put some DOT3 or DOT4 non synthetic brake fluid on it, let it sit an hour or so and remove the paint, wash out real well and reshoot it

Keep it the way it is and get some "Nickelodeon" decals to put on there and some Misc. cartoon character decals too. It has that "Slime" theme going on that they dump on everyone.

It will look like it's a crawler sponsored by Nickelodeon
Sure won't happen across another at any event you take it to.

alright, aside from the fact i cant paint, im also an idiot. didnt know there was an overspray mask on it already...so i took that off and now its all shiny!!!! put some of the stickers on and it really "brings it together"

aside from the few runs/mistakes, i dont think its so bad. its not exactly what i planned, but hey, what ever goes according to plan right?

so heres some new ones....






the fact its not exactly even is kindof a neat effect that i like, but wish was more "controlled" i didnt get nearly as much purple as i wanted, but i got the green so im happy.

You definitely will not be able to miss that bad boy on the rocks. Looks kind of cool just remember to wear shades on sunny days.

For some reason, the first thing I thought of was this, but I give you an A+ for painting it yourself :

The only thing I don't like is how the waves flow back but the slime flows foward. I give it a B overall.

Even if it looked perfect you couldn't drive it. What's your point?
