Plasti- Dip'd Guitar?

[the rossness]

A few weeks ago, I picked up a Charvel Desolation Star (1 hum bolt on), with plans to upgrade just about everything. I have a new floyd, a tremol-no (for dive only), a BKP Miracle Man pickup.

I'm not sure what to do about cosmetics. At first I thought about wrapping the guitar with an automotive vinyl wrap. Now I'm thinking about painting the guitar with Plasti Dip. For those of you who don't know, Plasti- Dip is peelable spraypaint. Once the paint is dry, you can peel it right off whatever you painted -

Would this be a good idea as a project?

cool idea i don't see why not. This guys business is pretty ghetto though lol.

I posted the video as an example of what plasti dip is. I'm going to paint everything myself.

Seems really cool. I'm already considering doing it. I just wonder if it would deaden the guitar's sound.

Wouldn't you think he would take off the pickup rings and cover the pickups rather then go around the pickup rings? Seems kind of butcher.
I'm wondering the type of headache the guy gets from spraying that stuff with no mask on

I personally wouldn't do that after seeing my son dip his rims on his audi.

I would think it would have a bit of a negative reaction to the tone

Speaking from experience don't. It killed sustain and started coming off about a month after I did it and not in a cool way at all.

yep
i wouldnt put it on anything actually.

used it for a number of marine applications, and it sucks. terribly. especially on wood.

total junk IMHO....doesnt really even work for what it's supposed to all that well.

it's a quick fix at best. not a guitar finish i would choose though!
