Spray Paint Hydro Dipping for Beginners
Вставка
- Опубліковано 29 жов 2015
- I've seen a ton of videos of people doing this and 99% of them are better than me. This was my first few times trying this and I decided to record it so anyone else who wants to give it a go can see what worked and didn't work for me. Thanks for watching and if you have any tips for me please share!
Hi I do this all the time and you have to be QUICK and I mean QUICK. I usually use two ppl to spray the colors so they are constantly moving once they set the enamel paint turns dry and sticks. Then after you get your color set you like you have five seconds to swirl the paint with a THIN stick. I like to use a spoon handle. hitting the sides of the buckets does NOTHING to spread and swirl the paint. Final tip when you dip keep the item under water and swish the paint away to the edges of the container with the 'spoon' being careful to NOT touch the item.. DO NOT have paint over it or it WILL recoat and the colors are NOT as diffuse as going in. Also to get the strings from being there gently move your object around under the water before pulling it out.
I THINK I got all the tips I have. If you have anymore questions s feel free to ask. 💖
Have a merry yuletide and a wonderful new year!
Warmest regards and best wishes,

Michelle Bolen do you just use water and regular spray paint?
Michelle Bol
you use a bucket also.
Sorry but had to say this. I thought you guys was frequently too quick! On a serious note are there any paints that take longer to dry that you can use. Stuff like Hammerite takes ages but the colours are crap!
Michelle Bolen Michelle can you clear coat over this? And if so so how long do you have to wait? Also can this kind of dipping be used for wood? Obviously this guy has covered NONE of these topics... thanks
I have been planning to give hydro dip a shot. Thanks for posting
that yellow looks amazing. I need to learn how to do these... You done an awesome job.
I think it came out pretty good. I'm about to do my first hydro dip and your video has been pretty helpful, so thanks!
Man that's greatest vid man thanks for this attempt I was wanting to try it and now I know it does work
Your really helpful in showing how to do this. Thanks 😁
awesome video and the ending out come on the paint job looks awesome
Laughed my ass off at the FAST FORWARD bucket slapping!!!! Not negatively, was just funny!!!!
Tom Kuhlman I'm so happy I'm not the only who thought that was hilarious
I don't know why, but just struck me as funny!!!!!
Tom Kuhlman hahaha same here
LOL the dog must be wondering what the fuck his doing .?
Mate the best I’ve seen someone create this way. Wel done you’ve won a can of baked beans
Hey BlueDog, thanks for posting that. I was researching this and found your link. I'm going to give it a shot on an old snare drum of mine to give it a unique look. Thanks again, keep on keeping on!
abianx Good luck with your project!
you have to be fast you spray and instead of spraying going grabbing the other just have all the colors next to you so you can switch or get 2 in each hand and do it and just spray and have the item your hydro dipping right next to you aswell and once done spray painting use a stick or something to swirl it if you want and then just go in at a slight angle and dip it, shake in the water and then pull it out
Thanks for the video, I'm gonna try this!!!
I like your dog reminds me of my Cowboy, he lived to be 22 years old and always a great dog
Love your video! Thanks for sharing!
Thanks!
70 degrees water temp, add borax, use oil based paint.
BlueDogGarage , good attempt. On the skull you failed to mix paint , different kind of paint , just cut a stir stick in half long ways, 3x then you will have 3 to mix with also try slowing down and use more paint and have someone help with the paint dip slowww, then clear the water and pull out set on cardboard let dry .
I used cold water from my garden hose and the outside temp was about 53. Dipped a tomahawk and my knife and both looked pretty good. Going to get some blanks like you did and experiment before I dip my rifle. I used rustoleum came series paints. You're stuff looks good for just beginning brother.
Thanks bud, I'm planning to do a shotgun soon. Probably after the first of the year when things settle down.
Nice job you are really good at doing this
I would love tobhave some of your art for my garage man cave! You are very talented!!!!
Yeller!! Love it 😂❤
First use White pint, then the other colors you want to use. Start pulling your paint from the middle to the outside edge to anchor it in a few different area's. Then you can swirl it from any direction. Yes you have to be quick when doing it. Also, dip at an angle, hold it while clearing the paint from the top of the water and pull your item out at the same angle it went in. This is the same concept as water marbling for finger nails.
this dood deserves more subs :)
The very first one that you did was the prettiest IMHO. The color combo was light and cheerful and made me smile. You could sell that one for good money or enter it in abstract art shows. Also I think your swirls were better BC your water was clean and didn't have leftover paint still in it. I think I will have a wide drywall knife to scrape the excess paint off the sides and a piece of cardboard to scrape the knife off of... I think it is the second dip that while you were spraying the paint, cartoon faces were morphing so fast That I am gonna watch again and share it. Thank you for posting this. I learned a lot. I am gonna do some ugly beige crocs all girly with pinks and white and metallic gold...And I have two huge bison skulls that I want to do... just haven't decided yet.. though, I'm leaning towards metallic gold and then doing a black leather fringed and sewn to go over it....maybe some beads and feathers and a dream catcher in the third eye (just above and centered between the eyes) ...( I just realized that the third eye forms a triangle and got a whole spiritual teaching the message that I got is that to fully see ,..you need to look with all three.) (Wow! Neither of us would have ever guessed that I would get a spiritual lesson from you. Lol I love it!!!) . I have one last comment on your skull dip... since that one is your throw away expirement, I think it would be funny as hell to do a camouflage dip and hang a sign on it and say something like " ha! You can't see me" LMAO Last but not least, if you ever read this, you have to hit me up and tell me all about your artwork hanging in the background. Thanks Blue Dog! Erin
Hey Erin, send me your address and I'll send you that panel.... Best way is to email BlueDogGarage@aol.com and put something in the subject so I know it isn't junk mail... As for the "artwork" in the background. They are just some practice panels i did when I first started learning to pinstripe.
This was amazing! that skull looked so awesome! love how your dog was hanging around too!
+A rtie Thanks! I have a video up of just skulls....and yea if i'm outside working on anything she thinks she needs to be out there with me "supervising" lol
Thanks for watching!
BlueDogGarage is
ive seen people spray over all the colors to keep them all active. keeps it from clumping/drying. testors model paint seems to go on nice.
I just started looking into Hydro dipping, and from the research I have done, I think the paint may be drying in the water to fast because the water is not warm enough. I read the water needs to be around 75-90 degrees. Try setting the bucket of water out in the sun and add boiling water to it right before spraying the paint.
Also, you should look into the hydro dip films instead of just spray paint. The films have crazy cool patterns, you can even buy ones with Real Tree paintjobs that look extremely professional, almost looks like you put a decal on the product but it is actually paint.
with the films you have to buy activator spray though so it gets a bit more cost effective.
Amazing!
Thanks man, did you have a problem with the paint getting stringy when you stirred it? Mine just wanted to turn into a sticky goop on the end of stirrer (screwdriver lol)
great video, I really enjoyed it. I'm going to try doing a motorbike helmet.
i just watched about 8 videos on this. use some newspaper to clear the surface before extraction. it will keep it from getting muddy.
I know this is in fast motion but I've found it to work best when I sprayed longer. 15-20 second per color
that was funny stuff bud..thanks
What colour combo did you use on the dog love it
Even if it didn't work perfectly, you get a like from me for all the Oklahoma State stuff in your garage anyway :-)
One thing on your panels or anything else you are paint hydro-dipping spray a base coat on the object usually what ever color is mid (not the darkest, not lightest). You also need a bigger tub so you have more room to push paint to the side before taking it out.
suggestions maybe try silicone to keep it from sticking / dw40 with silicone example .. also maybe liquid enamel paints instead of spray so you can pour or use a pipet to put paint on water would be easier to get patterns you desire .. good luck
Very cool man, I likey. Yer an artiste i dont kare whut everbody else says ur awesome. Im gonna use this here same method to dip my junk.
Fine looking hound dog you got there
you will be happier with an oil based paint it won't dry as fast in the water it will however take quite a bit longer to dry once you pull it out of the water.
Hey, man. Firstly, cool video--i get lost in painting and finishing youtube holes. Secondly, what breed of dog is that? I have a mutt that has very similar coloring, and I'm, curious. Thanks!
I would try an oilbased coating around the inside of the bucket to hold the paint from sticking to the sides. Simone
Cool!
After your done dipping and it's dry is there some kind of coating you can put on to protect it like epoxy or clear coat
do you have to use specific spray paint or any types willdo the job.
remember that what you see on top of the water is actually the underside. you would have to have a camera inside the water to see what the project is going to look like. have to think backwards like oil painting you start from the back and work forward
try using the enamel in the pint size cans with medicine droppers Paint won't clump as fast as spray can hope this helps did my whole dash board in. my truck looks awesome
that is some cool stuff lol wow
I use oil-based Testors Enamel. 1 tablespoon of Borax per gal of water at room temp. Usually turns out OK. If your going to use rattle cans use Rust-Oleum - it's oil based.
May i ask what kind of paint you use? Just regular or anything special and so where can i find one?
They turned out cool, but why not have a table next to the bucket with the spray cans on so it is easier and faster to grab them. Cheers matey.
use warm water paint will take longer to dry giving you longer working time also always clean paint residue from previous dipping off water surface before starting new dip that paint will be partially dry and will mess up your new design
Tip: use warm water to keep the paint longer flexible.
Wrong!!!
Cold watering keeps it longer... Warm water drys it faster.
@@sweenytwain7095 you fucking idiots... water temperature should be somewhere between 75-90º F
Nick Purdy googled it didn’t ya
i've been doing some hydro dipping also
nice tutorial men i like it
i love his dog
those paintings on the wall ya got a video on those ?
room temp water and when you pul color u dont want to pull from the very edge start like 2nd or 3rd ring in the main thing ive noticed is letting your water reach room temp
u can ice the water to keep it chilled and pull from mid ring instead of the edges of bucket.
awesome😀
Try using grease on a small artist brush for close up stuff like the deer skull. You can just wipe it off after it dries.
What type of paint are you using, ie, medal, plastic, flat, glossy?
im thinking if the water was cold the paint wouldnt dry as fast, and if you hav a 2x4 on edge of bucket and set cans on board, then rather than spraying into center spray the paint left to right to get lines, and try the deer head again, im just speaking outloud here i havent done it yet either, but cool that you tried it just the same cool video
How smooth does it come out to be
If the pain is drying on you before you can get the part in the water that is because your water is to warm. I suggest putting ice in the water and let it set until it melts. Then put your paint in and it will not dry so fast. But a very helpful video. Thank You
make sure your water is cleaned between dips as you can get gloops which you can see on some of your boards
if you were doing this for a bike what would u put on it to protect it?
How does the paint hold up? Any prep work involved?
looks cool would be cool to do motorcycle parts in that color
what spray do you use - regular spray dries quickly
I found the best way to do this method is to have warm/hot water. It slows down the drying.
Why would you want to slow it down
11:43secs did you dip your dog aswell ???????
Your deer skull was such a bad A idea especially with the camo-esque color scheme im totally gonna have to try that!! (Dont worry ill credit you for sure hah but really great idea!!)
Thanks, I’ve done several the past few years but haven’t recorded them all
I'm no professional but, my first thought when you started to get the globs was that you might be using too much paint... Those signs turned out pretty cool though! Thanks for the vid
Thanks man
first try a shelf any suggestions
Could you do the same for with aluminum license plate
you have to tape the entire antler on both side and go in upside down antlers first. the way you did it is printing the bottom of the skull.
That's pretty
maybe you should try a different temperature water. I would like to think the paint would dry faster if water is cold that could be the reason it is getting stringy
im not sure if it would be different just be careful if you do it
I saw one saying 75 degrees, but not stating if it was Fahrenheit, I think it was Celsius. He had lots of time for dipping, and got a nice shiny surface.
@@kimhansen6384 apparently it should be hot, but not boiling, so I think your about right.
@@kimhansen6384 75-90 Fahrenheit
I pinstripe as well. Cool lookin panels hung up. Does this make the paint have a texture or does it lay down pretty flat? I might try this on a panel and wet sand it then clear. It would be pretty cool for a Rat Fink or Flying Eyeball panel background.
It gives them some texture, I've considered striping one but was worried your eye would lose the striping in the swirls. If you try it let me know how it goes!
Will do.
I see you had a grid on one of the panels. If your panel consists of darker colors just grid it out with a white stabilo. Or just make a center line and work off of that. I usually just make a center line and work from there. I find myself trying to be to careful or perfect if I lay out a grid.
+bowtiepower69 yea I was just lazy and never rinsed the grid off
Use just 3 colors! It works the best with just 3 colors. Spray one after the other for just 3 seconds. After that waste no time if possible and use your screw driver to spread. Then dip at a 45 degree angle with a constant left to right or front to back dip. If you want camo use brown, green, and tan. For some reason yellow paint sucks for dipping. Unless your doing all yellow.
I get marks in the paint from the water drying on it. Do you know how to stop the water from creating those marks?
try putting a cap or two of rubbing alcohol in the water and mixing it before the paint process starts. If that doesn't work it might be the quality of your cities water. When the water is rich with lime or calcium it makes the process kinda hard.
+jerrydon575 Oh thank you, I'll give that a try. Never thought that it could be what's in the water.
Would using distilled water be good?
+Defx10 I couldn't say but maybe someone will come along that has tried it.
Hi I am from Iraq and I am not allowed to enter the stimulant material which is added to the films of Hydrographic printing. Is there an alternative installation for this article? What is the answer?
is this regular Rust-Oleum spray paint?
Cool but you sure do like your green.. #LoveGreen
is it just straight water
Do u have to use oil base spray paint
is all type of spray paint can be use?
thnkz blue dog!👦
maybe set a small table next to bucket or a board across the top of bucket on edge and line up the cans so as to grab them faster pretty cool,
try mixing it by blowing through a drinking straw or with forced water.Let me know if it works.
Did it ever leave any globs ? What’s that from the paint dryin fast? Bummer you moved the paint when pulling up on everything else besides the deer head 😂
Do u use metallic paint or primer.
Best advise would be to use warm water so the paint doesnt dry up on top of the water
10:33 and out came swamp thing.
Try using sander on The side of the container to mix the paint
Is that water in the bucket to start?
I like that sound 5:33
Water should be around 93 degrees, it will help be more plyable as cold water will make it set ALOT faster, you should also skim the layers of paint off the top of the water so it wont clump up from other trials. Give it a try, hope it works out better for you.
Red and yellow paint ( Thinks McDonald's)
@2:30 McDonald's sign appears... illuminate 😂
I tried this but the film of paint seems to separate as I dip the item. Not enough paint? Still experimenting....
The water needs to be warm and also works good with oil based paint like nail polishes.
the dog looks hydro dipped too ...🤣🤣🤣
i could not resist to ask!
what color was your dog before you hydrodipped him? :)
hehehe if he used that much paint dipping the dog it would set like concrete eventually but that was a funny comment you made the moment I read it I was drinking a coffee and I ended up with the legs of my jeans looking like they'd been dipped cause it was so well timed when I read your comment the coffee was just spat out. Well done funny comment 😂😂😂
