I repainted a Kiddy Crotchrocket (600 Honda 4) that'd been Plastidipped.
It was flat blackout with some messy orange swooshes.  Frikken ugly!

  That crap is very tenacious.  I found nothing took it off...tried every
chemical I  could.....I finally gave up on trying to sand it all completely
off...I just gave up....I used a high build epoxy primer over the crap I
couldn't sand completely off then painted any how, hoping for the best.....
So far (a full year) my do over is fine.

  That stuff is pretty amazing... But be certain if you choose to put it on
because it won't   come off easily.
