Ron is correct - I use only lexan based paints - don't use other paintes as they will flake. It also depends on the body you use, if its clear Faskolor paints by parma are great but if you are going for one color and a spray paint Pactra cans work well just make sure you do light coats expecially on metallic paints. Hope this helpsbensonly said:thanks for the info and the double check

I just looked, I used a pactra spray can, worked great for a simple one color job. also held up well to a few crashes with the heli.zielkeracing said:Ron is correct - I use only lexan based paints - don't use other paintes as they will flake.

I would not recommend that - just my 2 cents. Wash the body on the inside with cheap non cented dish wash - dry with a clean dry paper towel, blow off with high air then you are ready - then draw what you want to paint and blow off one more time - anyway have fun with it!hamster huey said:The paint will stick better if you lightly scuff the areas you want to paint with scotch brite or steel wool. The paint adheres better and the scuffs dissappear when painted. If your leaving the windows clear don't scuff them.
