  1. Bashing
my friend was really dumb and when i little paint got on the outside of my lexan body was o carb cleaner will get that off and sprayed it all over my body now there is a white wax like stuff on it and i have now clue how to get it off it was a brand new freshly painted body and I'm really angry :angry: so if anyone can help it would be appreciated a TON!!
 
For future issues just use denatured alcohol if it's just light overspray. It's not a spectacular cleaner for paint but it won't harm the lexan.
 
Since it's not coming off, mask it up and do some crazy rattle can work on the outside of the body. Maybe the ate up lexan will make a cool texture in the paint! Sorry to hear about your body, though. Spray carb cleaner up your friend's shorts next Thursday. You'll feel better.
 
Paint the outside black or gray with pecan paint, and a silver on the inside. As you bash, it will scratch off the outside and it will cause realistic looking damage. And a ton of rigs look really good with a flat paint job instead of gloss.
 
Yup I have to agree with you on that Alpine....I have seen a couple done up like that and it looks pretty cool.
 
Dude.. it wont look bad. what i was going to do to my body is sand it down because i actually painted the out side and it turned out like this
