Plasti-dipped door handles

I have heard of some people do it, only worry is how does it hold up. Besides my grill and handles all the chrome is gone.

I bought the chrome ABS door handle covers, stripped the chrome using the bleach method, then primed and plastidipped them. Holding up well so far. Look good to IMHO, fattens up the handles, gives them some meat.

I can attest that the spray on stuff isn't terribly robust

Hmm might need to try it and see how it works

I did all the chrome on our H2, I have pics under "No more chrome bling" the key with the handles is making sure you get the dip behind also. Completely in case the handle.

I did my mirrors and door handles, door handles lasted a week. Stripped it off the handles and scuffed with sandpaper, cleaned well and painted them with Rustoleum rattlecan spray bedliner. Looks like they will hold up real well, I may spray over them with flat clear to make a smooth finish. I did use this for my roof trim over a year ago and it still looks great. I'll do my mirrors when they start peeling. I'm not pleased with Plastic Dip over chrome. I also used Plastic Dip on a chrome wheel and it peeled immediately.
