Hello there! This is a small, short intro to Hydro Dipping. It's a simple, easy thing to do. Here's a description of hydrodipping 
The term HYDRO DIPPING comes from HYDRO (greek for water) and DIPPING for (well you know what dipping means)... anyhow, Hydro dipping uses the old phrase "oil and water dont; mix" which is to say, Water can dissolve or absorb almost anything....but it does not absorb Oil well.  This is the same reason Sea Otters and penguins have oily hair or feathers on their coat- it helps keeps the cold ocean water out and helps them stay warm.  It’s also the reason why oil spills are very hard to clean up and horrible for the environment and wildlife. Oil also has a different density, than water, which is a fancy way of saying that when you apply an oil based substance like paint, onto water, it floats.  Spray paint is an aerosol, which is another fancy way of saying it has pressurized gas inside the can to help the paint get out when you press the button.  This makes the paint spray out in circular patterns.  When we use an applicator to mix the various paint colors into a swirl, then slowly dip our primed surface into the swirl, the spray paint is absorbed into the surface of our object, and the water in the tank keeps on repelling the oil paint, pushing more and more of our spray paint into our object
