Armor Can I still paint over Plasti Dip “Glossy”?

Post image

Hey! I accidentally bought Plasti Dip Glossy instead of the regular for my EVA foam armor pieces. Would I still be able to paint over this like with regular plasti dip?

I’d probably return it and get regular if you haven’t sprayed it on your foam yet. You can probably paint over glossy, but I bet it will take more time and coats because it will be slicker surface than standard dip.

That’s what I was thinking, I’ll probably just return it. Luckily I haven’t started yet. Thanks!

You could try lightly sanding the surface if you're worried about adhesion

Very true! Im just nervous about tearing the dip in the process.
