Hydrographics for exterior automotive Aluminum  

+++++

Is it possible to apply a Hydrographic coating to an exterior automotive aluminum part, such as a wheel, that is as durable as a paint application? It should of course withstand testing requirements. Is it also possible to use the same application with steel wheels?

You should ask that Q to the supplier of the hydrographic film, he knows better and has personal interest in helping you.

You can definitely use Hydro Graphic for outdoor applications. We've done many of wheels for motorcycles.
