anyone do or have had done water dipping plastic?

[sniper7]

I bought a used atv and the plastics are quite faded. Great shape with almost no scratches but just ugly faded. I was interested in getting it camp dipped or something similar. The cheaper the better though. Also if you have an idea on price that would be great. It is a Yamaha grizzly 450

Give these guys a call, they come highly recommended, they are just south of 470 on Santa Fe.

Will do, I've seen their stuff before. A woodland camo would be awesome!

Just talked to them. They wanted $600-700 to do it. Uh..no.

Smear peanut butter all over the plastic, let it sit for a while, then rub it off.

if you want to water dip it just loan it to my cousin, he's great at running them into canals

What's that do?

Might make them all shiny again. You could try a small section first. People do it on jeep fender flares all the time.

Might make them delicious. Either way, win!

As a vw owner I can say it's the ONLY thing that kept my arches black

I would say it's not hard to do, at all, but.... ATV plastics are bigger than what could easily fit in a tub. You can buy a "dip kit", or all the items you need off ebay (the "activator", and the film). The spray paint they give you is just a normal paint that you can buy at walmart. Believe me, this shit is super simple. If you have a container big enough, doing the plastics would also be easy, just need a big enough container.

Also, sorry... another way to go if you have a spray gun, is to get colored plasti-dip. The shit really lasts when it is put on a clean surface, and let to cure. You can also just peel it off when you decide to change colors. My cousin did this with his MR2, and it lasts (when done right), and doesn't peel off unless you really try to take it off. I've decided that I'm doing this to our Volvo when I have the time and money to get my own spray gun.

Good info spyder. My uncle had that done on his Benz to black the whole thing out. Looks awesome!

I had a big tub that would easily fit the plastics. It is a big container used as an outdoor fish pond. Is it just water they fill it with and lay the film in?
