Anyone tried Carbon Hydro dipping parts?

Has anyone used this company before?

I have seen this hydro dipping in the US before but didn't know anyone in the UK offered the service.

I have a few small plastic bike parts that I am thinking of having dipped in carbon look or camo look.

Apparently they can do wheels and a set of four would be £400 to do.....an alternative to powdercoating but not sure how the finish would last. But the have some wild designs that would be different on a car.

I know of a couple of cars who used this method for engine bay plastics.

I do business with a company called pit stop designs in north Weald, Essex.

They do this, pretty impressive stuff, sure they have a website you could get some ideas from.

Not sure where you are based, but these guys are next to my office in Exeter and their work is very good. Have been tempted to have some of my bits done as I have some exposed carbon.

This is a website I've seen before-

gun cammo is a fairly big part of it, so many will be gun related, but as long as they have big enough tanks, they should be able to do it.

There are pics on MTB bits, although I've never used them.
