Have you ever taken the time to look at the interior of a car and actually noticed that the wood inlay isn't really wood, but plastic? Not many people realize this, and that is the beauty of our service - hydrographics.
Hydrographics (Water Transfer Printing) is a revolutionary printing process by which objects are 3-dimensionally decorated using the principal of water pressure application.
Water Transfer Printing makes it possible to print endless choices of patterns on either flat objects or ones with complex contours without leaving voids or seams.
First, you pick a solid, water-safe possession that you want to update. You then choose a pattern to fit your needs (camoflauge, wood-grain, carbon-fiber, etc.) and send us the information. We will respond to you quickly and make sure all of the details are settled. Next, you can send us your item to be "dipped". When it arrives, we will put it through the water transfer printing process. First, a base coat will be applied. After drying, we cut out a film pattern to fit your piece. We float the film on top of the water in a specially designed computerized tank and spray it with an activator. Once this is done, we carefully push your object through the film, which adheres to the object, and into the water below. We then wash off the excess, and cover it with a strong, durable clear coat, which guarantees a life-long finish.
H2O Imaging is here to serve you. If you don't see anything on our site that you want, contact us, and we will help you out. Do you have a design or idea in mind that you couldn't find here? Then let us know!
Thanks

Meet the owners of H2O Imaging:
Chuck Racey and Jon Bray
Both from rural areas in Southern Illinois, Jon and Chuck have made the outdoors their way of life. From a very young age, each started hunting and fishing in the heart of the Shawnee National Forest and that carried on into young adulthood where they first met working at the same “day job” where a shared love of the outdoors made them friends right away.
