2 x Coats of Primer

1 side painted

Quick Dip of the Rails and covers

Those look really cool, how is it that the dipping is done? or is it more of a wrap that's used? Seen some that where wrapped then dipped but that only allowed for the wrap to seal.

The print design begins on sheet of film
The process dissolves the film leaving only the design
Dipping lifts the ink into your object
