- My first attempt at hydro dipping a guitar body. This started off as a first year production Eric Clapton guitar that a previous owner stripped the original finish off and tried to make a "crash" paint job but gave up. Thanks to my wife and kids for the help. It was a fun project and went suprisingly well for our first attempt. The guitar will be sprayed with a clear coat in the next few days and reassembled. Like any other paint project, the more time you spend in prep, the better the results. I scuffed the previous finish and applied a few coats of the Rustoleum 2K and I let that dry 48 hours before we attempted the hydro dipping. Hopefully this might help a few people who want to try it. It was a lot of fun and I would definitely do it again.

Great job thanks for the upload
Awesome job!
Wish my family was as interested in my guitar endeavors. Lol
I can't say my family is interested in my guitars, they were more interested in the hydro dipping process.
Looks good enough 🎉
It does look really cool. You helped me with both the tips and the type of paint to use. Thank you!
Glad to help
Do more of these videos...post weekly, you'll soon have enough viewers to pay for new guitars....EPIC DIP 🎸🔥
I wish I could :) Thanks for the kind words, I do plan on hydrodipping more this spring and summer.
@@samdeo5332 it's good stuff....do a primer on it to teach people...step by step...it's so darn good. Love it, thanks for replying, best to you!! PS, my antique olive strat would look cool with a dip, wouldn't you say? :)
She's beautiful!
Nice!!
Beautiful! I love the combination of colors. I hope you did an update. I’m gonna check your channel.☺️
Thank you, I'm actually planning on a follow up video shortly, stay tuned!
A couple questions… How long do you need to keep your guitar under the water? when I’ve taken objects out of the water little water bubbles remain. How do you get rid of those? Hairdryer ..fan? Any other technique? Just shaking didn’t seem to do it. Relying on sanding afterwards doesn’t really work since it sands off the color.
As soon as it's fully submerged and the paint on top is moved out of the way its removed. I would say from start to finish under a minute. I way the body around so extreme air drying you might say. Pretend you're directing traffic if that makes sense.
@@samdeo5332 ok I made one that looks good from afar but will try again

Does this not affect the tone of the guitar from warping or swelling?
Not from what I've noticed. It's not in the water that long, and it's already painted with a base coat, so it's not bare wood.
Im just wondering, did you put anything into the water as a medium? also how warm was the water?
I use magic Marble paint which doesn't require a medium in the water. I had the temperature between 65 and 70F.
@@samdeo5332 Thanks man, im looking forward to doing a project like that myself.
@slipstream2326 good luck and have fun, I actually redid this body and painted a couple more. I'll try to make a video to showcase them
@@samdeo5332 hey, its me again, ive been trying out some paints and none of them are working very well, could you please send me a link to the paint you used?
@@slipstream2326 sure things, this is the main site, magicmarble.com/ however you can get these colors as well as custom colors from here as well www.beachgirlzglitter.com/
water temp? I keep trying bu tthe paint keeps setting up on the water before i can swirl and dip. I started at 78 and went down to 68 but still happens..
Between 65 and 70F. Are you using Magic Marble or another brand?
@samdeo5332 another brand since magic marble is basically out of stock of all paints, i using the marabu easy marbel which is similar but i dont think is as good
@BoostedBlazer I tried a swirling paint from a local craft store and it gave me a lot of issues. There are a few places that may have magic marble in stocks, try beach girl glitter, they have custom mixed colors as well.
Can you please tell me what kind of paint you are using.
The base coat is a matte white rustoleum and the swirl paint is Magic Marble paint. Clear coat is a 2 part epoxy spray paint
Thanks you where a big help.
