Yea this would never hold up of its a car or truck body i guess if its a boat or something wpuld probably be ok...but ive seen them dipthe inside of rc bodies it works fine
Have you dipped RC bodies before when you do the inside you get bubbles all through it because the air cannot come out and if you hydro dip a body he'll be good for about 5 years you ever see someone with a welding helmet getting tossed around all you do is put two clear coat on the body and you're good to go
Common sense will tell you that he dipped outside so that thing is probably garbage after just a few runs. Lexans bodies are built to be painted on the inside so that ...nevermind i think you dont have common sense. Im not being rude just being stupidly honest
@@lossantoscity3249 What are you talking about, he hydro dipped the inside of the body! Example, just like this guy did with his lunchbox RC body with skulls..The paint is on the inside you moran - UNBELIEVABLE!!! ruclips.net/video/DpgmVD7wEHg/видео.html
Did you forget about the protective wrap on the outside of the lexan he only dipped the inside and peeled off what got on the outside duh! Whos stupid?
how has this held up? doing the hydro dip on straight plastic? did you scuff it first. or use adhesion promoter first.... i was told the hydro film actually etches on to paint... but you didnt use pain just clear plastic... please help
pit bull u can achieve a bond by applying a layer of clear cote to the polycarbonate first so the transfer film sticks properly. and as for the people asking about dipping the inside. its alot more difficult as its a concave shape. just takes a bit more practice.
The reason I did it on the outside is because its more easier then the inside to be able to do so you need more technique but i plan to do one in the future. Thank you for watching and asking.
Looks sick! But you're supposed to do the inside, so it doesn't damage it when it hits stuff later. lol
yeah but that would be really hard i though about that too, i dont think it would cover all the inside and if it did it would stretch alot
Do you have any vids? Thanks

Your suppose to do it reverse so when you flip your truck it doesn't damage the Hydrodip but still looks awesome!
Charles Bronson I was about to say the same thing, you're supposed to paint/hydro dip the underside of the body
Charles Bronson that's why we didn't see the end result. He threw it in the Trash !!!!
You forgot to paint the background white/Black first.
Woah ima do this with a beetle body
Homie in the hood getting his dip on.
Baja 5B cool body
Something at the 2 minute mark sounded mean! Btw, good work!
awesome id like to do this ,nice setup there
David Downs just please put the inner side of the body instead of the outside
I was led to believe it had to have a base colour first in order for the graphic to stick?
What you spray in the water??
activator.
It's almost been a year since you dipped that body. How has it held up? I'd love to see a picture of it installed on the buggy.

You can get a hydro dipping kit and it comes with the activator that's what he sprayed on it
