"Dip" your bike: Alternative to traditional paint, and rever

One of the latest trends here in Tx, is to paint your car/bike/watercraft, using a product that has been around for quite some time, but now with colors, and various enhancements.
Plasti-Dip: A REMOVABLE spray-on product that dries to a tough film, that protects what is underneath from the environments. When you want to remove it, simply PEEL IT OFF. Yet it is tough, and can withstand pressure washing.
A lot of my Houston riding friends on another forum, are having a go at this, and many are pleasantly surprised with the results, and durability, on thier track bikes, cars, and trucks.
( I will be more than likely using this as a whole, on my long term project bike, when it comes to paint. Being an R.C. flyer, I have used plasti-dip on some of my radio electronics, and tools in the garage. I can vouch for excellent protection, AND minimal prep, with ease of reversing, or applying a new coat, after the old layer did its job) same product, but with new colors, and other enhancements.
