined black before I just took the easy way out.

I used that on another rig. Looks awesome initially. Nearly impossible to clean (rough texture). Hard to keep looking nice...

Curious if it works out better for you!

I have used it before on other rigs as well. It is pretty tough to keep clean but a nice rag and an at home car washing keeps it looking good. Also I have found it to be pretty durable.

A little update on my rig...

I ended up getting a mustache for fathers day.

I also got a sunroof deflector...which after I threw it on there I found out serves no purpose what so ever so I will take it off sooner or later

I finally put on my dakar emblems which are pretty sweet

On a sad note my daggone 4wd lights wont stop flashing and they have been constant now for about a week so tomorrow morning we are off to see why at the mitsu service department. ..lame!

A proper mitsubishi 4x4 isn't complete without a Dakar badge :sombrero: Great work on your montero!

Thanks Dake21! I completely agree, now if my 4wd lights would follow suit and quit flashing I would be ok lol. I normally wouldn't care but the fam and I are about to drive 350 miles to the beach and on top of that they allow offroad beach access, so I just wanna make sure its gonna be road...and offroad worthy to drive that far with kids.

Love the Dakar tags. A bit more subtle than this:

Looking good.
