Nah man spray it all matt black then cover it in mud

Sweety · 09-09-2014, 13:36

Bumper & arches etc have been vinyl wrapped

I quite like it but a different colour of vinyl would have been better

Where would insurance cost more

Should have read the blurb bumpers have been hydro dipped not wrapped

had a go at hydro dipping before & it's great fun & the sheets aren't that dear to buy

What hydro dipping ? few vids on youtube about it but basically you have a tube or huge vat of water depending on what your dipping in if you are using a film you spray the water surface with an activator then carefully lay the film on top of the water then slowly dunk the item say a wheel in then clear water surface before removing the wheel & the pattern from the film will have stuck to the wheel. You can also do it with paint which we did one night after a good drink

the ladies wanted their nails done so filled a pot with room temp water & put a drop of nail varnish in then another colour straight afterwards & used a cocktail stick to swirl the colours together before placing a finger nail onto the water surface for a few seconds & then cleared the nail varnish off the water surface with cocktail stick before removing said finger

we got some great results so we started stripping down car keys to do the same with the plastic cases of the keys & again we got grear results

TBH you can do it to almost anything

This truck is worth about 50 quid scrap value.

Looks naff ...

Thanks for taking the time to explain it, but I can't help thinking you missed an opportunity at the party, girls... car keys on the table hmmm I've heard about these parties....

So they were covering key fobs... ahhh.. How wrong I was...

Now Alex will be trimming his interior vents with hand brushed black hammerite effect then...
