Painting Tips:
-
Your RC10CC Kit comes with a clear polycarbonate body and wing. You will need to prep the body and wing before you can paint them. Wash the inside thoroughly with warm water and liquid detergent. Dry the body and wing using a clean, soft, lint-free cloth. Use high quality masking tape to make masks for the windows and install them on the inside of the body
(RC cars get painted from the inside). -
Using high quality masking tape, apply tape to the inside of the body to create a design. Spray (either rattle can or airbrush R/C specific paint) the paint to the inside of the body
(prefferably dark colors first, lighter colors last).
NOTE: use ONLY paint that is recommended for use with (polycarbonate) plastics. If you do not, you can destroy the plastic body and wing!!!!).
It is recommended to wear a mask while painting.
After the paint has dried, cut the body and wing along the trim lines. Make
sure to drill or use a body reamer to make the holes for the body mounts, wing

Driver
Your RC10 Kit comes with a clear polycarbonate driver figure. You will need to
prep the driver figure before you can paint it. Wash the inside and outside
thoroughly with warm water and liquid detergent. Dry the driver figure using a
clean, soft, lint-free cloth. The driver figure can be painted from the inside
or the outside, depending on what type of finish you would like. If painted
from the inside, the painted sections will appear glossy. If painted on the
outside, the painted sections will appear flat or matte finished. Trim as
shown and install inside the body using strapping tape. After painting, cut
the body and wing along the trim lines.
NOTE: use ONLY paint that is recommended for use with (polycarbonate)
plastics. If you don’t, you can destroy the plastic body, driver figure, and
