Hydrographics, also known as immersion printing, water transfer printing, water transfer imaging, or hydro dipping, is a method of applying printed designs to nearly any three-dimensional object… If you are not sure if your item can be printed on/graphic applied, contact us and we will gladly discuss your ideas. The hydrographics process can be used on metal, plastic, glass, hard woods and nearly any other item which can stand being submerged into water without damage
Hydrographics The Works...
In the normal process, the piece to be printed is cleaned; primed and a base coat is applied. A special polyvinyl alcohol film is printed with the graphic image to be transferred and is then floated on the surface of a large tank of water. An activator chemical is sprayed on the film to dissolve it into a liquid and activate a bonding agent. The piece is then slowly lowered into the tank, through the floating ink layer, which wraps around and adheres to it. After removing the piece from the water, the piece is washed down and allowed to dry and a top coat of clear lacquer is applied to protect the design and then polished.
