Yo! I've done this before and instead of mixing it so thoroughly, you can also rotate the piece as its being dipped, this exposes the outside to different paints and will give a more "stock camo' appearance vs. the mottled hunting camo you made. Both are nice, I'm just saying there are options. Also I recommend a hair-dryer for knockin off the water. Save your lungs lol.
The pistol came out really nice I will post videos on it after Christmas As I am practicing with my videos and getting better equipment than just my phone
I had a fan I hanged them in front of to dry also but sometimes if the paint gets in a crevice it will leave a puddle and you wanna blow it out or it will dry like that
As previously said, this is pretty unconventional... But very well done man. Will be trying this for sure. Glad you made this. Gladder that I found it.
This is pretty good! I stumbled on your video now I'm going to try this! I would have never thought about hydro dipping until I saw this! Great job! 👌🏼
That’s look great bud! Don’t listen any negative comments or give a damn what anyone thinks! I can tell your a good honest man and I hope you take your channel and skills to the top of the food chain! Now I’m going to do another myself lol addictive and results are amazing considering what we use to do it!
Thank you this was my first hydro dipping with spray paint and surprised myself with the results and got lots of feedback mostly positive but some negative. So I plan on doing more with the spray paint and maybe try out some hydro graphics film.
Browns and whites are more common in natural environments than greens or blacks. This camo is more effective than others I’ve seen. Sure might not look “pretty” but it’ll do its job better than the rest
Man, this looks so much better than that crap people are doing spray painting over mesh as a pattern. I've been wanting to do a camo paint job on one of my rifle's for a while. I think your method is the best way to go about it. Im going to do a few practice pieces first, then my least favorite pellet rifle. If I get it right and I'm confident, Then I'll do my good rifle. Curious how thick the paint winds up after this method. Do you feel a new texture made by the paint afterwards?
If you don’t clear coat it you will feel texture. But after a couple coats of clear coat the texture is gone and it’s all smooth. I recommend using a flat clear coat that’s non yellowing and don’t overdue each coat just do a couple thin coats not too thick cause it will start to yellow I’m going to be doing some more camo hydro dipping soon and play with different shades of color
Hey man, this is great as long as the piece is removable... (i.e. Eotech hoods, tac-light bodies, mags, etc... but it's VERY difficult to camo-dip a part that also has working parts or insides where you DO NOT want paint. For example, I use the mesh and spray method for my AR-uppers because I DO NOT want spraypaint in the channel where the BCG or charging handle goes (and for God's sake not the barrel). So you kinda have to be specific on what looks good vs. what is SAFE for the firearm.
@@ralphralpherson9441 I started off with stripped lower just taped off where I didn’t want the paint to go it didn’t even get on the inside. Then for the upper it was a complete upper but I took the handgaurd off and dipped it first then took the bcg out and taped off where no paint could get inside the receiver only outside.
Definitely did a good job , no need to be nervous . I say that but I’ve been practicing to do a podcast and it’s scary as fuck haha but as men we do things that are scary to challenge ourselves .
@@brena3582 a good prime and clear coat will stop the chipping unless your banging it around all the time but luckily when it’s camo you’ll probably never notice.
did yhe paint mess with any assembly problems on the AR lower receiver? thinking of getting min done but worried it might mess up the threads or the insides when assembling it
I taped up the hole where the trigger goes in. And I did have to do a little cleaning before I clear coated it like the pin holes and the thread I cleaned up a bit with a pick. Now the tigger was catching a bit I kept having to force reset with my finger but I fixed the issue by taking the trigger out and cleaning it up around the pinholes on the inside. If you watch my 10.5” AR47 video that is actually the completed pistol with parts from this video.
Well of course but the full pistol came out pretty good actually I’ll post a video on it soon I think it’s in some of the short videos and in the intro of some of them
Did anyone else how the paint in the bucket is totally different, after he returns from his phone dying? Just saying. Can anyone confirm that this actually works.
Pretty durable I put a couple coats of Matt clear coat and I kept it in my work truck tossing it around a lot with the tools in my backseat. I actually sold it to my buddy here recently about a month ago.
I think I paid 15 to do that You would have to pay for the hydrographics and the spray would cost around $60 I just looked up a cheap camo kit. And it was $69
Nope I'll spent the $80 to get it coated the lower upper and mags and barrel and they put upper back together that way your tolerances are not off I bet your safety has a stiffness like no other
Everything was fine no Tolerances were off not much paint got on the inside and any hole was cleaned out before installing anything. Safety selector feels just like any other.
At first i was thinking no way this will work or look good. Pleasantly suprised. Always cool to see the creativity people have
Thank you that was my first time trying it other than practicing on an a2 grip and heat shield right before

That’s unorthodox, but surprisingly effective.
Don’t discredit yourself at the end brotha! This is a great video. I am going to try to do my first this week.

I would have to use a small fan for drying my lungs ain't what they used to be lol, great job by the way

6:26 ahh that looks badass!!!

Check out my last video is has the finished pistol
Sweet job man really cool looking it’s different but still looks like cammo you’d see somewhere for sale!
Check out some of the other videos and you will see the full pistol in the intro but will post a video on it soon

@@wildriderz_bw I doubt it. Stop ruining your guns
@@il9861 check out the side charging AR47 video
record with your phone sideways and you will have a full screen instead of blank and black spaces on sides of your content
I have started doing that
That’s 🔥 my man!
Definitely did a good job , no need to be nervous . I say that but I’ve been practicing to do a podcast and it’s scary as fuck haha but as men we do things that are scary to challenge ourselves .
Thanks man
Gnarly, dude 😎
Thanks for the video. Looks great!
Great job bro, keep it up!
You should try doing the sponge method it works good too other than that looks good man
Thanks man. Please subscribe
Nice job!
Pretty slick!
Holy shit that's badass.
I posted a video on it finished the other day. Please like and subscribe
What about all the paint in the threads of your lower? Do you clean it out? Seems like to me that all your pins and so forth isn’t going to fit now.
Yessir I did with a pick but if you don’t wanna pick it out just tape the threads
And the pin holes I just pushed a punch through each pin hole the size of each hole
I’m sure a wire brush would do the trick or perhaps a toothbrush and paint thinner depending on the paint
Very creative
Neat
Na you climbed that tree to paint it
Dig it man! Pretty cool looking
nice video brother, thanks
Bad Ass, I’m gonna try this! 🤟🏼
Pretty cool!
Like blowing Nintendo cartridges lol
Lol the nostalgia
Amazing bro. One question, the spray paint must be water based ir oil based? Is there any difference?
Oil base. Water base mixes with the water I think
Looks nice. Won't it eventually flake off or gum up tho?
That’s why you clear coat it
@@wildriderz_bw thank you for the info, I'll have to give it a try thank you sir.
@@brena3582 a good prime and clear coat will stop the chipping unless your banging it around all the time but luckily when it’s camo you’ll probably never notice.
@@wildriderz_bw thanks for the info. Appreciate it
Looks like marble
Cool! But I'm pretty sure that is a Magazine and not a lower receiver :-)
I did show the lower receiver in the video
I’m more impressed with your blowing skills if I’m being honest
Lmao
Will this work on polymer
did yhe paint mess with any assembly problems on the AR lower receiver? thinking of getting min done but worried it might mess up the threads or the insides when assembling it
I taped up the hole where the trigger goes in. And I did have to do a little cleaning before I clear coated it like the pin holes and the thread I cleaned up a bit with a pick. Now the tigger was catching a bit I kept having to force reset with my finger but I fixed the issue by taking the trigger out and cleaning it up around the pinholes on the inside. If you watch my 10.5” AR47 video that is actually the completed pistol with parts from this video.
It will be under bear creek Arsenal 10.5” 7.62x39 side charging upper
Dang, spray paint in a bucket of water...who knew?
Watching you explain this is like watching a polar bear cub trying to hump a football
Nice joke dude did your boyfriend teach you how to talk trash cause it’s pathetic
Drop the mag and never be able to find it, lol.
Lol glad y’all think it’s effective
It looks OK but you waste way to much paint with this process
Looks like takes a lot of paint like waisting a lot.
Hydrographic film in a camo pattern would probably be better
Well of course but the full pistol came out pretty good actually I’ll post a video on it soon I think it’s in some of the short videos and in the intro of some of them
Did anyone else how the paint in the bucket is totally different, after he returns from his phone dying? Just saying. Can anyone confirm that this actually works.
It works look at my video with the 10.5” ar47
Do a mag first like I did
How durable is the finish?
Pretty durable I put a couple coats of Matt clear coat and I kept it in my work truck tossing it around a lot with the tools in my backseat. I actually sold it to my buddy here recently about a month ago.
He sounds like a dying chiwawa
It'd be cheaper for you to buy the solution and the print you want then this
I think I paid 15 to do that You would have to pay for the hydrographics and the spray would cost around $60 I just looked up a cheap camo kit. And it was $69
Nope I'll spent the $80 to get it coated the lower upper and mags and barrel and they put upper back together that way your tolerances are not off I bet your safety has a stiffness like no other
Everything was fine no Tolerances were off not much paint got on the inside and any hole was cleaned out before installing anything. Safety selector feels just like any other.
Lol lower receiver?
I showed you how to do it I didn’t say what I was gonna use to show you the process. And I do show the lower receiver. You obviously do the same thing
How to make a nice looking ar look like absolute crap
Looks like caca water
Only the best. Have a sip
So we all know this is not a lower receiver. I kept waiting and only say a mag.
Hydrodipping is just phuking stupid. For anything.
