Title: Hydro dipping
Post by: Le Chuck on January 13, 2013, 09:16:14 pm

Anybody ever messed around with hydro dipping?  Seems like it would be a good solution for custom colored buttons and balltops.  Carbon fiber anyone?

I see this a lot in the RC world.

It doesn't hold up to wear. The only reason it works on RC Bodies is due to the fact that they dip the inside of the body, leaving the art protected behind the clear plastic of the body.
