Also watch my video on how to cut any body: ruclips.net/video/fA7HAp2Zn8I/видео.html In this vdeo i will show you step by step how to paint a RC body. I will explain all the basics so that you can paint your own body at home. For example i will paint my Arrma Limiless V2 body. You will need the following: -Clear body -Paint -Masking tape -Hobbyknife -Tweezers -Paper towels -Sponge or equal -Dishwashing soap or equal -Microfiber colth (leaves no small particles behind) -Brake cleaner -Clean/dust free work space to work -Well ventilated and clean paint space -Time Enjoy the video!
Lmao, right when you were saying the sides werent symmetrical, i was thinking "who cares, you can only see 1 side at a time." Then you said the same thing. The body looks great. Good job and thanks for the tutorial.
Great job! I'm sure Picasso also had some imperfections. I think the paint job looks great because we all know how hard it is to paint Lines on a RC Car. Thank you!
Thank you, your welcome! And when i drive 200kmph+ you dont see it :P That is why i used this 1, 2, 3 & 6mm tape. It makes making lines much easier! The trick it to apply it without gaps at the border of the tape so no paint will go under, and taking it of slowly after the paint is half dry/wet (thats how i did it)
I gues nobody :P. I could have zoomed out a bit and put that in the video so i looks perfect. But i wanted to keep it real. Same at with my other DIY video's, sometimes its not perfect. Thank you! I am also happy with the result. Now i am planning to paint a GT body for the Limitless but its hard to think of a nice collor sceme. Atleast i have cutted the body and it fits!
Thank you! It took me a long time to place all the marking tape. Including the paintjob it took me arround 10hours in total. The trick it so take you time especially woth the tape, as long as you have more tape you can do it over and over again. When painting starts its permanent. This was my 4th paintjob so its not like i am a seasoned pro.
@@DaveKoko Your welcome! And thank you! I also have a video on how to cut a body (if you still need to cut) where i explain step by step how to do that :D
Thanks buddy! I am also really happy about the paint job and it still looks nice to this day! When ever i have a new body the most difficult thing for me to do is to come up with a nice paintjob. Sometimes it takes me weeks and weeks to think of something nice.
@@gihonda127 It does! ;D and the best moment is when you step by step add collors and it starts to look better and better. And as a final step pulling off the protective foil. Such a nice feeling
Good job! But how did you paint the red lines? Did you just remove the tapes and then spray the red over it? I'm assuming the red will not appear on the painted area. And did you use the stock stickers from Arrma to cover the windshield? Can't see from the video clearly.
@@glObOfad365 Thank you! I did not use the original masking tape. For some reason i never get it on right... so i use 18mm tape in miltiple lines and cutted it into the windows shape once it is applied to the body. When painting different collors you want to give the paint some time to dry, at room temperature 15 minutes is ok to apply another layer. If you want the previous layer not to interfere with the one you are currently laying the best thing to do is to use a "closing" layer. For example, i did 3 layers of silver for the whole body and closed it off with black (i believe 2 layers). Next to the red (its purple/pink) i made white line. i put the white first in 2 layers and that painted it red. The red shines throu the white making it a very light red.
@@kennysilvers-z4x Thank you :D Now i know not to crash the car. Crashed the Slash at 195 a few weeks ago with minor paint damage. But i dont know what paint was used, i bought it painted. ruclips.net/video/UKVWWUmbV2k/видео.html
I got a question let’s say right some how my fingers pulled on the thin layer of plastic the body came with would I still be able to paint it or did I sadly say mess that up ?
Spray paint creates mist that flows everywere and will come into contact with the outside of the body. The this plastic foil protects the outside of the body from this. after painting you peel it off. -If you only took a small piece off you can try and put it back -u can use tape to cover the small piece that can off -if all the foil is off you can use microwave plastic foil to re-cover the body as good as possible. Important is, is that the outside are stuck to the body so paint will not get under the foil or tape. Good luck!
@@kryptonitelegacy4050 Its not all that bad :P Watch out fror scratches on the outside, cut your body and make body post holes before painting, paint outside (preferbly with no wind and with no air pollution like dust), dont paint below 15°C because the paint will not dry correctly. (and all the tips from the video!) I still havent found a good way to tale the paint of the body without damaging the body, so painting is quite permanent. And dont forget that you first, second and even third body wont be perfect. This was my fith body (something like that) and it still had hair from my cat in it.....Cleaned it 3 times! But i love my cat so its ok. And the tape was not covering all the small corners. But i must say that this was the most difficult paintjob that i did with all the lines and different collors. What body are you going to paint? Good luck!! And enjoy!
I have no idea.... painted my own body. Send Arrma a message on insta, maybe they can help you. Or but the V1 body that is already painted. Its the exact same body as the V2.

That looks great! The silver has flecks of sparkle in it! but that is a solid paint job.

@@remborc seems therapeutic just to take the time to do it right or to your liking.

looks good
Thank you 🤙🏻
I am really happy with the result 😎
Perfect,even if it is not perfect😅
Looks great
Thank you!
And when driving 200+ kmph with speedrunning you dont even see the imperfections.
Nice lines
Thank you 🤙🏻 It is the first time using the small tape and i am really happy with the result 😎
Nice body
Thanks!

That paint will come off within a few crashes unless it's acrylic which is not available in a can. Nice paint job tho, cheers!
