Dipping does not work nearly as well as it did before the lacquer paint went thru many changes. I was one of those who used to put 4 gallons of water followed by 1 gallon of lacquer and dipped my parts. Worked great. Though this process looks great and matches an original it does lack longevity so it is really only good for a trailer queen. To be quite honest I have been afraid to try the water method with the current lacquers as this could be an almost $300 mistake if it does not work so I now just dip them in straight lacquer. May latest pail of paint is over 3 years old with no issues. I do not believe the water method will work with any other type of paint other than lacquer but perhaps others have tried with success.
