Why Get A New WLTOYS ... Get Yourself The WLTOYS A959
zhlédnutí 3,5KPřed 2 lety
WLTOYS has been coming out with some new stuff, but is the WLTOYS A959 still the cheap rc car king? We got a cheap wltoys rc car and converted it into a brushless a959b, but not before we tried it out stock. Pretty surprised how well this brushless a959 and brushed a959 did for such a cheap rc car.

    How-To: Use a Paint Stripper 1. Apply a THICK LAYER of stripper on the surface using a brush, syringe, or a unadvised "pour on" method. 2. Wait for the stripper to soak into the paint, you will know it has soaked in because it will cause the paint to expand and lift (aka "crinkle") 3. Wipe away the affected paint. 4. Repeat steps until paint is removed. I have never needed to "scrub" paint off when using a paint stripper/remover, it literally just wipes away. Hope this helps someone else out there.

    If you want to get sharp edges using masking tape, you can spray a clear coat and let it dry before spraying your color paint. this way the clear coat will fill up all the leaks under the masking tape.

  • @williamkelly2467
    @williamkelly2467 Před 10 měsíci

    You were using the ELO incorrectly. You are supposed to take a paint brush, put a generous amount on the end, and spread it all over the body. You will need to keep putting more ELO on the brush as you continue to cover the body with a somewhat thick layer of ELO. Then, you need to let it sit until the paint starts to crinkle up and lift off the body all by itself. 3 minutes is too short and the paint won't have enough time to start lifting properly. You also shouldn't have to do any major scrubbing to get the paint off after it has crinkled up.
