I used the Plasti Dip spray on the rear tag holder's chrome brow. Scuffed it up and painted it, no problem. The coating has held up through offroading and power washing and it matches the truck's black trim perfectly.

BTW, Caswell is selling Performix Plasti Dip, which you can buy at Home Depot or Lowes.
