Belt line and light bezel painted

Decided to Plastidipped the beltline after trying to wrapped them and didn't like how it came out.
The light bezel have been removed sanded and painted at body shop. The next project is to remove door handles and have them painted as well in black.

for the belt line did you just tape it off and spray or did you remove it first?

I taped first then covered the panels with plastic cover. I did 5 coats 10 mins apart, I then did a clear gloss over it 2 coats. Make sure not to overlap tape on chrome.
