Not wanting to hijack the thread, but can you dip the hood and fenders of a Yamaha Rhino? Might want to get my yeti done too.

I prefer not to dip atv fenders, but there are companies out there that will dip them. Adhesion is a problem with atv fenders, due to them being made from polypropylene, and from the abuse most atv's get. I have a honda atv that came from the factory dipped, and it is peeling like crazy. If you do decide to get it dipped, just make sure you send it to a reputable company. Most fenders have a releasing agent in the plastic, and there are quite a few steps that have to be taken, to get proper paint adhesion. We do dip alot of polypropylene items, but just choose not to dip atv's due to the amount of abuse that some may receive.

I bought a 50 qt Yeti with the camo lid. Yeti dips the tan lid then attaches to a tan bottom. I don't know about how well the rest of these businesses dip a yeti, but whoever dips them for yeti sucks. My lid is scratched pretty bad and it is not abused. That is just everyday use. I will not buy another one like this one.

Whoever dipped the yeti, must not have used a very durable clearcoat. I use the most durable matte clear available. I have tested 7 different brands of clear coat. The one I am currently using takes sandpaper to scuff it. It will also hold up to 420 degree before it starts to burn.
On another note, I just signed a contract with Mossy Oak, so I have all of their patterns on the way.

Mossy Oak patterns are $175 for a complete shotgun. Any of the other patterns I carry are $160. The mossy oak patterns should be here in about 2 weeks.

Would love to get my four-wheeler fenders dipped, but I can't drop $675 on them.
