How is cleaning the dip? I did my emblem gold and it seems it never gets clean to the point from when I first did it.

Super easy, no drying needed as dip doesn't spot up like regular paint. And to be honest, I only cleaned my car with soap and water once the entire time it was solid blue, and that was only because I was doing this. Just spray it off with water and 90% of the brake dust and grim just rinses right off without even scrubbing it down.

How thick are the coats? Can you feel the edges from where you taped off to paint the black and white, are they very noticeable?

Just thick enough to cover the base color. You can feel it but it's not so much a edge. The dip just bonds to the other dip so they kinda form one surface if that makes any sense.

It makes sense haha. I was just asking because I have done masking like that with paint and it leaves a noticeable edge after a couple of coats. It seems that plasti dip acts differently; does that seem like the case?

So true. I have my wheels dipped, and all I have to do to clean them is just spray them with only water and bamm there clean. What a great product.
