The only problem ( probably ) is that you need to know Spanish, to enroll in this 8 hour course....These people are in Barcelona, Spain.... ( Just keeeedin, Glenn ! )
...and while you are at it, check out the price of the WATER TRANSFER PACKAGE equipment that they use to accomplish these tasks ( they offer other cheaper models, I think ):
WTP PACKAGE 300C Price = €84,216.80 ( Euros )
This is the actual price of this WTP machine, IN DOLLARS:
$115,149.63 US Dollars
Regardless.....I still say it is absolutely frikin amazing !!
I think that Joe is right......Here we go, again.......There goes the "wrap business", for many, just like sign painting did for many of us.
Thanks for sharing, Joe, Ol' Man......That was very cool !

Here is another vid posted by the same person on how to do it...
If you observe, when you click on the above link, you will see that on the right side of the page there is a column containing links to different videos and you will, also, find, among those videos, the one about the hydroprinting technique.......When I opened the original link that Joe posted, it took me directly to the one referring to hydroprinting technique....I don't know why......But, strangely, if you click on the same link, now, it goes straight to the one referring to the color changing of car paints and not the hydroprinting one that I got, then.
It may be that both links ( and others, too ) were originally posted by Justin Jimmo, in his You Tube page:
This is the best explanation I can give you.....I agree with you.....Hydroprinting does not have anything to do with fake color changing paint.
It had to be some kind of glitch in Justin Jimmo's link.
So, my answer to Glenn was based on the fact that I thought that he was talking about hydroprinting.......while he was, strictly, referring to the fake color changing process.
It's all Justin Jimmo's fault !.......His bad !

Neil,
You may want to contact them, for any questions, at this website:
I think the concept is brilliant, that's becuase Ive been saying for years, that it would be in car companies best interest to find a technology that they could spray on a car, that the color could be defined at the dealership, or body shops, even truck lettering could be done by uploading graphics into a central computer that controls the paint
I dont know how it will happen but it WILL happen Posted by Neil D. Butler (Member # 661) on :
Just a matter of s little more time Bob... they'll go a bit further and have video adverts as well.
