hydro dipping bike parts

[@oldhippie8774]

That's what I love about you and makes the difference between a professional and a DIY , adjusting the material so that you don't have to touch it with your hands leaving parts uncovered, so many make this mistake. i'm just a DIY too but watching videos taught me a lot before doing it myself, learning from other people's mistakes is a must so you don't do it yourself.

[@aaron_TanCK]

Holy... first time I saw can hydro dip the whole thing in 1 shot. Never see someone as professional as you, keep it up! 👍🏻👍🏻

[@yurysun4727]

Daaaang...you are really a professional painter and sprayer, Alhamdulillah i found your videos.., Thank you for sharing 👍🏻👍🏻👍🏻

[@rustysphotography]

This is brilliant and brought back memories of playgroup as a kid . I remember creating pictures on paper using an oil based paint using a very similar technique . Adding colours and swirling them together .

[@Pr3t0ria7]

Etoe, take it up a notch. I wanna see you hydro dip a whole bike frame!

[@dennisbradfordjr7391]

your work is amazing! i love watching your videos! I have been painting since i was 15. I'm 37 now! I keep learning, and you have taught me things i never thought i needed!

[@magpierh]

Only ever seen this done with pre printed sheets and kind of one-shot per piece. Never even considered it could be done like this. Super cool, and the way the tissue paper just sucks up all the paint is amazing.

[@rustysphotography]

Did you never do the similar thing at you first school blowing the paint colours around in swirls and then using paper to catch the paint ? it brought back some memories watching this :)

[@imhonest4352]

I went out yesterday and got a bike from Offer up! It's a fixer upper bike but I'm excited to paint it and just ordered soo many items from Amazon. Thank you for inspiring me to be creative with my bike!

My girlfriend Sandy was offended by your sanding joke. I told her she was being a bit rough about it.

[@stevenbarrett4836]

Hope you managed to smooth things out with Sandy.

[@BrianMcDonald]

She'll get some more grit with time. Then things won't be so abrasive.

[@derkoekje]

Thanks, Martin! I've been all over the internet trying to find a reliable guide for a high quality finish, or let a lone a good looking result in the first place. You're definitely a cut above everything else I've found. Two questions: 1. You made this video 3 years a go and I'm sure you've learned a lot. Would you do anything differently if you were to hydrodip now? 2. Are any of the steps different if I'm dipping plastic? I assume I'll need a primer for plastic but otherwise the steps should remain the same, yes? Thanks!

[@7R1LL10N]

Hi Martin, it really looks like you had a lot of fun in this video! I also enjoyed it. You really cover so much if not all we need to know about cycle painting! Machs gut

This is paint dipping. Hydro dipping is where a film is put on water that has a inked design. Also called water transfer printing.

[@joelhicks8343]

This IS a film being put on water(hydro) which is transferred to complex shapes that are dipped in. The design being transferred doesn't matter, it can be a screen printed design or swirls like this.This is hydro dipping. Paint dipping would be dunking the parts in a bucket of paint or something.

[@Egypticus]

I thought hydro meant water? Not film.

[@paulravenscraft2724]

@@Egypticus the term hydrodipping is a nickname for the process, the correct term is water transfer printing, when you just use spraypaint in water it's called paint dipping. This video shows him dropping paint into the waters surface, and swirling it around. Again water transfer printing utilizes a printed design and a chemical transforming said design into floating ink so it will transfer to painted parts. That's the reason for hiring professionals to do water transfer printing.

[@jimfarey]

I just love how happy you are all the time. :)

Wery inspiring! Gonna try this. Tanks from Sweden.

Ska du försöka själv eller vet du något ställe som fixar?

To kiss oils or could I use any spray paint or automotive paint ??? Thanks in advance..

Any tip on how to properly fix chips on a Matte paint?

[@cody_rm]

Hi Martin! Going to behydrodipping my fork and stem. I am using all the products you listed in your description for the DIY steps, the spray max 2k primers and clear coats and the humbrol enamel paints. For smoothing the paint after dipping I know you used a professional carbon primer, but for DIY you hadn’t indicated any step for smoothing. Is it okay to do several coats of 2k clear coat, sanding in between, to create a smooth finish? Or should I look for spray a clear carbon primer or clear intercoat like from house of Kolor to achieve the same smooth finish? I intend to lay a logo before the hydro dip. Likely to spray the logo, then mask over the logo before dipping to avoid color under the hydrodip and not having a significant spot of unevenness.

[@mikeshem7665]

That is definitely awesome! Can the dipping technique be used on a bicycle helmet as easily?

[@erniiaylien]

It's always a great video. However I am wondering who would paint this awesome seat post....

Do you sand after priming

[@epse30]

Hi Martin, great job. What type of Clear Primer did you use? You said it sticks better, and is thicker than standard clear coats. Ideal for getting a pro smooth finish. If I missed it, please forgive me. Hundreds of comments...

[@adamblumenthal99]

Martin, you are outdoing yourself at an amazing rate! This was super fantastic. Can you tell us more about the "transparent primer" you mentioned spraying over the dipped color before sanding and applying the final clear coat? Thanks!!

[@andrewsmith5239]

Yes where do you find a clear primer I can't find one anywhere

[@mistuhjawknee5505]

that looks sick!

[@aqhan]

I love your videos. I got inspired by your videos and recently painted my road bike in cadmium red with silver glitter on top. It looks amazing, but I couldn't achieve a high glos finish. For some reason, neither the primer, nor paint, nor clear coat wanted to be wet sanded and would just start washing away. What did I do wrong?

[@fkbrains1769]

Also where can i get the transparent primer.

[@tskelin]

whether the water should be hot or cold?

Super Job wie immer. Eins würde mich aber interessieren...in wie weit passen die Klemmungen von Vorbau, Sattelstütze und Brems-/Schalthebel nachdem du derart viele aber notwendige Farbschichten aufgebracht hast?

[@ETOE]

Wenn der Rahmen tight wie ein Zäpchen ist, wirds wohl eher nichts. Wenn der Rahmen weiter gebaut ist und vorher beide Teile ausgemessen werden konnten, passt es. Kemmungen an dem Vorbau sind nicht beschichtet, wie man sieht und die Klemungen am Lenker waren vorher dicker mit Glas beschichtet. Passt auch in den Vorbau wie man am Ende sieht. Ich würde dennoch alle Teile nicht beschichten. Der Lenker wird eh umwickelt und die Stütze zwei Drittel im Rahmen unsichtbar sein. Aber da viele KZbinr das sehen wollen, kann man es dennoch zeigen.

[@YuoTubeTobi]

@@ETOE gebe ich dir vollkommen Recht! Abschleifen im Bereich der Klemmungen kann man später bei Bedarf immer. Sollte gar keine Kritik sein. Gruß

You haven’t said much about how to smooth things out and to make a nice smooth clear finish on the object. And I can’t find anywhere how to FINISH the pieces, how to smooth them out and make them look professionally painted.

What grit sand paper? Is it done went sand before clear

[@princeZPT]

if there's a bubble just use torch or heat gun but flame torch is much better to remove those bubbles

[@sasha371]

Is it a good idea to paint on a position where hoods should be and where stem clamps? I got feeling that on a bumps everything will move and paint will be scuffed

[@holgaholic]

would have loved to see it mounted in the bike

[@arrivingarriving5166]

I asked my girlfriend Sandra if she'd like to sand my parts but she said no, so then I told my wife my girlfriend had said no and to my surprise she said she'd be more than happy to do it! Sadly however, the end result is that now my bibshorts fit funny and I can't ride more than 10m before I'm in terrible pain and have to get off the bike - so my question is: what grit sandpaper should she have used again? ;) Great video though, you've done a fantastic job and the parts look stunning!
