Car used in video:
2018 Chevrolet Camaro SS 1LE
This was really fun and just like paint the prep makes everything happen the way you want...
This could easily be done on endless number of car parts. From under the hood, to body pieces, to interior pieces.
Great little touch of detail and not too bad to do. Plus, supposed to last as good as paint would.
I recommend anyone to try but practice on a couple things before doing the car parts...

This was fun to do! Results are not entirely perfect but work for me. This was my first attempt at doing this.
It's not always shiny side down. That can and does very easily vary by brand and even style or design. The easiest way to determine which side goes down into the water is to get your finger tips wet and touch a scrap piece of your film. The side of the film that sticks to your finger ALWAYS 110% of the time goes down into the water. The side that does not stick to your finger tip goes up.
Another project to try! Thanks for the video. 😎👌
It was fun I look forward to doing it again
That looked really cool,I always wondered how they did it,thanks for the extra tips,intake and fuse box looks awesome,like the rest of camaro,cheers,best wishes,frm,Auckland,New Zealand,
Awesome i have always wanted to try that maybe ill have a hydrodip station in my new shop
cool vid
Hammerdown Motorsports yea it wasn’t too bad. I know they make actual workstations for it.
Nice job! Love that print :)
Yeah hear no see no speak no skulls are awesome
@@OnlinecarshowNet1 We've done a few of those over some chromed hard hats :)
Very cool I almost bought a 10K Hydro tank 6' to start a business doing this. backed out when I would have needed another 10K for a spray booth. Would have loved to do this but just too much to get started
Yea to do on a professional level might take a serious setup
You don’t need a spray booth. I built my own and the results compare to a high end spray booth and cost around 800$ because I did all the design and fabrication in house.
Very cool looks like a good time but I’m a little scared to try this myself 😬
dont be max i tried it its pretty safe
Just attempted this and the result came out better than I expected! Followed your vid step by step. Thank you! Mine wasn’t perfect either but in the end it turned out better than I thought for the first time.
Yeah and it’s fun to do. I had a blast shooting this video. Congrats man.
This is awesome ✌️️
Would it stick without primer coat?i try on raw tin surface but didn't work
Wow very cool. I did not know this existed.
Yes looks very good in the end too
Fantastic！
Looks pretty badass..... thanks for sharing.
Its fun as hell to do. Looking forward to doing another video in near future hydrodipping some parts on the new ZR1
Thank You for taking time to make this video, streight and to the piont, The way it should be , I will be checking in with You on occasion, Time, Time,? Where does it Go....
It looks awesome. You did a great job.
🙂👍🏻👍🏻
Ian Y Gath thanks. Yea it seems like an art. It takes a little practice to do perfect
OnlineCarShow Once you learn all the little tricks of the trade it’s likely a walk in the park. 🙂
Awesome job
Came out awesome man. I want to do parts to my Infiniti g37 coupe. Any tips you can offer a beginner? World appreciate any feedback
Seems pretty EZ to do! Thanks
I've seen people apply clear coat is that recommended for outdoor car parts? For longevity etc..
Man I have this sweet tacoma... I'll let you do this to every plastic part under the hood. Lmao
😂👍
That’s so awesome! Pretty good video too man, I’m gonna try this soon, I thought this was some super complicated thing, lol got dudes selling PRE dipped csr parts for a ton of money lol like why would I pay that much for that part with hydro on it. So thanks
Practice will make it easy. Just always go down and never back up. I used an old disc to practice. Once you do once it will raise your confidence and see any mistakes. It’s fun to do tho! 👍👍
Nicest Camaro mod ever seen.
Was a blast to do too 😬
Nice job! Looks really good
Thank you. I’m happy with results. Little imperfections just let others know you did the work 😂
What imperfections? It was designed that way
Yea there was a little stretch I could have eliminated. I should have cut the sheet to mouth of container rather than part. But I’m very happy with results. 👍👍
That is bad to the bone! Great job on giving the details.
Thanks man
New subscriber!!!🔥🔥🔥🔥
Thank you man. I try to answer comments when TH-cam sends notification. Let me know you have any questions 👍👍
I have a manifold cover for my F-150 and wanted to do this at home myself, do you know of any issue with heat in the engine bay affecting the dipped parts?
Also, now to figure out a container big enough, and a good way to get hot water into it.
Make sure water in container is about 90 degrees when doing. The engine bay heat will give more issues with paint than the dip. I’ve had no issues with dipped parts so far. You need any help you can contact me direct through Instagram or email james@onlinecarshow.net. I’d practice on something first. I had a little stretch but I explained why. Cut the dip sheet to the container and not the part. That way it has no where to stretch to.
Once you spray the activator it starts stretching
Cool video bro
Thank you and thanks for watching 🙏🙏
I have a double din radio frame new do i really need ro sand it dow and prime it or can i just do like how it is ???
Don’t think it sticks to plastic but not expert. Also the dip sheet is one color usually black. The background color is actually the base paint coat. Plus you need to clear coat after dipping to protect...
@@OnlinecarshowNet1 thank man 👍👍😎
Sweet... do they have carbon fiber sheets
Yes it’s the hardest to do too 😬. Need to have almost no stretch.
Awesome job man. My only question is, do you have to paint the item first? Or can you just dip plastic or a piece of metal?
hello good job looks great .
how long does the film last in the engine bay with all heat and other elements inside?
I have headers too so extra heat. It holds up fine. The hydrodip has painted surface on bottom and a clear coat of top. So it’s more will the paint take it than the hydrodip. With that said I’ve learned that the primer is very sensitive to heat. So I think the trick is finding the good primer and paint on top
@@OnlinecarshowNet1 thank you
Looks pretty fucking good to me
Yeah still have it on the car. If I ever do the dip again I might redo it but I’m satisfied
Bad ass !!
Thank you 🙏
Don't tape edges.make tiny little cuts around edges if you tape you get bubbles and wrinkles. Wet fingers sticky side down
Use some making tape as wide as box and drag that across to clean water.:)
Great idea thank you 🙏
Three minutes was way to long before spraying the activator. That's the biggest reason for so much stretch. One minute wait if your water is between 80-90 degrees F. I'm surprised after three minutes it didn't just fall apart on you.
Well I'm a hydro Dipper but I'm having problem with my carbon it's like the carbon is real light like it's faded why is that
Mine was a little lighter too. I’m not sure but I blamed stretch and not cutting the film the container lid instead of size of what I’m dipping.
It also seems like you almost have to push it toward the film to stop streaming ch completely. But I haven’t tested that. Was just observations
Try another row of tape over the water and sides of tank about a cm away from the film tape. Saves cutting it to the size of the tank and you can control the size of the stretch.
Did you wash it good after dipping ?? Many can forget that step, and that leaves a coating on it which u don't want. Then clear coat when done:)
Don’t touch my truck screeeereret reesst
ok thanks for mentioning how important it is to tape the edges: otherwise it stretches the design.
Also make sure the dip paper is same size as container lip. That minimizes stretch even more
The reason I’m not a fan of the tape is that if you don’t splice at least the corners you could introduce air bubbles when dipping. But splicing the corners adds more stretching. Why I didn’t concentrate on it. I found having the lip of container same size as dip paper is same concept and works a lot better with less stretch.
OK, I want to try ! Where can you buy the different films? Thanks for the cool video
You can search for hydro graphics or hydro dip graphics or hydro dip sheet
Just practice a lot before doing. Seems like it’s a lot like painting though. Better prep equals better results
Another recommendation would be to leave the final Clear coat up to a professional painter take it into macco with 50.00 or something. That way you get a good mirror finish at the end
Carbon fiber and smaller designs are harder because of stretch. But I almost got the stretch down to nothing. I think if I would have cut to fit mount of container better it would have come out perfect.
And someone recommended to me when I was buying equipment to by a Rubbermaid container for dipping. I ended up using a cooler I’m throwing away. But thought I’d pass that on
here's some gloves you should use, as he continues to not use them xD
Yeah not a fan of gloves. 😂😂👌
I hate to be that guy, but are you doing the right precautions? When I've seen this process elsewhere, it's been clear the activator chemicals are pretty nasty and also the stuff sticks to skin.
I don't know what you're using, and maybe your kit uses different chemicals that are safe for you and the environment, but if it's not, I'd urge you to use gloves, and probably also best to bag up the reject bits and treat them as contaminated waste when you're clearing the tank.
Yeah probably isn’t good for your hands being oil based paint basically. It is being deluded in a gallons of water though. But cleaning my hands was not fun. So probably a good idea 💡 👍👍
Do you have to clear after how long will it last
Yes clear coat afterwards is a must for longetivity. It’s basically like paint when activator hits it. Id say it’s life is more dependent on paint life rather than hydrodip.
Yeahhhhh so youre not supposed to tape the edges, doesnt let the film form and move the way it wants to in the water, it restricts it...........soooo yeahhhhh
This is a talk show
Sorry I take any criticism and always strive to improve. Appreciate you watching and thanks.
Your political add offends me. I will no longer watch your videos.
Not even sure what your talking about. Apologize if I offended you. Thanks for feedback and have a good week.
I don’t control the ads TH-cam puts in my videos. 😬. I went back and watched this video. I didn’t put anything political. Sorry for their propaganda ads. Please understand that’s not me.
@@OnlinecarshowNet1 you dont haft to apologise.. screw them.. ppl offended by their shadows. Half retarded ppl.
This is awesome ✌️️
Thank you 🙏
