there is a blue subaru just like the one pictured above that i see often parked where i work, and it is a dirt magnet. with the bad weather we have been getting that car is often more grey/brown than blue

i have nothing against the product, but i do have an issue with the unfortunate poor results from DIYers doing it wrong. again, near where park my car, there is this x5 that is supposed to be matte black done with plastidip, but you can the coating was poorly applied so you can see stripes left behind from each pass of the can or spray gun... honestly it looks like a 2-tone black/grey zebra
