What is Hydro Dipping?
Hydro Dipping goes by several industry monikers, including:
- Hydrographic printing
- Immersion printing
- Water transfer imaging
- Cubic printing
- Fluid imaging
- and others…
Simply stated, Hydro Dipping uses water to transfer an image onto an object.
Images range anywhere from a from a “sticker bomb” look, a wood grain finish, or the very popular carbon fiber pattern.

Hydro Dipping Process
Hydro Dipping is a “water transfer printing” process used to apply highly customized, printed designs to the surface of an object.
The process utilizes a water-soluble “transfer film” consisting of a printed design, which is evenly distributed (or transferred) onto an object when immersed in a heated, water-filled Hydro Dip tank.
In order to properly hydro dip your product, Pro Coat Fabrication employs a meticulous process.
Hydro Dipping typically includes the following steps:
- Prep your object
- Clean and degrease
- Rough the surface
- Mask off areas you don’t wish to hydro dip
- Spray on a primer
- Apply a base coat
- Fill the hydro dip tank with heated water
- Lay transfer film on water’s surface
- Apply an activator to liquify the transfer film
- Dip your object
- Wash away any adhesive residue
- Air dry
- Apply clear coat
And presto! You’re in Hydro Dipping heaven!
