Looking for some advice/tips on a paint project. I've been having a little difficulty racing my Mini-B because there are a number that are using the same stock body with the same colors. I added some red tape to a few areas to help, but I'm looking to make it more unique so it's easier to pick out in traffic.
Being an Ohio State fan (and alum) I'm going to paint a new body in Buckeye colors. Colors are red/scarlet, gray/silver, black and white.
It's been many years since I've painted a body and even then, I was pretty bad at it!
Not expecting perfection on this one, but do want to at least get close.
So, my question generally is, what order do I paint? The idea is to have most of the body gray/silver with the red/white/black stripe going down the middle. Do I mask off the stripes, paint silver first, then the black, then white and finally red? Or is there a better order/method to use? Also, still the case that you paint the inside of the body? Not sure if methods have changed.
Appreciate the tips!
