Recent Projects April 2014

Back to listing

We work on a huge variety of paint and dip jobs each month and there is always a stand out project that we all agree looks the absolute nuts.

This month we had the pleasure to customise a Suzuki GSX 1400.

THE LOWDOWN

The Bike: Suzuki GSX 1400
The Process: Water Transfer Printing
The Colour: House of Kolor Custom Kandy Lacquer
The Cost: From £600

We were commissioned to carry out this work by a local customer called Ian who had visited the Wicked Coatings show room to look at a variety of samples.

By his own admission the bike was beginning to look a little tired and in need of a vibrant refresh and so we talked him through a number of customisation options. Ian was keen to find a pattern and finish that would breathe life back into his beloved machine –  and in time for the start of the 2014 motoring season!

Having explained the process and what was possible to do – Ian decided to have the petrol tank and seat unit of his Suzuki GSX 1400 dipped in Hades water transfer with house of Kolor custom Kandy Lacquer.

He then opted to have the side panels and front mud guard of the bike coated in our authentic carbon dip.  The combination of these two methods has led to a seriously stylish result and Ian is already planning his next Hydrographics project with us!

Fancy a similar customisation for your own machine? Get in touch now or call us on 01202 622258. We are always happy to talk you through your options and advise on how best to approach your project.
