Painting:
Prepare the Polycarbonate Body for painting by washing it thoroughly (inside and out) with warm water and liquid detergent. Dry the
Body with a clean, soft cloth. Use the supplied Window Masks to cover the windows from the inside. A high-quality masking tape should
be used on the inside of the Body to mask off any stripes, panels, or designs that you wish to paint on the Body. Use acrylic lacquer or other
paints recommended for polycarbonate. (NOTE: Polycarbonate RC CAR BODIES ARE MEANT TO BE PAINTED FROM THE IN-
SIDE!) Apply paint to the inside of the Body. Remove the masking tape for the next color and continue. Try to use darker colors rst. If you
use a dark color after a light color, apply a coat of white paint over the lighter color before applying the darker color, or if you are painting
over white, coat it with silver. This will help prevent the darker color from bleeding through the lighter color.
Stickers:
After the Body is mounted, REMOVE THE PROTECTIVE FILM ON THE OUTER SURFACE, now you can apply the stickers.
Remove the sticker from the sheet that you wish to apply to the Body. Before removing the protective backing, nd the desired location.
Remove the backing completely and reattach an edge of the sticker to the shiny side of the backing material. Using the rest of the backing
material as a handle, position the sticker and press rmly into place to complete its application.
