Default Endura bumper with plastidip or elastiwrap

Has anyone ever ever sprayed plasti dip or elastiwrap on an endura bumper? I am talking about using a spray gun. Just checking to see if this is a solution to support keeping the finish flexible and not cracking. I know you can go thru a whole lot of effort with paint, but really want to know if anyone has experience with either of the two mentioned products with endura bumpers.

thx
Dean

Good idea. You can buy enough high quality Avery or 3m vinyl wrap to do that for about 60.00 - 70.00 I bet

It'd would be worth trying. Totally non destructive.. The Plastidip would be a little more involved in that you'd use a gun and tape things off..
I'd try vinyl first.

I'm going to try this on some small parts first myself soon to get a feel for what it looks like and how its done. I've watched a number of videos and read up on this. It's a valid option...

I have used the clear elastawrap a few times on my wheels. It helps keep the powder coat from chipping and the polished part from getting all water spotted and what not. I've just used it from a rattle can and with moderate to decent success.
