Just did my DRZ wheels. I doubt they'll hold up but I'll know after this weekend.

i have question. say i did on my paint... would it come right off also? i have a very small idea id like to do but scared to try it lol
It'll come right off paint without damaging it. You can youtube it also, theres a video of a guy peeling it off his hood.

However, if you plan on taping off stripes or something... Dont bother. Plasti-dip doesnt do well with tape and will peel off along with it

It is very easy to remvoe from a smooth painted surface. Ive done multiple things with it, and it all peels off noproblem. Key is to put multiple coats, 3-5 on, so that way its thick enough to peel off.

The Emblems are very cool, I watched another video where they did the truck emblems and thought it was pretty interesting.
