can we get maybe a subforum specifically for paint jobs? i know its kinda mixed in with build threads but it would be cool to be able to look in one place for some nice vintage paintwork?

So I decided to remove an old paint in one body shell.

The body shell, even the wind shield was painted in black color. The previous owner tried...

If you guys have stripped a body and have the hazed windows, try spraying them with a clear coat. In most cases, that will make the windows clear again.

Hello everyone - I have a couple of car bodies that the paint is chipping. I would like to refinish as they have the stickers on them. I seen that tamiya has a paint remover. Is this fine to use to remove all the paint or is it just for cleaning up...

Last post

I've tried nitro fuel too. If DOT3 brake fluid won't remove it, nitro fuel won't even touch it. :(

Thanks for mentioning that about Pactra paint by the way, good to know.

And I'll post my nitro fuel results on the 18-19 yr old paint.

In addition to the Pro-Line suggestion, there are many choices for airbrush paint for Lexan bodies, including Parma's FasKolor series, Spaz Stix, Createx, AutoAir...and probably more. 8) The water-based ones are nice to use, no fumes and easy...

I can't say that I've ever tried layering paint like this so it was quite an interesting experiment for me. I shot the black metallic + a little silver metallic first, then cracked the masks and had at it with the secondary colors to make this...

The kiddo needed a new body too so we sat down and drew something up. For some reason he immediately gravitated towards tribal flame type artwork I did. Personally I'm not really a fan of tribals however...

Anybody sucessfully strip polycarb paint from a body and have the new paint job turn out good? What did you use? I have a couple bodies that are in decent shape just with nasty paint schemes.

Last post

- Orange/Citric Acid Stripper (cannot remember the manufacturer) works, but will damage the plastic, almost like pulls a layer of the lexan away and leaves a raised surface (best way I can describe it)

It will dissolve most plastics over time....
