These videos is what puts you above the rest guys! I look forward to every notification...
Thank you very much! We always try to put out great videos that help anybody learn a new trick!
Dude, thank you so much for making all those Videos, they helped me so much!
I am so glad they have been helpful!
Thank Brian was waitting for a vidio like this the thout did X my mind but it better to see some one that know what they are doing to teach how its done..Thank u!
Marcos a. Contreras glad I was able to help
I'm doing a carbon fiber project that has a small blow out that needs fixed. Since I can't match the pattern up I decided to repaint it and start over. When you have to start over and paint the base color again do you strip the existing paint and film off or just paint over the existing base and film? Love the tips and tricks videos! Thanks!
After doing the second dip for the touch up, are you using an air brush to blend things? Thank you for the videos.
Do u have to clear coat in between dips
Your first vid I ever saw gave me the confidence to do this, I have my parts scuffed and painted, the film cut and taped and now watching what could go wrong with activation I'm nervous to do it.
Yes there is plenty of things that can go wrong but keep watching the videos and we can certainly help you out!
Do you have a video on how to do the touch ups?
Nice video! I have to do this from time to time, too. Depending on the brand of tape there is a risk of pulling tiny parts of the film off, sometimes. There is a nice hint: Soak the tape in the rinse station or just manually with water and it will fall off by itself. No risk of further damage. #successfulDipsEverybody 👋😉👍
Yes that is a great tip! Also when it does pull off tiny dots like that it usually means that you are under activated with your activator being applied to your film.
Liquid Concepts, LLC Thanks for your reply, Bryan. Unfortunately I have a lot of pics showing underactiveted parts, because every fiml behaves a little different. Recently I found out about the complexity of wood grain. I guess in the US you would say, it can be a "pita"!? 😁 Different brands, film thickness and the amount of ink sometimes keep me busy. #800grid 👋😉👍
West-Berlin-Customs very true! If only every film could be the same😜 Would save us all a TON of time and headache
Indeed - but the technology is developing and materials improve. Did you know about a film not needing any activator anymore? I've seen a video on insta a few minutes ago. Very interesting stuff.
West-Berlin-Customs yes we have actually played with it a little but havent seen the consistency with it enough
If you have rebasecoat,do you spray over the old film,or strip it somehow?Also,I still can't find a video on what happens after the dip(how to rinse,etc)Do you have one?Thanks for sharing!
Most of the time you can just scuff with a red scotch brite pad and then paint over the existing dip that was bad. As for the rinsing, we are still working on getting that video into production at the moment.
@@LiquidConceptsUSA Thanks for the reply,look forward to the rinse video!
Hi Brian, I am a newbie in this field , what was the paper you used in this video was a grease proof paper as used in cooking ?
Thanks for the tips videos they are great John
It was a regular piece of roll paper that we cut out to have that shape and then tape around the sides of it. Regular printer paper will work as well.
@@LiquidConceptsUSA thank you
do you primarily use white as your base and what paint do you suggest?
It really depends on the film. For camo we typically go with beige, tan, or white.
What seals it on repair? How does a Browning company seal camo , is the film seal itself when dry? Or does it need a Matt clear?
All hydrographics needs to have a clear coat applied over the top of it for protection.
i cant hydro dip well i know it takes practice but ive done 2 dips with homemade activator because cant buy activator in my country the first dip worked but the pattern deformed and just made spots and the second dip didnt even stick to the item
What are you using as the base coat?
I have a question on your table top .What surface is that ? Teflon?
Just curious .
This is HDPE which is the same as cutting board material.
Perfect explanation visually you get it. I need to do a shot gun fix.
Yes hopefully this will help you out on the shotgun!
Why does it seem when I try and touch up small spots. Like you do with the brush and activator it seems like it rinkals the hydro dip. Thanks
You could be getting too much activator on your brush when you are dabbing it
With the activator does it matter what the tip size of the hvlp sprayer matter?
Yes, it needs to be 1.2 to 1.4 for optimal results.
What is the secret to keeping the tape from sticking to the dipped area. When I put tape on the new dipped area to redip the blowout area it pulls it off...
If the tape is pulling the dip off, then you have an activator problem. You need to make sure your activating the film correctly so it will bond correctly to the paint.
How do you prep surface?
Most of the time we sandblast, primer, paint, dip and then clear coat.
Why does touch up shine differently?
How do you prevent wrinkles I keep getting wrinkles
Are they before the activator or after the activator?
@@LiquidConceptsUSA before the activator, I put the sheet in the water I get the air bubbles out, but it still leaves wrinkled then after I dip it shows the wrinkles. Thank you
It went from a white spot to a black spot. LoL
Yep!
Tryna dip an entire car?
We could if we wanted to but I think we will stick to wrapping cars and dipping smaller objects you cant wrap! lol
Actually I have a super challenging wrap
