Gonna order one of these bodies, Glad I found this video! I am gonna order (3) paints now. Metallic sparkle, main color, and silver backing! Thank you. That body looks so beautiful!
🤣🤣"Nobody likes the runs"🤣🤣 LOL Looks fantastic with that flake in behind the main colour. I'm not a fan of green, but it still looks excellent. I'm just getting back into RC, but I remember that I used to gently warm the protective film with a hair dryer before peeling it off, used to work well for me. Also, I used to use regular car body panel wipe on a microfiber cloth instead of washing and drying. It always did the job, and didn't harm the polycarbonate. Also worked for over spray, if you caught it quickly. Desperately saving up to buy an XMAXX myself now... Still not sure how I'll get it past the finance committee (the wife) though. 😁
It would have been cool if you had masked the inside of the windows, so they'd have transparent stripes. But maybe that's just me. :) BTW, the sparkles are easy to see on camera - great job!
@@d252428q love the video. Btw do you have part numbers for the metal flake you used and other colors for backing. I'm looking to do the same process but with blue because traxxas discontinued the blue prographix replacement body
Could silver be used if misted as a flake or metallic? I like the flake but wish it was silver flake and not lame flake which is gold and kind of multicolored
@@d252428q thanks dude! I'll have a look when I get chance for the paint later 👍🏻 Also, I can't believe how beautiful the xmaxx came out. Defo got me inspired for a few "beauty" mods now 😬
That’s a shame about the decals, these delivery people piss me off I’ve had this happen to me boxes dented n look like they just throw them, I got a telescopic magnet yesterday n it’s all bent to hell, ridiculous! 🤬🤬🤬👍👍👊👊📹📹

Cool cheers for the tips. The xmaxx is the best all round rc on the market right now.
NP, kudos where kudos is due. Try the panel wipe thing on a scrap old body first though... just in case.
Just tried it and it works a treat.
YAY! 👍 Do I get a mention in a future vid? 😁😁
Seriously though, happy to be of help. Keep up the good work.
Your video answered alot of my questions. Thanks
Nice work , Excellent effect to it.
Cheers mate.
Beautiful done!
looks really nice good job
Awesome vid!!!
nice good job!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Cheers this was for a friend who wanted to put the stickers on. I normally like to smoke the windows.
Looking sweet mate
Cheers.
If i did this it wouldn’t leave the shelf. I love a show truck but I enjoy actually using the things.
Great vid,👍👍..very helpful
Cheers mate
Thanks Andrew :) ordered nice one chap
No worries. It goes a long way as well.

Cheers It's Tamiya Lame flake then use your colour and back with silver. Just make sure you use PS paints for polycarbonate.
@@d252428q thanks bud. And yes I know about not using acrylic or lacquer paint on polycarbonate plastics
Could silver be used if misted as a flake or metallic? I like the flake but wish it was silver flake and not lame flake which is gold and kind of multicolored
You mean the guys applying paint like they are stirring cake batter are doing it wrong? Nice vid.
Wow nice job what tamiya ps green did you use?
Yesss what color?! Please
What exact color green did you use?
Good video! Could you tell what the exact metal flake paint did you use?
amazing I want to know what you sent your truck on.
Thank you!
Use Tamiya TS or PS?
I just bought this body and painted it orange
Do you do custom paint jobs for sale???
Awesome video! Some great tips and advice.
Just wondering what colour green are you using as that's stunning?!
Also, you have a new sub 👍🏻
Cheers. I think it was PS-21. The lame flake and silver backing bring out the colour alot
@@d252428q thanks dude! I'll have a look when I get chance for the paint later 👍🏻
Also, I can't believe how beautiful the xmaxx came out. Defo got me inspired for a few "beauty" mods now 😬
Can you paint the outside of the body?
You can but you need to use tamiya matt clear first
@@d252428q thank you
Would be very interested in you doing a Ford f-150 raptor body for my x Maxx 8s

looks great! However, I'm not waisting time on something im going to destroy in the first 5 minutes.
This was for someone that runs an unbreakable body and wanted a display body.
