    Get them wrapped instead. It will last longer and look better.

    If you are just doing the corners 1 or 2 cans will suffice.

    I’ve done a fair number of dip projects. 1 can per wheel gives 4-5 coats. First coat is always a tack or “dusting” coat. Then you start laying it on thicker. Each bumper cap will probably take 1 can or so. My front and rear bumpers on my 2000 held up very well with 4 coats. Got rear ended, no tears. Took thousands of miles and bugs without chipping. Really took about 3-4 years for the dip to dry out and get a little more brittle for the rocks to start chipping away at it.

    I've used it on wheels and chrome bits in the past. Just don't expect it to come off easily after being on a vehicle for years. I did it on my wheels and when it came time to trade I needed to use acetone because the rubber had hardened so you couldn't peel it.
