There are many how to videos showing lexan body painting, but many of them only show part of the project, or they talk and talk and show nothing. This video is an attempt to show the whole process, from trimming the lexan, to body mount and alignment first, then cleaning and masking and then layer painting to final coat. Hope this video you will agree is one of the best! Thanks for watching!

Great video - just what I was looking for. Some good tips in there about practicing cutting and peeling the lexan, and mounting before painting. I was a bit sceptical at first about the title "Best" but I have to say I think this is the best video for anyone new to painting lexan bodies. I've watched loads of videos, but this one covers everything very clearly. Thanks.

man that body is almost too good for the 2wd slash!

I didn't know these lexan bodies were painted on the inside and removed the protective film. How can I replace it?
BTW one of the best how-to videos on this topic.

It's not perfect, you stated! It's a darn good job, cause these bodies are always temporarily if the car rolls over then snaps in half and then to the next body job.

Scuff the surface with green Scotch Brite for better adhesion.

Step it up to a brushless system.
