I thought the whole process was actually dipping the product into a chemical
to alter its color.
Much less offensive that's what I'm thinking most of the time while reading rctech!

This is all probably a digression from the thread subject, unless it is somehow related to "hydrodipping".

You might be thinking of anodizing, which is not for plastics, but does involve dipping the piece to change it's color, although with a completely different process seen here.
No chemical process involved. The surface tension of the water is what pushes the sticker into the nooks and crannies of the piece. It's a very slick process! Check it out...

I had 4 rims on my 76 Cordoba that I had chromed a few moons ago
and they called that hydrodipping. Actually the company I used was Brooklyn
Hydrodipping! Unless they did other stuff there besides the chroming?
BTW Figured you be down at RCCW today, what gives?


It's not a digression, btw, because is how he covered all the scars from his short lived job at the pencil sharpener factory.
He did a short film while he was in college he's not very proud of. It was called brown noser. He later did an episode of Candid Camera with Alan Funt, where he stood behind people at grocery store lineups and goosed them, utilizing fibs suited to how snooty the person looked.
