Arrow waterproofing

I got a TR scx10 honcho for my birthday! I ran it a few times very impressed. GREAT RIG. It out did the custom crawler king. Put old pair of cralwer king shocks on without springs. They wok great. Also put in traxxas 4 channel 2.4 ghz radio system. But now the truck is sitting on the work bench. I greases the gears without thinking. If i try to run it gravel will get caught in the gears on chew them uo so im not going to run it until I get a scx10 gear cover. I got bored with it so Im going to waterproof will i wait. Except for one prob. I dont know how to waterproof it. I was wondering if some people could tell me best way to waterproof it. Could you also please include pictures because im a visual person. I will try and upload some pictures of the truck once i figure out how to upload them lol.

Thanks in advance to someone that can help me.

Wal-Mart. Liquid Tape in the Jar. Works awesome! Put 2-3 coats on and I've drowned it in water! Been running good ever since!

you greased the gear? which gears are getting rock in them? the spur and pinion gears are the only gears that are open and i have never greased those or heard of anyone greasing those. the gears in the axles and INSIDE the tranny yes but not the spur and pinion. clean the grease off of those two and run the thing...lol

thanks every one so far and im thinking about using liquid tape but im also thinking about maybe using a lock and lock container if i can find the right size. Im also going to get the grease off of the gears that i put grease on.


Keep the good ideas coming.
