Uso la resina epossidica perché è molto resistente e resiste a molti lavaggi. Una vernice spray alla fine si laverà o si cancellerà con l'uso. Grazie per la domanda!
You can certainly try, but the paint floating on the water dries *very* quickly, so a second dip might result in a bunch of paint clumps and glops sticking to the cup. You'll need to experiment to see if it works ok for you.
The outside of the tumbler was first sprayed with a couple layers of clear spray paint, then covered with a layer (or two, if necessary) of epoxy resin. I don’t put anything on the inside of the tumbler, but if some of the marbling paint gets inside the rim of the cup, it can be easily cleaned out with acetone. Then the entire finished tumbler gets washed with soap and water before it goes to a customer or given as a gift. I hope this answers your questions. Thank you!😊
I have these cheap paper towel holders that I can set the cups over the top and they just hang there upside down. You could do the same thing with a tall bottle like a wine bottle. This is what I mean by the paper towel holder amzn.to/3C0H68m
I love this technique. I am too afraid to try but this video made it look super simple. I wonder if this could be laser printed over that.. Also, is there a clear coat or anything that’s applied after?
Thank you! Please don’t be intimidated by hydro dipping. It’s really not difficult, and you can always clean off a bad dip with acetone, re-spray paint the tumbler and dip it again. It will definitely need to be sealed after dipping (after it’s completely dry) or epoxy resin won’t stick to it very well. So I spray with a couple coats of a clear spray paint, then resin over the whole thing. I’m not sure what you mean by laser printing over a dipped cup, so I don’t really know how to answer that question.
Thanks for sharing. Very informative. I was wondering if the epoxy you use is considered "food safe", if that makes sense? Ok to drink from? Is there a specific epoxy you use? Thanks again.
Thank you!! Most well-known epoxy resin brands available (KS Resin, CCDIY, Mr. Nola's Glitter, ALE (A Little Extra), and many others), are "FDA compliant" meaning that food can come in contact with them and cause no harm. In the case of tumblers, the double-walled stainless steel cup design means the resin on the outside of the cup never touches the drink. The only time it might is if the user decides to sip out of the rim of the cup (like a regular drinking glass), and even then it's not very much contact. But most folks use the lids with straws to avoid any contact at all. Hope that helps a little!
@@josephineacamporajoey1894 it’s plain old water from the garden hose. The Marabu marbling paints I used in the video are formulated to float on top of the water, so no mixative is necessary in the water.
No, I don’t believe so - it’s very sticky, oil-based paint. It could be stripped off with acetone, but otherwise stays on. Plus there’s resin over it in this case. If you decided to hydro dip and not cover with resin, you’d still want some sort of varnish like a brush-on or spray. Hope this helps somewhat! Thanks for the question 😊
I don't see why not 😊 technically, you can hydrodip almost anything - sneakers, wood plaques, rocks, etc - so probably a plastic tumbler would work fine!
The only thing I can think of is the water temperature. It should be on the cool side. And you need to shake the paints very vigorously then work really fast, use a generous amount of the paints, then skewer just a little vs over mixing. Keep trying - you’ll get it!
I usually clean it up with a strainer then put the top on the bucket and re-use it another time. If it’s too messy to re-use, I’ll still strain out any floating paint bits, then dump the water outside and refill the bucket.
@@roadtrip6476 no, I don’t add anything to the water, but I use Marabu Easy Marble paints - they’re designed to float without needing any additive. amzn.to/47wIMBc
I'm not sure! You could certainly try that and see what the effect is. I admit I've never tried to use the marble paints any other way than in water as a dipping color. Great idea -- thanks!!
Honestly, I started out hydro dipping by putting water in the bucket and letting it sit outside to warm up during the summer, but after a couple times that way, I got impatient and just used the temp of the water straight out of the hose. It’s well water so pretty cold. And I didn’t notice any change in the paints or in my results. My worst globbing occurred either when I waited too long after putting the paints in the water before I swirled and dipped, or when I’d used the water a couple times - even cleaning with a strainer doesn’t get all the residual paint out. Changing the water after every other dip helps a lot.
Sure! When I prep cups for hydro-dipping or lots of other tumbler techniques, I use Rustoleum 2X spray paint. Flat white is the most frequently used, but I also use other colors if it will help the design somehow.
I do sell some hydro dipped tumblers - I have one design that’s all greens and has a Swamp Thing decal that sells well for Father’s Day 🤷♀️ - but in general, no I don’t personally find them to be as popular with my customers as other styles. It is a good way, though, to create an interesting look without any glitter for the non-glitter folks😁
Do you know if you need to put a final sealant on if you want to wash it or put in dishwasher and don’t want the design to not come off. Or does the design not come off at all by itself?
I wouldn't consider washing it at all until you put a layer of epoxy resin over the entire cup. Then it can be hand washed. I wouldn't suggest putting it in a dishwasher cycle at all -- too much heat will probably ruin the cup and design. I know there is a particular type of Mod Podge that claims to be dishwasher safe, but I've never tried it. I suppose if you put a few layers of that over the hydro-dipped paint, it *might* be ok in the dishwasher, but I still wouldn't risk it.
Literally had to hammer my way into my first paints so I agree with your “special place in hell” comment until my son taught me it’s more about twisting the cap open then squeezing!
I think you do better if you slow down. no offense, You're like me, but when I watch guys do guitars they spend much time layering paint , swirl slowly and carefully (to not make mud) and dip slowly might help with coverage issues. Not criticism You're great slow down enjoy 😉
Thank you!! I have a *lot* to learn about developing a good hydro-dipping technique! I think one of the reasons I tend to rush is because when I hesitate for even a split second during the dip, I get an obvious (to me, anyway) glitch in the design, so my fix for that is to go faster. I need to develop a slow but very fluid dip and twist. 🙄🤞

So glad I'm not the only one that has trouble getting spray paint caps off! Great vid
Thanks! The struggle is real.
Those turned out gorgeous!!! Best ones I’ve seen!
Thank you!! 😊😊
I also struggled with the spray paint. Thank you so much for sharing!
i do too. i lift it out of the water and it just all gums up and wads up and doesn't stick to the tumbler. i don't know what im doing wrong?
Ty
These are some of the best Hydro Dipped cups I've seen. The more paint the better and the colors are beautiful. Thank you.
Thank you very much!
complimenti volevo sapere se alla fine li proteggi con uno sprai protettivivo o colla sprai... grazie

I appreciate the creative process. Just got my easy marble paints. So excited to try. Your video helped prepare me!
Thank you! Have fun with the easy marble paints!!!
really nice choices
Thank you!😊😊
Beautiful job! The neon was my fav 💛💚🧡 and you made me cackle when you said the person who invented the caps deserves a special place in hell 🤣🤣🤣
Thank you!!! Yeah, my hands did not appreciate the effort there... LOL!
You're reaction was amazing! I love the aqua, black, and silver one! They are all great though
Thanks!!
They turned out very beautiful!!
Thank you!!😊😊
they came out really pretty you did a wonderful job
Thank you so much!!😊🥰
I tried this a couple years ago, had lots of snot…. Thx for letting me know to drag to sides! I’ll try again!
Thank you!! Glad you found the video useful!😊
I really liked the small ones best
You did good. I'm just starting to learn
Thanks! Good luck - it’s fun!
Just watched and it looks so easy but my question is can you not use the same paint in bucket to dip twice??
You can certainly try, but the paint floating on the water dries *very* quickly, so a second dip might result in a bunch of paint clumps and glops sticking to the cup. You'll need to experiment to see if it works ok for you.
Hi so did you seal them with anything if so what was it also for the inside was it stained very nice video thanks

@@Luxinda ok thanks
I often beat the tops of my spray paint bottles on whatever is near by to get the caps off.
Oooh, that’s a tempting idea!! Thank you!
How are you setting them to dry without messing them up??
I have these cheap paper towel holders that I can set the cups over the top and they just hang there upside down. You could do the same thing with a tall bottle like a wine bottle. This is what I mean by the paper towel holder

Beautiful beautiful!! Nice job, just got mine and never did it before. What do you think about acrylic cups? Spray it first and try it
Thank you!! Yes, go for it! I think spraying first gives you the chance to add another color plus whatever Easy Marble colors you pick.
I love this technique. I am too afraid to try but this video made it look super simple.
I wonder if this could be laser printed over that..
Also, is there a clear coat or anything that’s applied after?

Do you add the paint on top of plain water or do you mix something with the water?
@@josephineacamporajoey1894 it’s plain old water from the garden hose. The Marabu marbling paints I used in the video are formulated to float on top of the water, so no mixative is necessary in the water.
Hi. I've glittered several cups with the tack it method. Do ihave to spray paint over the glitter before I dip it?
With a clear coat
Great question! I probably would, just to keep any glitter from coming off in the water.
Yes them caps are hard to open had to wait for my grandson to open it for me
Having a helper is definitely the way to go!
This is a great tutorial! Thank you!!
Thanks!
Does this paint peel off the cups?
No, I don’t believe so - it’s very sticky, oil-based paint. It could be stripped off with acetone, but otherwise stays on. Plus there’s resin over it in this case. If you decided to hydro dip and not cover with resin, you’d still want some sort of varnish like a brush-on or spray. Hope this helps somewhat! Thanks for the question 😊
Hi do you think I could use the acrylic tumblers
I don't see why not 😊 technically, you can hydrodip almost anything - sneakers, wood plaques, rocks, etc - so probably a plastic tumbler would work fine!
I have those same paints and I cannot drag them at all, they cling really bad to the stick...any suggestions?
The only thing I can think of is the water temperature. It should be on the cool side. And you need to shake the paints very vigorously then work really fast, use a generous amount of the paints, then skewer just a little vs over mixing. Keep trying - you’ll get it!
Do you seal your tumblers with anything after dipping?
Yes! I seal each cup I’ve dipped with 2 layers of Rustoleum 2X Matte Clear spray. However, any brand of clear spray will work. Thanks!
Can I only seal with rustoleam ?
What did youvdo with the water?
I usually clean it up with a strainer then put the top on the bucket and re-use it another time. If it’s too messy to re-use, I’ll still strain out any floating paint bits, then dump the water outside and refill the bucket.
Ok. But i have the problem. The paint i use is to heavy and sinds to the bottom. Do you prepare the water before the use.
@@roadtrip6476 no, I don’t add anything to the water, but I use Marabu Easy Marble paints - they’re designed to float without needing any additive.

@@Luxinda thank you
Can you sponge the marabu paint on a tumbler or only use as a hydrodip
I'm not sure! You could certainly try that and see what the effect is. I admit I've never tried to use the marble paints any other way than in water as a dipping color. Great idea -- thanks!!
said the same thing....hate those caps
Aren't they awful?!
@@Luxinda i had to get a set of pliars to get them off now.....
@@renavanslyke6593 great idea!!! I'll have to remember that next time.
What type of paint is that
Those are Easy Marble paints from Marabu:

What is the best water temp to do it at? Mine always gets globbed up before I dip!!
Honestly, I started out hydro dipping by putting water in the bucket and letting it sit outside to warm up during the summer, but after a couple times that way, I got impatient and just used the temp of the water straight out of the hose. It’s well water so pretty cold. And I didn’t notice any change in the paints or in my results.

Woow awesome you are talented , I love art I'm new friend 😍❤
Thank you!
Hi, can I ask what kind of primer you use?
Sure! When I prep cups for hydro-dipping or lots of other tumbler techniques, I use Rustoleum 2X spray paint. Flat white is the most frequently used, but I also use other colors if it will help the design somehow.
Do they sell for you thank bill

When you blow dry are you using the hot or cold setting
I have my (cheap) dryer turned to high, although I don’t think the heat is as necessary as blasting it with as much blowing power as possible.
Do you know if you need to put a final sealant on if you want to wash it or put in dishwasher and don’t want the design to not come off. Or does the design not come off at all by itself?
