  • Painting a clear body shell is not too difficult if you have painted something before, just a bit different as the paint goes on the inside. The key to a great result is taking your time masking and cleaning thoroughly to avoid bubbles and contamination.

    I'd give real money to have had you walk that finished product outside in the sun for us. I can absolutely see that the camera did not do that justice. probably would've in the sun, maybe. man that's a beautiful job!

    Aren't you supposed to wash the inside of the the body first before masking ??

      Yes. I first use a fine scotch brite to lighrly scuff (not on windows) then clean with dawn dish soap. (Let air dry) then mask. Spaz-stix makes a good body prep as well.

    Top job but should of used fine sandpaper on the wheel arch's to get rid of the roughness and smooth them out , same with post holes use you straight scissors to cut the excess and a very slight rub with fine 240 grit but yes top job looks good.

    Thanks for sharing this technique, I am painting a smaller scale, clear 1/24 slot cars; so you gave me some great tips, my question is for clear bodies like these, what are the recommended paint brand ?
    Also, the smaller clear bodies don't come with cutouts for the Windows etc. What would you recommend, like blue masking paint tape ?
    Last, can you list what scissor you were using?
    Thanks Mike

    pro tip from a restoration tv show.. when painting.. make some type stand and hang your item from it and let it dangle in the air. they say it helps the paint not run. painting in the air is what they say to do
