    Yeah, I think you need the sprayer. The rattle can option doesn't have the same quality Dip, takes longer and looks worse.

    Dipyourcar.com sells "car kits" that come with the electric Wagner sprayer that the DYC dude uses in the videos. The kits cost like 350 - 400 bucks, but that includes 3-4 gallons of PD and the sprayer.

    Paint requires a lot more attention and knowledge vs dip. Dip is user friendly and still a lot cheaper. I would never paint my car myself... however, I would have no worries about using a sprayer to dip it.

    Ive seen that. Would never spend that much for something I'd end up taking off. But I get why some people would.

    lol, I know man. I was being sarcastic.

    I didn't read the whole thread, but has anyone mentioned, or heard of this place? Seen a couple of their cars in Stillwater a few days ago. http://www.twincitiesdipping.com/
