German vinyl car wrap specialist, Foliatec, has developed a new spray-on film that allows car enthusiasts to change the color of their wheels without paying for an expensive paint job.
Foliatec says two cans (400ml each) of their Spray Film will give all four of your wheels a new color. The DIY product involves removing the wheel, masking the tire, spraying the film and mounting the wheel - and you're done.
The Spray Film puts down a tough rubber-like layer that protects the surface underneath. Once the film is on, Foliatec states the film will not be removed by a car wash and detergents do not affect it.
If you get tired of the color and want to try something else, the Spray Film easily peels off in little time. But the Spray Film is not just for wheels. It can be applied to other parts such as side mirrors and bumpers.
With a price of €49.95 in Germany, Foliatec's Spray Film is available in a wide spectrum of colors including black-mat, green-silkmat and
charcoal-metallic to name a few. Foliatec will demonstrate on April 28 the possibilities of Spray Film at Tuning World Bodensee 2012 in Friedrichshafen, Germany.

clear would be nice for those curb moments.

ttribe

Indeed...I am embarrassed to admit that I had a couple of curb "moments" on with the TL when I owned it. Interestingly, nothing with the current (bigger) car. Maybe I'm just more paranoid now.

Yeah I don't see how this is any different than Plasti dip. You can get it in different colours too.

KillerG

If I had an M5...

Maximum Paranoia for SURE.

KillerG

also, this sounds EXACTLY like plastidip.

Fun fact: plastidip can be mixed into a color of your choice, be bought in many new colors, be sprayed with plastidip flakes, and sprayed with new plastidip glossifier

shit blew my mind when i found out last month

Moog-Type-S

AKA plastidip

ttribe

Yeah, well, I was having a hard time admitting just how paranoid I am.

KillerG

Dude, I dont like parallel parking my corolla on public streets, lets not even get into the overprotective of owning a high end car like yours.

It boggles the mind because Ive seen Bugattis and S65s and 458s parked on commonplace public streets before... In parallel.

ttribe

Those folks have so much money they don't care. I don't fall into that bucket...not even close.

PyroDave

sounds like PyroDip... http://dipyourcar.com/shop/page/7?shop_param= beside those colors, you can get custom ones...

I'm in the process of plastic dipping my rims on my Explorer. I will post pics over the weekend.

MarbleGT

...and it's not $8 a can. ^^ Anxious to see the wheels.

I got a rock chip over the weekend on a drive with some buddies and re-plastidipped my lower valence and windshield surround. I used an entire can...made sure it was really, too thick!

Dang Autoblog tell us how you really feel about Foliatec's Spray Film.

"Because new wheels ain't cheap, and spray paint isn't permanent enough, Foliatec offers vinyl color in a can.

For only about $65 (plus shipping from Germany) a can, any kustom kar owner can get all fast-and-furious on their wheels, mirrors, bumpers, vinyl tops, dashboards, ex-girlfriends, etc. – pretty much anything metallic or plastic.

Foliatec says the "rubber-like coat" is fairly durable and protects whatever it covers. And when you tire of looking like a Vin-Diesel-wannabe, the street-racer "green silky matt" easily peels off to instantly return $500 to the resale value of your pocket rocket. Or choose one of the other two spray vinyl colors available: anthracite metallic and black matt. Either should last you well into your mid-20s"
