Water Transfer Process is easy to learn, and the results are
outstanding.
Here’s how the Process works
► Film Selection
Choose an image or pattern from our library of hundreds of water
printing films.
► Base Coat
A base color coat is applied to the objects which are being
processed.
► Film Transfer Prep
Hydrographic film is carefully placed on the water’s surface in the
dipping tank. The film is water soluble, and dissolves, leaving
only the pattern floating on the water. Surface tension will allow
the pattern to curve around any surface.
► Activation
The floating image is sprayed with a special activator which
dissolves the components in the pattern’s colors without affecting
its structure and appearance.
► Transfer
The item is immersed in the water through the floating layer of
liquefied pattern. The pressure of the water will cause the pattern
to smooth itself evenly around the object in all places and adhere
to it. The end result is the part completely covered in the pattern
of your choice.
► Washing & Drying
The printed parts are washed to remove any residue of the printing
film and are allowed to dry.
► Clear Coating
After a close quality control inspection, the printed objects can
be clear coated to protect the surface and to provide a shiny
appearance.
Safety Equipment
You will need a high-quality respirator, latex or nitrile gloves,
and paint sleeves. Make sure to wear your respirator when you are
spraying the activator, paint, and clear coat.
