Lmao looks like mine the first time, jagged and uneven. Then I learned to coat, coat again fast, then peel tape before it dries. Looks good now

Where could I get my hands on some of this stuff? I don't remember seeing it at any store I've been to. I checked out their web site but I would rather go to a store than have it shipped.

Could you spray some kind of clear coat on this slightly past the edge so that it wont peel up. I wanna make mine permanent. Also if I spray automotive clear coat over it. Will it blend in with the clear already on my car. Don't want it drying and looking funny.

You don't need 4 coats, do like 2 and peel it off before it dries.

I dipped mine without taking them off. Just light costs do it doesn't run. Taking them of is prolly easier tho.
