Hydrographics ?
 

I'm thinking of trying hydrographic film on my fairing panels, I've ordered a small basic kit to try it out, will update once I've had a go.

just wondering if anyone had tried it or had any tips ?

Tell us how you get on. You doing the versys?

That looks epic, let us know how you get on.

Re: Hydrographics ?
 

well it's something I've seen the results but not tried before, so I'll start with something small see how it goes, but if it turns out OK, I aim to do both sides of the front fairing on the Versys and perhaps the bottom half of the screen.

How hard wearing is it?

Re: Hydrographics ?
 

you're supposed to clear lacquer it, so should be as durable as paint.

Looks like an interesting option then if its going to last the same. How does that compare to a paint job price wise then?

Re: Hydrographics ?
 

Hmmmm, well I'd guess if I don't screw it up to much (and waste film); I'd imagine doing both front fairing panels would be £40-50, but it's not so much cost more the fact you can have anything from carbon look, to flames/skulls or even snake skin, which would have to be airbrushed to get a similar effect otherwise.
