Re: So what did you get in the post today ???

I use these a lot.

Re: So, what did you do RC today?

Finally working on something again. Disassembled the Traxxas SRT. Anyone know if it's possible to "whiten" the fiberglass yellowed chassis? Suppose I could attempt the peroxide bath in sunlight routine, but don't think it'll work on fiberglass. I bought a new Factory Works natural color up...

Re: So, what did you do RC today?

Cleaned and soaked the SRT rear bulkhead and fiberglass chassis in 12% peroxide for 34 hours, about 10 hours in sunlight. Before and after pics for comparison. The battery box sides were not in peroxide.

Re: Ultrasonic cleaner

Also have the small Harbor Freight unit here. I use the regular Simple Green concentrated formula in about a 5:1 to 6:1 ratio with water, I just pour it in and eyeball it.

Re: So, what did you do RC today?

Stripped the old worn anodizing off, prepped, painted and cleared the Traxxas SRT motor guard & plate. Now need to wet sand and buff. Really liking this color.

It's variable, 0-30V and 0-10A. I went a little overboard, as usual.
