Anyone done a camo dip?

[Musick17]

or any other kind of dip for that matter.

Just wondering who has had it done and what kind of quality it came out being.
Does it fade easily? Have any scratch resistance? Let me know what you know!

I'm not quite sure what you mean by camo dip. do you mean a camo paint job?

 

[Sasquatch_Ryda]

I think he means a vehicle wrap....pretty much a great big decal that covers the entire vehicle.

 

[nine-teen91stxranger]

no, thats not what hes talking about. look it up guys, they did a bike on O.C.C. with dipped camo

I've never had any done, but have looked into the process a little. Once it has been dipped, it then gets clearcoated with basically automotive clear. So it should last and stay looking nice.

A camo dip is basically a big tub of water with a sheet of camo decal floating on top. whatever you want to be camo they just dip it in and the decal wraps around it. so instead of spraying your shotgun camo and it looking like hell it can match your camo clothes perfectly.

but you can get anything dipped that you want.
here is an example

Cool!! Never saw that before. That is different!! Hmmmm, now I can do my wiener to match my custom built shorty Mossberg 500 12 gauge!!!

Thats how they do it to bows and guns that have camo print on them. Its very durable but I thikn it be pretty pricey to do whole truck.

 

[Musick17]

whole truck!! heck no. I was just thinkin about some interior trim pieces

 

[RangerBoy94]

Well in that case do it! I'd be interested to see how it looks and how much it cost. I might do that.

 

[Musick17]

I think I might. I looked some places up last night and will give some a call for pricing when I get a chance (this weekend, got def leppard concert tonight)

I thought about getting real wild and recovering my headliner with camo cloth too, but that might be to much.... lol

Seems like a finish like that would be pretty fragile.
