I have a little experience. I've been building rcs since I was 5 and I'm 44 now I love them its a hobby

Wow! Great job. You've officially inspired me.. now I'm thinking thinks over for my first Crawler build.

Wow that's a very different approach to rc painting! 👍

I'm in awe! Never seen anything like this before. Human imagination and talent have no limit! You sir surely miss none of it.👍🤘

Well I gotta try that 👌👍👍👍thanks for sharing the how to!

Came out a lot better than I thought it would. Love the look bro

So that’s pretty cool

Looks great might have to give that a try on my next body

I had no idea you could hydro-dip with paint like that - excellent work sir. Love it.

Always wanted to try this. Thanks for taking the time to show the process and giving me the confidence to give it a try!

Would love to see more of this!! Turned out awesome!

I've got to have a go at this ....Thanks for taking the time to share ..

Dude, this is an awesome paint job. I have a similar idea for the same body, I just want to back it with gunmetal instead. I was going to mask and paint, now I think I have to try some hydrodipping. Thank you for the inspiration.

Killer paint! Thanks for sharing! I'm going to give that a try for sure.

Thanks for taking the time to show this process. I've always wanted to do something like this. Nice job!

Thanks for the great info gonna try it soon

I did this using Marble dip on a Mardave body 22years ago lol...balanced the shell upside down and had a small hole in the roof with a bit of tape over it, filled it with water then add the paint/dip .Pull the tape off and release the water. It left the paint on the inside of shell, then I added a little glitter before the dip dried last thing to do is spay over the dip(I used white) to make it really stand out.

Love the CANDY paint. Came out great.

Awesome! Thank you for showing this…! I scotch bright the inside of my body’s before painting it helps the paint adhere really good! If u have ever hit the body on a curb the paint may chip out…. If u scotch bright the body before painting it that will not happen. I do rc crawlers so the body’s take a beating… tricks of the trade..

Wow that’s really a great paint method. Love the way it turned out.

Красавчик). Я тоже свою приблизительно так выкрашу.. лайк

Dude, this is fantastic. I do quite a bit of airbrushing myself and I airbrush RC bodies and I fade in and out different colors to get somewhat that type of affect never thought about the dip but you have mastered that beyond belief. I think I will try that with my next project. Thanks for the tip and thanks for the video.!

Awesome work buddy

That came out great. Thanks very much.

Awesome job on all the 3 bodies.

You should try to spray some hydrodiping activator on the water first? Might help stop the paint curing to fast.

Nice work

Looks awesome

It came out better than I thought it was going to, good job bro 👍

Wow that was cool man! I think hydro dipping works well cause you paint rc bodies from the inside so it looks super smooth. When I watch ppl hydro dip game controllers or something they always look caked on and too thick. Nice video man!

Great video! Please do more videos :)

Very nice been wanting to see this done 👍💯 nice channel

Very cool I will have to try that!

New subscriber man you really did an awesome job on that body I kind of want to try this now

Man that looks great !! Love it 🏁🏁🏁🏁 I’m going to try it definitely 👍🏻 🇬🇧

Awesome video!

I mix in 1/2 cup of denatured alcohol for every 3 gallons of water. it makes the paint thinner and takes longer to set so you don't have to rush it. Turned out sick though!

Super cool man! 👌👌👌💯💯💯

The Warmer or Semi hot the Water, THE BETTER as the Paint will not set as Fast and be more workable!! I have done this with Model Cars!!

It comes out better if you spay back and forth across the water and DO NOT STIR IT. The point is this is so all the paint sits on top of the water not mixed up in chunks throughout it

Thanks for the instruction! You said you cut out the protective layer and sprayed black, then used a marker for the black trim pieces? So this black trim was actually applied from the top of the car, while all the other colors are underneath? I think the last shot of your video should be with it mounted to the car frame so we can see the whole look. Again, thanks for sharing the technique.

Cool I’ve never thought about dipping them to make the paint jobs don’t get me wrong I’ve got some really good paint jobs, but I never thought of dipping them in water to make like swirls and stuff

Hello, what is your colors tamiya ps for the hydropaint ? Thanks you

That turned out really good. I didn't realize how easy this is to do. Now I'm curious if you could try a stencil design/logo in the middle somewhere while dipping. I guess it would just be better to stencil a logo straight onto the body before dipping. Either way I think it could be the next test in your experimenting skills.

Gundam builders unite!

Watched your video. Awesome. I race carpet tracks and am curious about paint flaking off upon impact. Have you attempted applying a paint backer first? If you have do you get similar results? Appreciate your how too video

Thank you so much for showing us the process , I have a arrma Vorteks and I want to pain my shell and I think I've found my process of getting it done . I really like 80s neon colours like hot bright pink and neon yellow would this work with it ???

Looks cool but Idk man, to uncontrolled to be wasting the $30 in paint each body. Why not get actual Hydro film ?

Fantastic work...can this be targeted to an unmasked part of the car? Like a strip sectioned off?

looks great i just messed up my paint job on Tamiya TT02BR i just built and gonna sand down the body and try this! Great work Sir

Hallett, not too far from home.

I've never painted an RC body before and I want to do something more than just a solid colour or a gradient fade. It's for a drift car. I think I might try this on some lexan offcuts first before moving to the actual car. I think blue and purple look great, but i'm tempted by red, yellow and orange, backed with lame flake first as I want the rainbow effect, then a bright silver.

You must be using a gopro lol Thanks for this video

Can anyone tell me where to find that bmw body for an Arrma Infraction? I'd love to have one but can't seem to find one. I'm new to the hobby so I'm not sure if they make a 1/7 bmw body or I just can't find one .

Can you use metallic paints and not translucent? I have both purple and blue and would love to try this on a Supra body. Thanks Joe

Hello. I'm a first timer. Where do I find the protective covering for the outside? Also, I've heard of guys sanding the surface to help the paint adhere to the body. What kind of sandpaper do I use and how hard do I sand it?

workingg!!

1 i would try warmer water and it seems you lose most of your paint when you stir it...also another tip is to use the tubes they give you like with a can of wd40...those little red tubes you attach? Would really help alot plus give you wild patterns

The way I hydro dipped mine was filling the tub up with water adding ice and putting ice packs in until the ice melts and the water is still ice cold. It allows the paint to float on the water without clumping. And with holes in the body, you wont have to rotate just slowly at an angle lower it in and the air comes through the holes allowing the paint to stick inside. Then wiping the access away before pulling ot out. Still have to do it a couple times unless you spray a translucent color about 2 coats then use black and pearl or your choice of 2 colors and use those to hydro dip. Then back it. Or hydro dip with 2 colors then spray a 3rd to fill in the clear spaces before backing. Nice color choice. My first one was racing blue, black and gunmetal. Second was yellow and silver streak.

❤❤❤

It works better if you first off spray a light base coat on the inside of the body, like how you’d spray a solid color on any kind of clear lexeon body. This could’ve filled in the majority of the clear areas he still had after finishing his first layer of the dip. And spraying your color choices in a smaller paper cup including the same amount of clear in with other color choices. And If you think about this example as in a wax candle. Heat will melt it but when you put that still hot liquid wax into a cup of cold water, it instantly hardens back up and takes its forum. This procedure is kind of the same As in the cold water turns it into more of a film like layer. And that there is how you want the paint to forum into

Looks very marble like. Multiple dips is used only because the paint cures too fast right?

Great stuff but im dying to see how to do it with film.

Will this work with solid colors?

At the end, spray it with lacquer spray.

More content please. Any new projects?

Use warm water and the ain’t won’t solidify quickly

your a fuking lengend mate :)

Nah!…

Dude I'm not a professional but Tamiya paint is horrible. Duratrax paint is the best

you waste so much paint, you should move your hand around like your painting a wall and not center shot the whole time...

Can this be done in a flame design?
