Thanks for the tip ! I tried it on a scratch built foamie. I just repainted my new Freewing F15 90 mm red,white and blue . I repaint all my models and this talcum powder trick works.
I've used Talcum Powder to flatten glossy clearcoat, never thought to try this though. I'm curious about the durability though, either way...... Pretty slick!!
I’m just getting ready to do a whole repaint and going to try to remove the old paint and because it was going to be multi colored knew I would still get the peeling. Definitely going to try this out.
great tip ! I used ''Deluxe Foam Armour' to protect the paint/foam edges of the canopy, fuselage and battery hatch The problem is that it was a little tacky and would stick. Talcum powder cures the stick....
Hey bud, we been doing this for 10yrs now....Im just kidding, Very cool to know. I've tried all the techniques you motioned and then some.Great tip Thanks.
@@JustPlaneCrazy LOL..ya Im still laughing after writing it. There will probably be at least one guy that will say it... I'm glad you thought that was funny. thanks again for the tip.
Recently discovered your channel sir and I'm so glad I did! I will be painting my own AL-37 here in a week or two when I get back off the road (truck driver), so this is perfectly timed. Subbed!
@@JustPlaneCrazy it's not my bread and butter but I do pull a lot of freight for FedEx so since that was a plane I could get up close and personal with and take pictures, I figured I would go with that livery. Waiting on my Callie graphics order. Can't wait to get her in the air!
@@JustPlaneCrazy thanks brother! FYI, you and my son have two things in common. Your name, and your love of RC aircraft. He's just as eagerly awaiting the maiden as I am!
You just saved my Ass, been wanting to paint tri colours (horizontal) stripes on my Airline model, RED on top, blue in the middle and red underneath a TRI Colours process, you killed it mate and thank you Sir! :-)

@@JustPlaneCrazy you know when I was younger had a hobbyzone super cub and use to fly it at the firestation.Im retired now put in 35 yrs.Im 72 but when I fly I'm just a kid again.Still have the old girl.removing the guts and rebuild her with new parts fuselodge ect.Want her orange and yellow.You think I should sand new foam parts a little.
Krylon fusion is hands down the best paint for these or any repaint if you can find your color. I have used it on most if not all my repaints including my military jets. Your new technique appears to work really well, I have a repaint coming my friend Ill have to give it a try!
Cool, this should work for my foamboard builds as well as I often use tape to strengthen control surface hinge areas and when I pull of the masking it often rips the paint off the tape over the hinge
If you are part of any groups or forums or threads that deal with building foam board. Or maybe just a group of fellow builders. It helps when my channel gets spread amongst your fellow fliers. Thanks again for watching
@@JustPlaneCrazy my preferred method for a clean cut line is to put down a little bit of the base coat first over the tape's edge to seal it, then add your stripe and peel. That makes the perfect cut line.
I think on paint that’s already peeled anything will continue up to peel it up. But that wing was solid paint when I started. Every piece I tested had the same results. The engine nacelles at the end of the vid were a true at the moment test and result
This is genius!!! I normally mask my planes then might take a couple days before i paint them. Using this method do you need to paint right away or can you apply the baby powder, mask, then wait a few days?? Thanks man!!!
Thanks for watching and don’t forget to share. What the powder is doing is perfectly coating the tape to its lowest adhesion point. I don’t think it will matter how many days you let it on there. When I pull the tape off it feels like a post it note.
Good tip! I noticed in the test part you rubbed it over the entire area and painted right over. Does this affect how the pain sticks or change the shade?
It’s such a small amount your using and really focused around the tape area not the paint area. I saw no difference in the paint that absorbed the powder
I just tried the baby powder trick and pulled off all of my paint as if I had stuck on duct tape! Very disappointed, but to each their own. Maybe I need to rub it in more, I don’t know.
Yeah not sure. I refinish all my models this way with no issues. I can’t tell you how many hundreds of others have tried it with amazing success. Try it again. Maybe you just have a really poorly painted plane prior to you getting it. Not sure 🤔
Sorry but it is a good idea however I would remove the baby powder fro. The area that is being painted, by leaving the baby powder your messing with the moleculer adhesion, ie the paint may stick for a little bit but won't be on there forever
I get what your saying but saw zero difference in the area that was or wasn’t painted. The paint absorbs what’s there and it stuck just fine. It’s not like your coating them whole plane with scoops of powder. You focus on the area that’s getting tape. Multiple planes, multiple tests
There are different methods for creating lines that don’t bleed through for brushing. The powder technic is used is used to help create the line and then be able to remove the tape without pulling g up the paint under it.
@@JustPlaneCrazy Thanks. I am about to brush paint some invasion stripes on a foamy P-47 Razorback and and wondered how to do it without pulling off the existing paint with low stick tape
Great Vids just ordered the AL37 Im planning on doing the American Lines version with the older livery the natural aluminum. What paint would you recommend. Or could I possibly skin in with like the heat shrink material used to cover sail planes. Ive seen some material that would give that brushed aluminum appearance. Just an idea?
I’m new to the painting game, do you remove the tape always right after you finish painting, or is it better to let it dry for a bit to avoid rubs & streaks? Thx for info
I have done many projects for guys but the time I get into them far exceeds what I can charge. So I no longer do it. I am now focusing on building some of my own projects
@@JustPlaneCrazy okay I totally understand, any advice on what kind of paint and where I can find them I ordered some graphics from Callie , I want to paint it as a Southwest Airlines any advice would be appreciated.
I have done many vids on answering those questions. He is a link to one set of playlists. Jurassic Park AL37 ruclips.net/p/PLwAtpGIpRcU7TeHlLbKw7gm9XNsWC54eS I also have the toy story one and the avengers on on my channel. I like using Rustoleum 2x. Available at Home Depot

This has got to be one of the RC tips of the year. And how the hell did you know that I stuck my blue tape to my shirt before I used it???😂
Lol we all have. I needed to find something better. For sure this has been a game changing trick.
Very cool indeed. Gave you the thumbs up!

Not at all as long as it’s EPO. Pretty much ever edf made today is.
@@JustPlaneCrazy THANKS!
Rust-Oleum 2x works flawlessly as well. And it's cheaper.
That was awesome thanks for all the tips and tricks.
A great tip! Thank you for sharing. Does this also work on GfK?
Gfk?
@@JustPlaneCrazy in german: glasfaser verstärkter Kunststoff ( glass fiber reinforced plastic). A very smooth surface.
@willipreugschat thanks. Than yes
@@JustPlaneCrazy OK thanks. Will try it in the future.
Cool, this should work for my foamboard builds as well as I often use tape to strengthen control surface hinge areas and when I pull of the masking it often rips the paint off the tape over the hinge
Perfect idea. Thanks for commenting. Don’t forget to share the vid in the foam board world

Thanks and thanks for watching
Great tip. What type of spray paint are you using on the foam?
Krylon or Rustoleum 2x work great. Check out my airliner builds on my channel
sticking the tape to your shirt once before you stick it on your plane does the same thing ;)
Try it. You will be surprised in the difference between the two
@@JustPlaneCrazy my preferred method for a clean cut line is to put down a little bit of the base coat first over the tape's edge to seal it, then add your stripe and peel. That makes the perfect cut line.
Try that on the already peeled areas like you did with the first two pieces of tape. Do you think the results would be the same

In my testing it made no difference and absorbed it.
@@JustPlaneCrazy thanks for the info!
Can you use acrylic airbrush paints on epp?
Yes. It’s not the paint that’s ever the issue It’s the propellant used in the cans
@@JustPlaneCrazy ah perfect what about clear coating?
I prefer water based minwax if it won’t be getting wet
@@JustPlaneCrazy I love inn the UK, unfortunately all we have is wet 😂
Why didn't you do it over the peeling paint like you did without the powder?
It works great thousands of people now use this technic.
Doesn’t this lower the adherence of the paint sprayed on top of the talcum treated areas???
It’s such a small amount your using and really focused around the tape area not the paint area. I saw no difference in the paint that absorbed the powder
WOW!!!!
Thanks you saved me a headache

So why not just wipe powder over the whole plane then , since it will not harm the paint ?
No point in doing anywhere u aren’t masking off
@@JustPlaneCrazy
But I do a lot of masking
Then go for it. I seen no difference in paint where there was and wasn’t powder
Sorry but it is a good idea however I would remove the baby powder fro. The area that is being painted, by leaving the baby powder your messing with the moleculer adhesion, ie the paint may stick for a little bit but won't be on there forever
