My dabble in hydro-dipping
- Thread starter localloon
- Start date
Tried my headlight switch sourround tonight and turned out quite tatty, loads of tiny air bubbles between the film and the part and a few creases, I think the water was a little too warm and I either didnt put enough activator on or I was too quick to dip!..... live and learn 
Even that looks passable though Dave, and the creases are underneath and out of sight.
Nah......if you look closer on the 2nd pic you can see all the tiny bubbles......it will be flatted and done again until im happy with it
yep, i see it. Sure you'll get it right Dave. I've got the kit on my watch list, just can't afford it yet. Never been this skint in ages
I like this so much. Guess what i'm buying when i get back in the black
Its great fun, and if you cock it up....you just flat it back and start again until you get it right :thumbup:
Will do matey - just need a plan of what I want to do first. It'll come down to whether I go for carbon on Tiger's roof next month...
I'll second that, especially having now seen them in person.
Christ I can see some money getting spent on this
I believe that the patterns are limited only to what the printers are willing to produce, (which is probably limited by what they can sell in reasonable quantity). Here's one supplier:

I've not bought anything from them so this is not a recommendation, just an example.

I am using their activator spray which works as it should! Theres many suppliers out there though
