Adafruit Hydro Dipping Sheets - 10 Pack of A4 Size Sheets

Hydro dipping is a creative and interactive technique for transferring printed designs onto any surface. This process is compatible with materials that can retain a base coat and be submerged in water.

Ideal for enhancing 3D printed projects, molded, and cast parts, hydro dipping can cover entire shapes with vibrant prints. You've likely seen stunning applications on motorcycle helmets and ceramic figures. Using an inkjet printer, create designs with solid, abstract, or repeating patterns for best results, as aligning art during dipping can be tricky.

After printing, float the A4 size thermal paper on warm water: the ink rests on top, encapsulated by a thin clear polymer. Carefully submerge your piece at a 45-degree angle to transfer the image onto your project. If results are unsatisfactory, the ink can be removed before setting. Mastering this technique requires practice, but comprehensive DIY videos are available for guidance with valuable tips.

This pack includes 10 sheets of thermal paper, optimized for water-based pigment inks. Sheets can be resized and reused with sufficient border space remaining. An innovative way to bring your objects to life with custom designs!
