dip paint

Dip paint is a removable plastic paint that can be applied very easily to your wheels, mirrors, trims or even the complete bodywork of your car.

After application, the paint forms a film that can be easily removed after drying without leaving residue. Due to this characteristic, dip ink is also known as liquid vinyl.

It can be used on indoor and outdoor surfaces and has a lifespan of 5 years. You can double the longevity by applying a layer of protective 3k nail polish.

Autocubo is the official distributor of the Pinta Dip brand in Braga.
