What can I have dipped?

Accepted Answer

Anything that can be submerged and isn't too large for our facility to handle. Wood, metal, plastic, glass, ect. can all be dipped. We handle everything from firearms/guns to coolers. If you have something specific that you are interested in having dipped but are unsure if it will work with our process reach out to us via our Contact page.

Question 3

How long will the dip last?

Accepted Answer

The dipping process is finished off with a sealant that is similar to what is used in the automotive and marine industry. It is strong and durable. However as we dip many different materials, finishes, and products of varying use, the finish on your items may wear over time.

Question 4

Can items be reprinted/redipped?

Accepted Answer

Of course! When redipping an item we will remove the previous dip and finish to ensure your new hydrographics adhere properly for the highest quality.

Question 5

What can I do to keep my graphics looking new?

Accepted Answer

Graphics are sealed using a clear coat that is similar to that used in the automotive industry. Most parts can be cleaned using water and a mild soap and/or automotive detailer. However, due to the variety of the products we customize we recommend spot testing any cleaning product in a non conspicuous location first.
