I’m so glad I watched your video before attempting this. I figured the paint would chip but no one talks about it. I decided to purchase the t-Rex version because I like the green of the car body and I am going to just paint the roof and add stickers and accessories to turn it into a woody!
I HATE it at this point. My son dropped it on one side on the concrete and the whole thing got scraped down to the blue again. Tried to repaint and of course it can’t. Any time a kid touches it the paint scratches off. Don’t do this unless you’re trying to be an influencer and sell spray paint! lol. I can’t even sell this thing! It’s such a headache.
Ok, I'm so glad you posted this. I was considering doing this too....not so sure now. How has it held up? Did you do end up doing a sealer spray? Thanks for this one! Your little boy is just adorable too
It’s held up okay - it only comes off with contact, and not by itself, so it’s better than I thought. I never did a sealer but I wish I had. I was afraid it would look shiny which I didn’t want!
@@AnnaSudberry lol awww.. thanks for the reply. I'll give this project a miss! Lol But, I do think I'll purchase the blue truck new and some chrome pinstriping to jazz it up a bit!😊
Thank you for posting this video! You confirmed everything my husband said would happen! I was thinking of painting one I got for free but … not anymore 😵💫
It looks pretty bad right now after being left outside for a few weeks. I tried to touch it up and accidentally sprayed yellow paint on the silver trim…ugh!! I don’t want to discourage anyone from doing it but…just to warn you that it may not look very good :/
I literally just sold this for $10 on marketplace after the paint fully flaked off outside in the rain. I’m still traumatized by this project. Let me know how it goes!
I missed the links, thank you. I see you used an all-in-one paint. I know it says it is for “most plastics”, but they don’t usually work for most plastics. They sell spray paint specifically for plastic that bonds better, but will still scratch off if the damage is deep enough. I haven’t had an issue with the stuff I’ve used this far, but it is only 1-2 years old and it wasn’t a toy my kid was crashing into things. Super cute project though!
Thanks for a genuine look at the hard world this took! Just wondering which spray paint you used? Ive already purchased things to do this to our old dingy coupe so i feel obligated 😂 but i bought a rustoleum paint and i guess ill also checkout some sealant ¯\_(ツ)_/¯ much love to you and your family 💛
I haven’t had anymore treatments! I had a baby and couldn’t do them during pregnancy and breastfeeding. I really need to get more done. They look awful

Update: it didn’t hold up at all. Total fail. Has scrapes all over it from being touched to any surface.

@@chloesmum1884 highly recommend the chrome trim or custom keys and stickers! They haven’t budged.

I’m going to attempt but I’m going to sand it completely down and let’s see what happens.

You don’t show the spray paint. Was it made for plastic???
All items are linked in the description and yes, it was for plastic!

@heatherbutler3192 it said “perfect for plastic” in the description 🤷🏼♀️ all I can say is that it was the worst waste of money I’ve ever spent lol
