| Tail lights and corner light paint???
I'm painting a scx10.2 and masked off the rear tail lights. I don't like the sticker that comes with the kit for the rear. Was thinking of painting on transparent (see through) type of paint to make it look more realistic. And something I could add lights to. Also the front turn signal comes clear. I would like to paint that realistic amber. That I could have a light shine through. Is there a spray paint option? Or something I could apply with a paint brush? I don't have a airbrush. So that's not a option for me. What is out there? Pictures of what the results would be? Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk |

btw Tamiya also supplies orange for turn signals... https://www.amazon.com/Tamiya-Acryli...QXMHSVZ9KBE5M4 And if applying to lexan/poly plastics... https://www.amazon.com/Tamiya-Polyca...QXMHSVZ9KBE5M4 https://www.amazon.com/PS-43-Tamiya-.../dp/B001Q0ZEN6 tho' IMO that later doesn't work as well for hand brushed applications. And requires a backing to ensure other paints applied do not infringe. Last edited by TacoCrawler; 02-27-2017 at 05:24 PM. |
