Lovely guide to paint a body. I did tons of those back in the day. If you heat the paintcan up in warm water for 15 minutes before painting, it should not be spitting. The heat helps the paint to flow better out the nozzle.
Anston Armstrong Definitely more affordable but still upwards of like $500 lmao and good bodies are soooo annoying to find online. The hobby sites are really dodgy most of the time. Like they never tell you things are out of stock until you are like 100% ready to purchase. But still a really fun hobby to get into.
Marble is just setting a base coat then layering on another color and using Saran wrap or even a balled up news paper and dabbing the wet paint gently revealing pieces of base coat creating a marble effect. Easy. Custom painting is easy, the hard part is laying even coats without zebra stripes and keeping it clean without fish eyes. Anything you want to learn is here on TH-cam. Research.
gotta love how his childeren are involved always :) puts a smile on my face. i also try to get my sistert of 10 to help me when i do stuff on quads fixing things, or build a pc i ask her the bolts or something. depends on the day sometimes she wanna help sometimes she just i being anoying. got my 7 year old sister she always wants to help but she has 2 left hands lol and is still more a child and prefers to play outside or with dolls and clean up. bit of a princess.
Absolutely gorgeous! When I moved from off-road to on-road I grabbed a mk3 Escort shell. Went for a metallic blue with white racing stripes, and the white final coat really made it pop.
I was searching this topic yesterday cause I finally got around to my body to fit my chassis. And this pops up this morning thought it was just my search results nope just a new HOONIGAN video uploaded. Thanks Jon
Holy cow John..... Its like you lived my life when I was a young fella.... Tamiya RCs in the early 80's with the Frog, later followed by Optima Mids, then real cars took over.... Then guess what? Rediscovered my RC youth.... Is the the new Mid-life crisis? Im building an RC drag 23 window Microbus!
This body came out looking killer. It wouldn't have occurred to me to back silver with black, I totally would have blown it by backing the silver with white and making the final color too bright. Totally excited to see you guys do more with RC, and hell yes make hoonigan RC sticker sheets!!
This is the first time ive seen this video after all this time. I just wanted to say Thank you! Thank you for getting those stickers made, since now I know it was you who did it. They look great on all my cars, from the '91 4Runner crawler shell to the many many drift shells! You Da Man
Yes, tiny Hoonigan stickers for RC might just be enough to get me back into it. I have several out in my garage right now. A couple of electrics and at least three nitro powered. Wait, I still have the chassis and body of my Tamiya Lamborghini CS too.
I had a Frog. That was my first RC car. It's been a long time for me. The last kit that I put together was a Clod Buster that i put a Grace Digger body on. Now my son is getting into it with a Traxxas Slash 2WD. I'm getting the itch again for it. Maybe a drift RC car that will need a Hoonigan sticker is in my future
I have a 56 Chevrolet nomad body as a tail dragging drift car. The tall rear roof let's it get down low in the rear. Leaving spats on gives it a wicked look
+1 For a Hoonigan sticker sheet for sure!!! I have a new shell shipping to me right now and I seriously need to rep for the Hoonigans in 1/10th Scale!!!
The reason for the drops when you sprayed the Trans Red is either not shaking long enough or not heating up the bottle. Translucent paint is pretty sensitive to that. I always put is in a little bit of warm water before I start.
Also need Hoonigan stickers in 1/25 for the static scale builders. And make sure to include the license plates in the sheet. Need the bracket, the C-Bar, the Kill All Tires, the Motorsports...
Ruff? (roof?) I love you Jon! 😋 Omg I used to be so huge into dirt racing/off road nitro RC cars/truck. I could fall into a hobby like this again so easy... as cool as nitro was I would def go electric next time. Once again - amazing job at anything paint.
frogger hell yeah we had a hornet too! my dad painted that ish himself! Tamaya $$ I wrecked the gearbox though and we could never get it tight again. I've used green a lot over the years and the FROG was that formative moment it came from
I think you should've paneled the whole top with the trunk lid and hood. Looks sick though. Great content man. Please do more on custom painting. Try the water droplet effect. Super easy and super hot boi.
Proliferating.com has a tool that suctions to the body so it is easier to hold while painting. Also try placing the cans in room temp water for awhile then shake them up really good. Nice job!! 👍🏼👍🏼
looking good man trans paint is best used hot i always boil some water and leave the can in there till its hot also add some body lines to the shell it will make it pop more
Yess we need those hooligans crying stickers I just grabbed my first rc and deff need to rock the boys. I feel it’s a hobby that’s taking off with everything goin on 🏁🏁🏁🏴☠️🏴☠️🏴☠️🇺🇸
Yes to the sticker sheet and loved the paint job but thanks for the memories. I had the same three tamiya og cars. The frog was the best with the gold motor. 🙏
Yes i need stickers especially in 1/28th scale. I've been buying whole sets from overseas just to get 2 hoonigan stickers lol. My bro made me a body during lockdown i call it covid 9 green. Its a wrx with light blue base coat than clear blue and metallic green on top and a bunch of clear looks pretty sweet. ✌
Great job! Before masking (and depending on how long i'm masking for) I wash my hands with dish soap to remove oils from my hands and no worries of finger prints. Keep up the R/C vids.
Dude RC cars are sick.I came across an RC car TH-cam channel called "LOADING KINGS RC-SPARKS REBOOT" they got cool semi truck RC cars and compete in loading and unloading the rc trucks. Pretty cool.
1000% make ‘Hoonigan RC’ sticker sheets. 🏁🤙🏼💯
I would buy it and put it all over my 1/8 nitro buggy and truggy
they did at one point, i had one but I used all of them and I would definitely buy again
They did a colab with hpi
I have an RC that came with hoonigan stickers on the sheet
Also some Ain't Care stickers.
Hoonigan sticker sheet for RC? Hell yes, DO IT! I'll definitely buy that for all my racers and bashers!
... and a little scale model of Hert for the driver's seat ... and a hood ejection servo
I agree I’d buy multiple as well
Me too!!! Stickers would be awesome!
well you did it and there are now stickers
Petition for more Hoonigan HOW TO RC content.
Definately
"I just wanted to stunt on hert real quick" 😂😂😂☠
Hahahahahahaha same same!
The hood has already flown off of Hert’s.
robotskirts BRUH HAHAHAHAHAHAH
🤣🤣🤟
DAMNNNN BURNNNNN

And ups the pressure in the can
With translucent paint from tamiya, this is almost a must. ‘Normal’ colours don’t do that as much
I do that on every can , wether I’m spraying primer on some rusty junk or laying down some expensive paint on a guitar.
Lol I just wrote almost the same info about the warm water trick.
We need some RC car sticker packs, some for 1/24th scale cars too!
Need proper water slide for 1/24 too, not vinyl
This looks like a build i can actually afford

@@DevourIsDead better than $5,000 though
@@haydenreyes4621 $5000 rc build? Just buy a real car at that point.
“i can’t even put a sticker on perfect” oohhh what a mood
Dude, John you did a killer job!
A THOUSAND YES’S to the “hoonigan RC” we’ve got a whole family squad of cars we need to deck out!
Your daughter is legit dude. "I can't even put a sticker on perfect!" If we all had that kind of self awareness we'd have world peace!
Quarantine projects at its finest
And that helmet was straight 🔥 we need a how-to on THAT. Great job on the paint 👏

Just painted my first drift RC and now I wish I would have watched this first. Love that candy flake paint job!
gotta love how his childeren are involved always :) puts a smile on my face.
i also try to get my sistert of 10 to help me when i do stuff on quads fixing things, or build a pc i ask her the bolts or something. depends on the day sometimes she wanna help sometimes she just i being anoying. got my 7 year old sister she always wants to help but she has 2 left hands lol and is still more a child and prefers to play outside or with dolls and clean up. bit of a princess.
Penelope should be on the payroll. Best camera work and commentary to date.
This reminds me of larry chens r32
WOWKEWL
I know you say it is another hobby you don't need, but you're killing it. I want to see more custom paint on RC by Jon Chase!
Chase is the man and his kids are the shit. Father of the year right here.
So happy to see you guys get into this hobby! You guys seem to be having so much fun with this! Just finished a JZX100 on my channel!
The Mark Gonzales reference took me back. The Gonz was a big reason I started skating
10/10want more paint videos from john so underrated
Absolutely gorgeous! When I moved from off-road to on-road I grabbed a mk3 Escort shell. Went for a metallic blue with white racing stripes, and the white final coat really made it pop.
Y'all need to make a channel "HooniganRC" c:
Zqud I would definitely watch that
@@kaidokiller that's what I'm sayiinnn 😂👌🏼👌🏼. Get everyone a rc car and just stick up on random clips from house or what not.
Why they of playing so often you will c enough throught there media. I mean its only a matter of time before there's an rc car in this vs that anyway.
I was searching this topic yesterday cause I finally got around to my body to fit my chassis. And this pops up this morning thought it was just my search results nope just a new HOONIGAN video uploaded. Thanks Jon
Best idea ever!!! Hoonigan rc sticker sheets!!!!👌👌👌

The Ruf? 😂 it's roof man! Rooooooooff wooof woof 😂
That came out awesome. Warm the spray can in some warm water before you spray, works way better and should help with the spatter.
Great memories with dad she will always remember stuff like this she is so cute .the car turned out awesome
This is awesome! So cool to see a Hoonigan in the rc hobby! Although I’m into the off-road crawlers in the hobby. Looks good chase!
Any episode with Jon should be a mandatory 1/2 hour episode. Jusy sayin'
This body came out looking killer. It wouldn't have occurred to me to back silver with black, I totally would have blown it by backing the silver with white and making the final color too bright. Totally excited to see you guys do more with RC, and hell yes make hoonigan RC sticker sheets!!
Hell yes stickers for rc cars!!! And more scale stuff!!
Make sticker sheets for rc cars!!! I’d love to put some Hoonigan stickers on my Raptor
Totally saw the danger lurking for Chase to dive in whole-hog...he’s SO HOOKED!!
Yes! Hoonigan sticker sheet for RC Cars would be awesome.
This is the first time ive seen this video after all this time. I just wanted to say Thank you! Thank you for getting those stickers made, since now I know it was you who did it. They look great on all my cars, from the '91 4Runner crawler shell to the many many drift shells! You Da Man
the whole rc industry has been wanting hoonigan sticker sheets. PLEASE YES
Stickers? Yes please. I just got an RS200 shell yesterday, so that would be perfect!
Just finished painting my Fox Body missile car today!
hip hip! looks great!!!
Mark Gonzales Board!! Vision nostalgia! It was my first deck and I'm about to paint a kenmeri skyline from ABC hobby. Great video 👍

I was honestly expecting him to go with a hot rod styled body for his drift RC. Was not expecting to see an R32 styled one lol.
you guys had RC stickers back in the day! bring them back!
Hell yes. Make sure you'll be able to ship them to the UK!
+1 For a Hoonigan sticker sheet for sure!!! I have a new shell shipping to me right now and I seriously need to rep for the Hoonigans in 1/10th Scale!!!
yes rc stickers would be awesome on absolutely anything
I try to kinda heat the can first with a hot water before i use the spray. It does help it from spitting
We need more rc drift!! We need more Jon!
Massive yes for RC sticker sheets.
Yeeess, more RC content! I don't know why it's so entertaining even compared to real cars, but I'm not complaining
More RC vidz plz. Takes me back to when I used to run them. I do miss it.
Looks ace... Yes to rc stickers.. There used to be a hoonigan sticker pack threw hpi... I had many many sheets but used them all 😢
If you use white as the final coat it really brightens it up
So happy to see RC stuff on Hoonigan! Fkn dope
The reason for the drops when you sprayed the Trans Red is either not shaking long enough or not heating up the bottle. Translucent paint is pretty sensitive to that. I always put is in a little bit of warm water before I start.
I agree with the rc stickers! Been wanting them for a while! I have 3 cars id put them on!
Killed it. Looks sick100% need Hoonigan RC car stickers
If you guys do make a RC sticker sheet, you should definitely include a mini black and yellow HOONIGAN licence plate!
Hell yeah for rc stickers. Need some for my Losi 5IVE-T!!!! Maybe even the Leah Pritchett pinstripes scaled down
Plizzzzz more RC video !!!... very cool paint
Also need Hoonigan stickers in 1/25 for the static scale builders. And make sure to include the license plates in the sheet. Need the bracket, the C-Bar, the Kill All Tires, the Motorsports...
That paint job is sick!
great how to video!!! Keep the rc dream alive!
Ruff? (roof?) I love you Jon! 😋 Omg I used to be so huge into dirt racing/off road nitro RC cars/truck. I could fall into a hobby like this again so easy... as cool as nitro was I would def go electric next time. Once again - amazing job at anything paint.
frogger hell yeah we had a hornet too! my dad painted that ish himself! Tamaya $$ I wrecked the gearbox though and we could never get it tight again. I've used green a lot over the years and the FROG was that formative moment it came from
Jon put more effort into painting this rc car than I have put into my entire car in over a year
Big YES PLEASE on hoonigan rc stickers. 👍
Welcome back to the RC world of drifting great choice for your back to drift car 💪🏻🔥😷🔥👍🏻.
Good way to display wrap design skills.
I would love to be able to get some Rc Hoonigan stickers . Please make some up ! :) . Nice paint job Mr. Chase
JCROffroad made sticker sheets when the Axial Cherokee came out. You guys definitely should too!
I think you should've paneled the whole top with the trunk lid and hood. Looks sick though. Great content man. Please do more on custom painting. Try the water droplet effect. Super easy and super hot boi.
Proliferating.com has a tool that suctions to the body so it is easier to hold while painting. Also try placing the cans in room temp water for awhile then shake them up really good. Nice job!! 👍🏼👍🏼
looking good man trans paint is best used hot i always boil some water and leave the can in there till its hot also add some body lines to the shell it will make it pop more
Dang that looks amazing 🤩
OMG YES!!! We need Hoonigan RC decals!!!
Yess we need those hooligans crying stickers I just grabbed my first rc and deff need to rock the boys. I feel it’s a hobby that’s taking off with everything goin on 🏁🏁🏁🏴☠️🏴☠️🏴☠️🇺🇸
Paint job looks killer, would definitely go for some hoonigan RC sticker sheets
John stunting hard as always
You guys should get some no-prep rc drag cars to go with those drift cars. They are a blast
You good john, you knew more than I thought! I have a custom hoonigan windshield banner on my rc mark 4 chaser hehe
Same here bro got the bug. But waiting to buy the rtr kit. Wanted to build. But just to high to start off. Def wanna hop up the steering too
Yes to the sticker sheet and loved the paint job but thanks for the memories. I had the same three tamiya og cars. The frog was the best with the gold motor. 🙏
Have you ever seen the Garage Moon Power R32? He runs lowrider style paintjobs too. His new S14 looks beautiful
Cool paint! yes to rc stickers
Yes i need stickers especially in 1/28th scale. I've been buying whole sets from overseas just to get 2 hoonigan stickers lol. My bro made me a body during lockdown i call it covid 9 green. Its a wrx with light blue base coat than clear blue and metallic green on top and a bunch of clear looks pretty sweet. ✌
Best hoonigan soundtrack Ever!
When i use spray paint on my model i allways put the can in worm water for a bit to worm up the paint help stop splattering and dripping paint
Awesome paint work... Stickers fosho
Im looking forward to your next few paint jobs, this was a good first. Sticker would probably help, and add more hp...
Great job! Before masking (and depending on how long i'm masking for) I wash my hands with dish soap to remove oils from my hands and no worries of finger prints. Keep up the R/C vids.
“Let’s focus on the ruff”. accent memes
Dude RC cars are sick.I came across an RC car TH-cam channel called "LOADING KINGS RC-SPARKS REBOOT" they got cool semi truck RC cars and compete in loading and unloading the rc trucks. Pretty cool.
MEDiC is the man. I've been subscribed for almost 10 years!!
I really hope TH-cam Gold makes a comeback this season.
