Dip the hood?

I was thinking about plasti dipping my hood, this stuff is literally like spray on vinyl for half the cost at least. Has anyone tried this? Do I need to do anything about the chips and nicks or will this stuff seal them and keep them from getting worse? I think that the hood will be pretty easy considering there arent any lines to tape, I would just have to tape off for the overspray. I think the hardest part would be an even coat over the entire hood. However, when plasti dip dries it conforms to the hood and dries in an even consistent layer, as claimed by the website, but who knows if this is true.
