Hydro Dipping

[BDswarveP]

Anyone know of anywhere that does some good quality carbon fibre dipping, maybes with some examples of markers?

dont no about markers but warped can sort hoppers with hydro dipping

How well has it held up to playing paint ball? Ive been looking into this for a while and am curious to know know durable the coating is on a marker. Ive seen how durable it is on plastics, but not on metals.

Seems fine so far, has endured a couple of days play without any marks - the majority of the gun is plastic, however the front reg is aluminium - I added the reg grip to try and avoid any wear there.

its surely going to hold up better on metal than it will plastic, as theres no flex to knack the lacquer or the sheet...........???....?

Are there any limitations to hydro dipping a marker? I want to "Jazz" up my marker but don't want to break it.

we have dabbled with a few guns testing the finish etc! the finish itself is quite durable but we found that dipping anything with a seal can cause a issue as the change of size and tolerances. we have had a some lovely hoppers done. and a couple of guns. depending on what you want doing I can advise of issues that may arise. I preferred the matt laquer to the gloss.
