Hydrographic film?

Anyone played around with hydrographic film, search here yielded zero hits, hadn't come across it before.

Looks interesting. I wonder what kind of ink is being used. If the film "dissolves in water" I assume the ink would need to be water resistant and have some kind of structural integrity to prevent it from dispersing. Looks simple in the video but I wonder if it really is - kind of like doing toner transfers.

back when Wheeler Dealers was still in england, with Edd, they used that ink on water stuff a few times. fixed the wheels on an RX-7 [series 11, #3] once, and the internal panels of a range rover [series 10, #3].
