Interior Trim Hydrographing - Water Transfer Printing
Ya, I thought about that too, I like the look of it, but didn't want to look like a Honda Civic rice burner.
I got it from a wholesale distributer. Most of the films come from China. It's pretty difficult to get a hold of if you don't run a shop.
Also, you have to do quite a bit of research to get it to turn out right. Each film requires a specific chemical activator, specific water temperatures, specific soak times, activation times, rinse times, heating times etc. I'm still learning the process. Once I get it down, I might open up my services to the forum members to build my portfolio. But I've got a lot on my plate right now (in the middle of moving from Seattle to San Diego and taking 4 full time classes at school - 2 400 level math courses, a 400 Chemistry course and a 300 level Computer Science course). Trying to graduate this year.
There's several on ebay...don't know the quality though.
That video that was posted has a website that you can get it from I noticed but its all camo stuff. I haven't been able to find woodgrain or cabon fiber anywhere. I checked ebay, but you always have to worry about quality....

Maybe you could start with a small stock of the basic trim pieces, then start an exchange program sort of what I have read that Patman does. Classes come first tho. Get yur edjumication first .
hit me up if you want a starter .
