How many cans do you think it would take to do 4 17" rims. I am debating on doing this to my winter wheels but the cheapest price I can get on these cans is $16.99 a can, so I dont want to buy to much more than I need because of the cost...I hate the high prices of things in Canada...

You can do it in two cans but remember the thicker its applied the more durable it will be. Its also easier to remove. My car has 17" wheels and I used four cans.

It sticks to plastic just fine. Im not sure about something that flexes alot though. The plasti dip is rubbery and will stretch before tearing apart, so it may work well on atv fenders.

I roughed up my wheels with sandpaper before I applied the coats so it would stick better. Ive had it on for about 7 months and it still looks great

I've done all my blems in Plasti-dip, done the center caps on my wheels too. This stuff is awesome.

Would it work on the truck bed or the rocker panels? That would look pretty cool.
