Hydrographics
Looking for a quality shop to do a few items, but I need a shop that will do it correctly the first time. Any help would be appreciated

What are you looking to get done?
If it isn't done right it shouldn't be sent out. Some things are simple to dip and some pieces can be a real pain to get right. The hydro-dipping process adds many more opportunities for error on top of the normal painting process. There can be a lot of trial and error involved on intricate parts. There are some pieces that will just never come out absolutely perfect due to the process/trapped air, but blemishes in high visibility areas are unacceptable. |

I had some work done with RPI Designs. The first time it had issues with clear coat cracking so i sent my engine cover back to have it redone. Second time didnt have as nice of a finish as the first time, but it hasnt cracked at all. They will do custom work for you, but expect it to take about 4 weeks for it to get done and trying to get a hold of anybody can be difficult.

Try Street Customs in Mooresville. I saw there work last weekend and am very impressed.

We do Hydrographic work all the time.
What are you looking to have done, and in what pattern? We do not farm it out to a another shop either we do it ourselves. Thanks, Roger |
