I have finally hired some help so that I can get some spare time to experiment with the two so that I can add them as another service that I offer. So far, so good.
I have received a DNP T3 Manifold, O2 Housing and 35R hotside for my first batch of ceramic coating which will be done in Satin Black.
I have gotten my hands wet (literally) in hydrographics. This is a very cool and new process to the customization world. There are thousands of patterns to choose from and surprisingly this stuff is very durable!
Here are 2 quick pictures of some parts in Carbon Fiber:
If you have any questions about either process, feel free to ask! If you would like to follow my progress with these projects daily, add me: www.facebook.com/justinspowdercoating
How much did it cost to get into hydrographics? I’ve been considering it for a while as side project stuff… but if there is already a vendor on here, I’m good with that too.
Currently the tank is 36x24x15. It was $100 to “try it out” it was only a meter long sheet though. I’ve done my research with suppliers and avoid the quick do a few small things at home markup that they do and buy some quality stuff. I plan on getting a much larger tank with a heater and filter/pump in a short amount of time.
Yeah your brakes won’t get much hotter than that if they even get that hot. There are a ton of track cars with powdercoated brakes that have had them down for years without issue.
