Do you have any photos of how you taped everything off before applying the plasti-dipped the Tahoe and LT emblems? Or did you not even bother taping anything off and just sprayed and then removed from the paint?

You'd want to tape off a square about 2" larger than the perimeter of the letters and then use some plastic/masking paper for overspray. Otherwise, you'd never get it cleaned up to look good. Also, lay it on heavy inside the whole area you masked off. After it dries, remove the tape/masking paper, then peel it off any unwanted areas.

Here you go...

Just make sure you spray enough coats... 4 coats is enough to make it peel easy
