Title: Lid Designs
Post by: arsenal123 on September 15, 2015, 09:23:55 AM

Just wondering if this was something akin to how you do the patterns on your helmets?  If not, can you do a video detailing?  Looks quite interesting if so!

Ayrtek have been doing this for a while :) its called water based transfer or hydro dripping.

Used to be not that common now loads of people do it. usually used for car parts/guns etc

Yes hydro coating is how we produced the Carbo models as well as the Skull effect, Wooden effect and Camo versions back in 2012 now.....the all time fav people always pick up is still the Kandy Pink one though as @Vitas Cricket will vouch for with his twitter profile pic :D
