Carbon Fiber Hydro Dip Film

The carbon fiber hydro dip film is made of PVA material, and can be applied on the car part surface through the water and the activator. When you dip the car accessories into a liquid through the activated water transfer printing film, the car parts will get a new carbon fiber look. Carbon fiber dipped film is popular to apply on the surface of an automobile or machine to give it a new look. You can choose any color or design you want to apply on your motorcycle, car or another vehicle.

1. What is Carbon Fiber Hydro Dipping Film?

The carbon fiber hydro dipping film is PVA film carried with carbon fiber designs on the surface.

And the carbon fiber hydro dipping film has a lot of names in the market. Water transfer printing, water immersion, aqua dipping, hydrographic, etc are the names of hydro dipping.

Types Of Carbon Fiber Hydro-Dipping Film:

Carbon fiber hydro dipping film consists of based PVA film and carbon fiber design. The PVA film is a kind of transparent water-soluble film,  and the carbon fiber design is printed with water-based pigment.

The common color of carbon designs contains black, grey, silver, purple, blue, gold, colorful, and others, some of them have based color but some carbon hydro dip films do not have based color and show transparent or semi-transparent.  Therefore the carbon fiber hydro dipping film designs give more possibility to the hydro dipping masters.

  • Transparent carbon fiber hydro dip film

The transparent carbon fiber hydro dip films don’t have a background color, its background color depends on the surface color of your hydro-dipping product such as a car dashboard, or skateboard. So that you are able to apply any color on the surface of your pre-hydro-dipped objects with oil-based painting (It is important to use the oil-based paint for surface color so that the designs can be applied successfully).

  • Semi-transparent carbon fiber hydrographic film

What is a semi-transparent carbon fiber hydrographic film? The same name, this type of carbon fiber water immersion film has semi-transparent carbon fiber designs on the PVA film, it has the color itself, but also can be affected by background color. You need to choose a suitable background color to show the perfect hydro-dipped results.

  • Non-transparent carbon fiber hydrographic film

As we know from the name of non-transparent carbon fiber hydrographic film, it has its own background color, and can not be affected by the background color on the pre-hydrographic dipped items. You don’t need to choose a suitable oil-based primer for your object, you will get the same decorative surface on your hydro-dipping car dashboard, car rim, gun, bike, or bottle.

The painting color is nonsense for decoration changing, so you can choose any color painting for this type of carbon fiber hydrographic film. The final dipping result is the same.

2. How To Apply Carbon Fiber Designs On the Products?

The carbon fiber water transfer printing film can apply the carbon fiber design on the surface of almost any material in the water transfer process.

When you want to dip the carbon fiber design on the object, you need to prepare a hydro dip kit first.

Preparation

The hydro dipping kits cover:

  1. Hydrographic film
  2. Spray gun
  3. Oil-based painting(choose the color based on design)
  4. Hydro dipping activator
  5. Dipped objects ( car parts, helmet,  phone case, furniture, etc.)
  6. Glossy painting

Hydro dipping process

The carbon fiber hydrographic movie is a water-soluble film, when you put the transfer film on the water, and spraying activator. The based PVA film will melt in the water and release the design on the water’s surface.

When you put the dipped object through the design at 45 angles, the design will print on the item’s surface.

Here are the simple hydro dipping process:

3. What Product Can Be Decorated With Carbon Fiber Hydrographic Film?

Hydro dipping is a technology that is used to replace traditional printing technology.  Hydro dipping printing is based on water pressure so that it can print the design on a curve, a complete product such as car rims, whole bottle surfaces, furniture frames, artwork, car dashboards, guns, bicycles, shoes, etc.

For such advantages of hydro dipping, let us know what product it can apply.

Luckily, almost all products even stone can be printed with water transfer printing technology.

The following is the material that can use water transfer printing technology for surface decoration.

  • Plastic/PP/PVC/PE/ABS
  • Glass
  • Metal
  • Ceramic
  • Wood
  • Fabrics
  • Leather
  • Marble
  • Stone

Anyway, as long as your product can follow the hydro dipping process without any problem, your products can use hydro dipping film to decorate the surface.
