  • The new Traxxas Maxx Slash is fantastic. It's a little bit of all the best things Traxxas has to offer lately. Crazy speed, crazy durability, and crazy good fun. Does it have any shortcomings? Not really. Should you upgrade it anyway? YES! I add a TON of upgrades to make it better, including a custom Lando Norris inspired paint job! The extra X is for eXtra upgrades!

    And I think no matter how simple the paint job may be, some intel on it is allways useful. Someone new to the hobby may be watching! Or some dumdum, like me! :p Paint job looks awesome! 👌
    Why not using all green upgrade parts? 😛
    I guess there isn't much variety, bodywise, in the basher department, is there? It's so rare to see one different from stock...

  • @i4nic256
    @i4nic256 Před měsícem

    I'm having no luck with Tamiya PS paint and liquid mask. When I peel up the liquid mask to paint a new area the paint on the previously done panel wants to life up also. CZcams makes it look soo easy.

    • @scalebuildersguild
      @scalebuildersguild  Před 29 dny +1

      Sounds to me like maybe you’re not prepping the liquid mask properly. You need to do at least three coats, in opposite brush directions and allow it to cure for at least 24 hours. Paint coats need to be very light, and multiple. Use a VERY sharp, new hobby blade as well. Maybe, do a test piece to confirm whether this method will work. Hope this helps!

    Thank you for showing the painting! If you have an applicable project at some point, I need a demo of detailing chrome on lexan (trim around windows, bumpers, etc). Did you cut the masks on the Cricut? Oracle removable?

    • @scalebuildersguild
      @scalebuildersguild  Před měsícem

      I use Oracal, but I don’t have a specific type for you. Detailing chrome is tough, but I cut masks using masking tape for those, and use the Traxxas Chrome spray product. Works great!

  • @VirtualAzua
    @VirtualAzua Před měsícem

    What kind of spray paint would you use? Assuming you aren't using an airbrush. I've had bad luck with Tamiya paint, better luck with Traxxas paint. But I'm new to the game and don't know if there's a better one. My problem is the spray nozzles not coming out even and hence a poor result. I've never seen the brand you used in this video on a store.

    • @scalebuildersguild
      @scalebuildersguild  Před měsícem

      OnPoint is a Canada-specific brand, but good news, it's the same formulation, and made in the same factory as the Traxxas branded paint!
