You want the yellow can. Real Easy-Off seems better than the off brands but definitely has a stronger odor.

I have even used the Dollar Tree brand. It takes more time but still gets the job done.

Always looking for new and interesting ways to waste money.

Hello All,

I have recently inherited a gold anodized RC100. Will show it and would like to get some feedback on what would be the best way to restore it if possible. I was intrigued when I got it, as I have seen my father piecemeal this when I was...

Sorry for the double post,

I was able to find a link to some more manuals, the manual for the RC100 and the RC200 turns out to be very similar. I now have a more clear direction on taking the car apart to reassemble it.

Does anyone know where I can get the gold-ish/yellow anodized screws that screw through the bottom of the old gold tub? I've had to return a couple orders now to different sellers because their pictures show the gold screws but what I keep getting...

Last post

The color of the vintage 8/32 screws varied widely from greenish to goldish. The classic rere came with screws that are very greenish. Been my experience that snap easily.

I went to visit the Pargu store in South Korea earlier this year, and while perusing his shop came across his last gold aluminum rims for the vintage RC10. It must have been in storage for many years. These are the 1.7 rear and 1.9 fronts (I think...

I tried a set of those tires on some JConcepts Detonator wheels, but the sidewalls rubbed on the carriers. They may have cleared truck carriers but I never got around to trying.

It's ugly. Very ugly. But i think I'm onto something. this is the first time I've got it to work. The color is pretty close to the original gold but completely flat. I think i need to do a better job of preparing the metal after I strip the original...

I've had this chassis safely tucked away for well over ten years. My plan was always to find a matching nose plate and build a shelf queen with it. Today I was comparing it to all of my other RC10 parts and ... well ... what is it? :lol:

Blue...

Last post

I have black nose tubes and a black Litespeed Litesink for the build. I'm not so sure about using a black nose plate though...
