PreGen Ninja 250 - Powder coat, Hydro dipping, or plastidipping?

ninjarider707 · May 20th, 2015, 09:33 AM

Can you powdercoat fairings or only things that are metal? What about Hydrodipping fairings? Need an idea on how to get all my fairings the same color.

EDIT: Whoops

You can't delete.

You can request that @Alex do it, but it will be his call.

CTRL + ALT + DELETE

If this doesn't work, and Alex refuses to remove your new thread (Probably cause he is a collector of fine threads lol), unplug your computer and get outside and ride.

I think the thread has a life of its own at this point. Deleting it would anger the thread gods.

Plasti-dip is horrible I think, pits easy and comes out kinda like an egg shell texture. You can hydro-graph or just spray bomb it also can look into getting it wrapped. Powder coating is for metals, your fairings would melt trying this.

Powder coating is for metal. Hydro dipping is just cool if you are doing fancy designs in my opinion. For plain colors might as well just paint. Hydro dipping is pretty sweet. If you don't ask and Google hasn't helped you yet than how els will you learn.
