That was an excellent tutorial! Appreciate it
This is the best video that I’ve seen on CZcams to guide through how to properly paint an RC car! ...and it looks really beautiful! Love those flames!🔥 👌🏻😎Thank you so much!! I have all of my supplies ready to go to attempt my first one! ❤️😁
So great to see you back. We all kind of missed ya. Still love your warped sense of humor and your great tech vids. If you need anything let me know.
I was digging it with just the pinstripe flames! Looks awesome, thanks for showing everyone how it's done.
I would definitely love to see more painting videos. You do some nice work. I got 3 bodies at home waiting for paint and this video helps me out. Thank you
Love the super sleek chrome!! Great job!
You made that look so easy. Awesome job. 👍🏻
Great paint job and tutorial! Thanks
Just want to chime in and say this is one of my favorite vids of yours.

EXACTLY the look i want on my truck. Great result.
Excellent channel. 👍&🔔
Dude that's nice I've really been thinking about getting back into the RC scene I use to race them back in the day. Watching this I could get into painting bodies as a hobby and get back into racing them. Great video

Braddah that is awsum thank you for sharing 🤙
Awesome! I took notes. 🙌
Subbed for this.
Great video.
Sick! Great tutorial!!!!!!
Thank for your time the body. Look great
Once I saw the slash bodies you did for Marks boys I had to find your channel. Very nice tutorial, makes me think maybe I could paint a body! Thanks! Jim
I really enjoy painting the bodies for rc cars. Mostly because I can try out different ideas that I want to try on a real car. If I'm happy with it on the rc car I will go ahead and do it on the real thing. There are also the hard polycarbonate bodies that you need to paint on the outside and those are great for trying out body mods too.
Looks freakin sick man.
Great job love how the chrome came out. I wish I could find that body GTO I awesome..
thanks
Thanks for making this! I was hoping to see how you painted up that Mustang body you had on the shelf.
Really nice
We need more RC related content!! More more more!!! 😁😁🤘🏻
Awesome!! Wish youd showed more details on the flames but still awesome!!! Truly a master at the craft sir!! Actually wanted to gift a few bucks...
great video
Sweet im trying my first one now....doing general lee for my nitro rs4-2
For those looking for liquid masks, AMAIN HOBBIES carries Bitty designs, and Spazstix liquid masks. Bob Smiths' industries liquid mask is hard to find as I think it was discontinued. Mike D, no wonder Traxxas comes to you. Nothing short of breathtaking paint jobs. I wish I could do a 10th of what you can do. Insane, bro.
Thanks, and yes...if I can't get my regular liquid mask I use Spaztix. It's pretty close to what I buy in bulk.
Dude you got insane skill lol nice job
Awesome video! Please do more paint how to videos :)
Wow I only thought the old school way was how everyone did this! Thanks man
I've watched this video a few times now and I just noticed the KC's paint shop hat! 😁👍
Very nice
Good stuff
I like to the paint job. I would enjoy more videos of painting. I very new to the RC world
Looks amazing. I wonder whether the same process would work in 1/24 / 1/28 slotcar or RC bodies. The bodies are super thin so I‘d be concerned to cut through them or weaken them too much. Also in those small bodies I imagine it would be very difficult to work with the knife and also to cut stuff like the chrome trim masking so that it looks good. Your trim looked phenomenal! I have no idea how you managed to cut the masking so that it looks so equally wide throughout all the chrome trim?!
Awesome 👍. Would like to know what are the brand of these body shells. Can't find a 1/7 rally!
Damn good job
Sick!!
Thank you sir. I really enjoyed learning from this. I need an airbrush kit. Lol.
And liquid mask. That stuff almost seems like having a cheat code.
Good evening Sir. I learned something new today. Thank you. I've never washed the lexan bodies and I've 3 so far. Liquid mask is the way to go. Where can I buy it?
You make it look so easy lol.
Any tips on trimming the pin stripe lines, especially the curved areas of the flames?
Neat video, thanks for sharing. I know there are a variety of liquid masking materials available. Do you have a favorite brand for using on your RC bodies? I like the Bob Dively for use on slot car bodies.
Awesome video keep up the good work, in order to use that mini air spray you are using, does it need some sort of air compressor ?
Yes, I run a small air compressor.
Just curious, with those faskolor paints...are you adding any sort of reducer to them at all? I keep having clogging and splatter issues. But I also have a cheap airbrush gun so that could be why. Would appreciate any info!
Anyway you can add a list of products list and where to buy like the paints and bodys
Where can I get that body! Great tutorial man!
Amazing work so clean looks easy lol but what kind of air brush do u use
Iwata HP-CS
Wow what an amazing job i wish i could get you to do a xmaxx body 4 me
Thanks
Because it's hard to find purple iodized Traxxas parts, I think a spiderman theme body suits the e revo well. Metallic red, white, black and blue. Oh and awesome video, really cool
Man this is exactly what I needed. Definitely a super informative vid. Appreciate it so much. How much time did you allow between each coat that you applied of the liquid mask?
As soon as it looks dry, you're good to go for the next coat. I put it in front of a fan and the first coat usually takes 20-30 minutes before I do the next. I let the final coat dry overnight
@@TexasOatmeal Dude I actually just finished watching the vid. Man that body looks nothing short of spectacular. Wow. 😳 Do you normally wait till the last step to cut out your wheel wells?
Also, is the liquid mask that you haven’t peeled out yet still easy to see after you have painted over it? - Thanks man!!
BEST VIDEO I am 14 and want to make one thank you.
Its super 👍🧡
after years of brushing it on, I used a paint spray gun from Harbor frieght and sprayed in on the bodies, and it turned out much better. I didnt have any thin areas causing me problems, I only had to do 1 good coat, and sprayed a couple areas that looked a little thin. But that works great right out of the bottle..
My problem with spraying it on is the overspray that gets everywhere. It does go on more evenly but I have never had issues with thin spots anyway. Plus I can just sit on the couch inside and mask multiple bodies at a time. Lol
How do u cut the holes out after its painted
Nice i3, I have one too!
Where the heck are you getting those Parma GTO Bodies?
please more
Nice work on the paint job! How many days did it take you from start to finish and the days in between?
I liquid mask the body the night before so it will fully cure. Painting it took maybe 4 hours total.
You should open a RC paint shop 💰💰💰
Great Video... very helpful thank you.... What brand liquid mask do you use
I make my own but if I was buying off the shelf, bittydesigns and Parma brands both work well
@@TexasOatmeal do you have any info on what you use to make your mask? New subscriber, so haven't looked through all your vids yet. But thanks for this awesome tutorial. Love the chrome!
Had no problem if you did all the bodies,you make it not boring.
Where can I buy that GTO body was that a 66 or 67
very informative video but cant find the liquid paint masking that you use in the video is there another one that works as well as that brand?
Bitty designs has one I think.
Awesome video man, so when you'd finished the black and was ready to do the red pinstripe on the flames had you already cut the liquid mask or did you cut the pinstripe in after you added the black coat lol
So in other words do you make all the cuts before painting or do them as you go 🤔
All cuts before any paint
nice hat. lol, live just a few miles from KC's shop
Do you have a video out on how to cut them out after paint?
