So after much debate, I decided to peel the plastidip off the tahoe. I was impressed by how easy it was to peel after being on the truck for about a year. Held up through snow, salt, mud, tools, and the woods. Left the paint underneath in great condition!

Remember how many cans?

35 cans, but i recommend using a gun. I've dipped about 10 cars now with the gun. The quality is way better and it comes out as smooth as a wrap. You can even use a wagner paint gun if you wanted. Would take 4-5 gal of dip through a gun.

I used dip coat, but probly a quick detailer would work as well. It gives the dip almost a shine.
