Lightbulb painting camo on your gun and gear

well, I've heard a lot of people that love to have their gun done up with camo to look on par with their gear, and as I was browsing through the gun mods I stumbled across a nice juicy scam. Now fear not friends, his website was a scam, but thankfully what I found isnt.

I discovered Hydo dip inking... something or other, process to apply ink to uneven surfaces easilly, such as your favorite weapon/radio/mag/facemask, whatever.

now, its made by this company http://liquidprintone.com/ while confusing at first, its a simple process, and I found some videos I'm posting at the end of this thread.

the "mydipkit" it originally intended for hunters, so its all hunting style camo. Except I was looking around on the manufacturer's website and found this: http://liquidprintone.com/subcategory.php?id=16 Millitary style camo, Multicam, flektarn, urban, even pink tiger for those more in touch with our feminine side... and the ones that want to be shot in the face by the nearest sniper

anyway, I got a touch excited when I found this becuase I've been thinking of ways to get camo on guns that doesnt look like it was done with walmart spray paint and some masking tape.

I also mentioned videos, so here you are (this is applying hunting camo, the military camo is just a different ink, same process)
