what do you use to keep the paint from chipping off of your bodies:sniper:
 
I havent found squat.

Unfortunately.

I backed mine with 7 coats and no matter what, on high impact, its coming off. :(
 
The only thing I can say is this:

If you have a paint job you are particularly fond of, don't put it on your RC. Use it as a show body or a dust cover. Otherwise, expect the paint job to not survive too long past the first encounter with a poor landing or other on or off road mishap. That is why I have a basher body and a body I hide my mess under when it is not running.
