Re: Camo Dip Kit
Seems simple enough; I watched several videos on youtube of people doing it themselves; I ended up just sending my stock to a local place and I actually watched them do the process; all in all it seemed pretty much the same process; happy i had them do the job though; came out perfect! Good luck to you if you decide to try it yourself. I wouldn't mind trying to start on small things and work my way up to a gun stock.

Very nice to be able to DIY this. I bet others get in this market and the price comes down. Too cool!

Re: Camo Dip Kit
very cool technique. I too would be interested in watching someone do it. I don't think I would fork out the money to experiment.

Re: Camo Dip Kit
Looks cool to but I think I would still spray a coat of duracoat satin clear on top for additional durability.

The company here in the Spokane area charges $299-399 for a basic AR.

Wow! Down here in Georgia, there's a place in Atlanta that I've talked to on several occasions that will do it for a fraction of that cost. If I'm not mistaken, he quoted me 175 for an AR-Style Rifle.

From everything that I have seen, there is such a huge demand for this, it would be a great business to get into!! So many of the different companies that I have checked out are too swamped to take on any new business right now.
It wouldn't take long to get all your investment back on the equipment!!

Re: Camo Dip Kit
I've done it. Did my wife's .223 here is a link with some pics. It's a lot of prep work but reward in the end. Good luck.

Re: Camo Dip Kit
I wouldn't mind the DIY method I wouldn't know how to tackle components like knobs and hinges (folding stock). Do they get covered too?

Re: Camo Dip Kit
Make sure you get the right one mydipkit.com is the better one with it you do not need to mix stuff together. Don't make the same mistake i made by watching youtube vids mydipkit comes with a link to their video that helps allot. i got pretty good at it with some practice.

Re: Camo Dip Kit
Yeah I'd go with mydipkit. I looked at the camodipkit website. If you look at their "examples" of dipped items you can see the faint mydipkit watermark. They stole pictures from mydipkit!

Don’t do it, OP.
LOTS of really bad reviews of that shady outfit.
People not getting the product they ordered, low quality junk when they do deliver.
Good luck getting a refund.
Just go with a reputable professional hydro dip outfit and save yourself the headache.

What kind of responses did you get the last 5 times you asked this question over the last 7 years?
