How I Paint An RC Car Body

[@imthejaybird]

Lol! That window mask struggle is real!!! 10/10 can relate.

[@DSTROYRvids]

It was so old and ultra tacky. Next time if I get a body with masking tape, I will use vinyl application tape instead.

[@ByRude]

Looks so dope, got the drift lowrider vibe goin. Throw some gold works on it and take it to the car show lol

[@DSTROYRvids]

That is a great idea! haha

[@kennysilvers-z4x]

Super friggin cool! Thanks for the lesson in fades and sparkle. Will try this on my Losi buggy for sure. Cheers!

[@ralphhowing3473]

Your an artist brother, me I'm not that's why I do kits and use box art, works for me!!!

[@BCDS.]

The fade is perfect. Great work

[@DSTROYRvids]

Thank you I was nervous about it, but took my time and it worked out.

[@steveoe36]

Great video. The car looks awesome. Thanks for letting me know about it. Now you’ve got to do a video of you drifting it.

[@cams5432]

I would love to see more of these! So sick watching it all get done.

[@DSTROYRvids]

I need to paint a few more bodies, so expect more.

@@DSTROYRvids As I see this message, I am in the process of cutting out masking for the windows on my Pandora Skyline 2000GT-R body. Already designed a custom livery which I am going to try and paint into the body aswell! Cant wait to see what you got planned!

[@trashheap5590]

When you said la’me flake I thought of that line from Joe dirt😭😂 “Don’t try to church it up now!” Seriously tho some insane detail with the paint.👌 I could never have that much patience taping.

[@DSTROYRvids]

HAHAHA😁

[@gabrielmoreno6870]

Hell yeah looks sick! Big fan of your airbrush work!

[@sundayromance7253]

Dude that was so freaking awwwmazing came out siiiiick and inspired my paint theme. I'm definitely stoked to paint my RC body tomorrow. Going heavy pink flake glitter neon pink spray paint and black paint etc going to do some crazy masking and layering

[@DSTROYRvids]

I am glad I could help inspire you to paint a body. Did you paint it yet?

[@sundayromance7253]

@@DSTROYRvids I sure did but the black leaked through and messed up the Beautiful flake

[@chedder72]

Looks amazing. You got skills!

[@MegaWolfman76]

You should use a blow dryer or a heat gun to dry paint faster between coats speeds up the process and works really well

[@yaboi5686]

Super dope always wondered how ppl got the glitter effect, really good paint job👍💯

[@DSTROYRvids]

Thank you!

Thank you! Glad I changed my mind.

[@TeamSaikoRC]

[@DSTROYRvids]

Do it! I finally replied a year later. ugh

[@teofeo333]

Dude! I would swear that you used Iridescent paint for the color fade in some areas. Amazing illusion created by YOU kimosabee. Nice Job!

[@robbiereynolds1974]

Sick! Looks 3646477373373 times better than my Ford F-150 body I did on my HPI nitro back in the day!!! LOL.

[@DSTROYRvids]

Haha, do you have a pic of the F150 body?

They body is made by APlastics.

[@greenie43]

Nice vid!! Could use some more painting skills! Subbed to support our community!! 😎👍

[@DSTROYRvids]

Thank you!

[@GRlMreefer]

I was researching videos to see if i should try liquid mask or use the small masking tape like that and i think I’m just gonna use the tape with as clean as your lines were. That body came out 👌

[@DSTROYRvids]

You can try both and see what works best for you. Thank you glad you liked out it came out.

[@GRlMreefer]

@@DSTROYRvids i went with the tamiya 3mm masking tape and did black with gold pearl on the back half and aluminum blue on the front half with a metallic silver 3mm outline. It turned out good for my first paint job in 7-8 years

[@GorillaFPV4life]

Just needs some window tint

[@DSTROYRvids]

I say I will spray a candy over the windows every time. But have remembered that each time I paint a body. No 🤦🏻‍♂️

[@FunkyStonedRC]

Where did u get the el camino body

[@DSTROYRvids]

I bought it at SuperG here is the link supergdrift.com/product/chevy-el-camino-1970-1-10-body-setaplastics-elcamino/

[@jnheyward5894]

Hey I have a Monte Carlo 1979 lowrider rc do you paint those body as well cause I’m looking for some who will paint mine I have the body and I’m willing to pay $200 dollars for this to be done please someone help me out thank you

[@DSTROYRvids]

@@jnheyward5894 I am assuming it is a RedCat. I need to look at a body. I think they have molded plastic bodies.

[@fredbradick8404]

Do you paint bodies for customers or is this just more of a hobby

[@figuresix]

No way I would use a paint that took that long to dry between each coat. Use a heat gun, or blow dryer. But never heard of paints where you had to let dry for that long with an airbrush. Such fine particals it should not take that long.. But hey not to bad of a job. Not a fan of the hood, but rest looks cool.
