Custom Paint Jobs Made In Water. Yes, Water.

Ever wonder how those amazing flaming paint jobs end up on a custom rig or hot rod? You know– the ones that look too good to have been done by hand?

Well chances are, they weren’t done by hand. They might have been done by water, with a process known as hydrographics. After checking this out, all that you thought you knew about painting may just fly right out the window.

I pride myself or should I say I did pride myself on my enamel work on custom autos. And while you really couldn’t beat enamel in the old days, nothing compares to this. I used to see some of these amazing paint jobs and thought they were a big decal and somebody did one hell of a job putting it on.

I watched the video twice just to make sure I wasn’t dreaming the whole thing. I must be getting old; I thought it was even better than sex.
