👀 WHO WANTS TO BE OUR FIRST PEELCLEAR TEST VEHICLE?

We’re looking at bringing a completely different type of paint protection to The Rocker Shop — and we want to test it on a front end first!

We’re talking:

🛡️ Hood
🛡️ Front fenders
🛡️ Front bumper

And NO — this is NOT Plasti Dip. 😂

Peelclear is a professional spray-applied, removable automotive coating system designed to protect your actual paint from things like rock chips, scratches, road debris and UV exposure.

Think of it more like spray-on PPF rather than Plasti Dip.

Because it's sprayed instead of installed as a sheet of film, there are no PPF seams or film edges, and it can conform to all the curves, body lines and openings of the front end.

When you're eventually ready to remove it? It PEELS OFF.

Before we officially offer this as a service, we want to get some hands-on experience with the system and document the entire process.

🔥 We're looking for ONE test vehicle.

You cover the materials, we'll heavily discount the application/labor, and we'll film everything from prep → spraying → finished product → testing.

We're looking for a clean vehicle with good existing paint for the first one.

If you've been considering PPF or just want to protect the front of your vehicle, this could be a pretty cool opportunity.

👇 Comment PEEL or message The Rocker Shop if you're seriously interested.

If this stuff performs the way it's supposed to... you may be seeing a LOT more of it around here. 👀

Think hydrographics are just for car parts? 👀

Check out this wood grain hard hat we dipped! 🔥🪵

We can hydro dip all kinds of stuff — automotive parts, helmets, hard hats, trim pieces, plastics, metal, fiberglass and plenty of other oddball projects.

If you’ve got something and you’re wondering “Can you dip this?” — send us a picture. Chances are, we can. 😎

📩 Message The Rocker Shop for custom hydrographics!

A little old-school style for a ’39 Ford Coupe 🔥

This fiberglass dash insert got transformed with a wood grain hydrographic finish — giving it that classic look without using real wood.

Hydrographics aren’t just for cups and gun stocks. If it can be prepped, painted, and dipped… there’s a good chance we can customize it. 👀

Got something weird you want dipped? Drop your projects below. Let me see what you got that We could dip 😎😎

🚨 BUDGET PAINT JOBS FOR OLDER RIDES 🚨

Have an older car or truck that’s still solid, but the paint is faded, peeling, or simply showing its age?

The Rocker Shop is looking for older vehicles that aren’t in horrible condition and mainly need fresh paint—not a complete restoration.

Budget paint jobs starting at $3,500 out the door for qualifying vehicles!

✅ Same-color repaint
✅ Exterior painted and cleared
✅ Minor dents and imperfections included
✅ Perfect for drivers, cruisers and project cars
✅ A fresh, clean finish without restoration-level pricing

This package does not include major bodywork, rust repair, color changes, door jambs or disassembly-heavy repairs. Those services can be quoted separately.

Every vehicle must be inspected and approved before scheduling. Send us clear pictures of both sides, the front, rear, roof and any damaged areas for consideration.

📍 The Rocker Shop — Battle Creek, Michigan
📲 Message us to see if your vehicle qualifies!

Keithley Kustomz Update

Effective July 1st, Keithley Kustomz will be temporarily closed through September 1st.
This isn't a vacation—it's an investment in the future of our company.

We're using this time to restructure our operations, improve our processes, update equipment, and refine the overall customer experience from the moment you contact us until the day you pick up your vehicle.

Our goal has always been to build more than repaired vehicles—we want to build a shop that delivers the quality, communication, and craftsmanship our customers deserve.

While the shop is undergoing this transition, I (Austin Keithley) will still be taking on select smaller jobs, including both insurance and cash-pay work. If you have a smaller repair or project you'd like me to look at, don't hesitate to reach out.

Also the dream team we have are still with us. They are a part of the plan as well 😎

We truly appreciate everyone's continued support and patience during this transition. We look forward to reopening on September 1st stronger, more efficient, and ready to serve you better than ever.

Sometimes you have to step back to build something even better.

We truly love all of you. ❤️
