OK boy's. Here it is.
I stripped the old paint off with good ol' ELO.
Came off pretty easy.
Bought some XXX main, large flames, and Spazstix paint.
Here is the finished result.
Thanks for looking.

WoW... That came out sweet... One of the best can jobs I've seen... That will look great chasing my Mugen around the track... lol
 
CAN JOB!!! You dirty mother............
Oh am I gonna...... Why you..... arrghh!!!
 
Looking real sweet, and I'm looking to drive my trusty ole Tmaxx over the top of that speed bump. Wait till winter when I have studded tires on.
 
Trusty or rusty?
BTW. The paint isn't that dark. Just looks dark in the pic.
A little lighter.
I forgot that the wheels and wing are green!!
Anyone want to buy a buggy body?
Just painted.

Looks good. Paint the wing and wheels to match. lol
 
Sweet!! :cheers:

Is that the same body you had the carbon fiber scheme started on?

If so, ELO is magic.

BTW, WTH is ELO? :shrug:

Thanks,
Mr T
 
Looking real good Ratzo. I love the ruby color. Certainly looks better in the second pic. Nice and bright. Too bad I don't have a buggy or I'd take it...
 
That looks great man. How much do u want for the body? If my wife will let me buy it I prob would.
 
What is ELO if it strips paint off of bodies i need to pick me up some i want to repaint one of my lids.
 
I think I'm gonna put it in the for sale forum and we'll figure it out their.
I don't want to get warned for selling in a different thread.
The name of the strip stuff is Easy lift Off (ELO). Made by Poly S.
Works wonders, and yes. It's the same body that I had the carbon fiber paint on.
ELO works best on fresh paint. Still works on old paint, just needs more attention.
To the for sale forum I go.
I think $50 ish
