very very nicely done. looks great!!

TEAMBLACKCOUNTRY says:

@93foxrodstang50 yes 2 or 3 coats of color then the backing color ..with
pactra the metalics are backed with black but either silver or black would
be fine(not white) add a couple of coats ,or until its nice and smoothly
covered …hope this helps mate!

blingkingIV says:

@TEAMBLACKCOUNTRY thanks

TEAMBLACKCOUNTRY says:

@mustangcarter199 the backing colour is required to make the dark colours
dark or the light colours light otherwise they dont work well especially
pearl colours and fluros if you dont back some of them they are clear 🙂

bluarnold says:

very good job but the music isnt ok

Bryan Fransen says:

do you need that white paint for a single color too?

Benny Hill says:

if u don’t mind me adding, the method u showed by scoring the lexan to ur
desired lines only work really work for thin lexans like the one u use and
one other example is on-road tc bodies, they’re usually very thin. me i use
tamiya bodies, whilst they have great details unfortunately it’s too thick
to just score it so u need to trim it down till there’s about 1mm left and
then sand it down.

BREAD92110 says:

how do i get krylon paint off it im a idiot and thought i could use it on
my first body paint

TEAMBLACKCOUNTRY says:

@hondasarecool1 haha yeah ive done that before good thinking! thanks for
watching mate!

Antony says:

Leyland Monster says:

What tape should i use i currently have pactra masking tape 1/8 inch wide

Sophie Green says:

Can I have a teamblackcountry sticker for my car

Bruno Oliveira says:

Painted from the inside? That was new to me… clever, but new. I still
gotta ask, why not the outside? please answer.

Antony says:

i have a question about step 5. can u wash urrc body with dish detergent??

TEAMBLACKCOUNTRY says:

@94BrunoO hi mate thanks for watching ,all lexan bodyshells that come clear
are painted on the inside for a few reasonseg the paint wont wear off if
you flip the car also the moulded bodies look like a gloss laquer so you
get an amazing look when you peel the protective film off the outside ,only
hard bodies are usually painted on the outside 🙂 you live and learn eh!
have a good en 🙂

TEAMBLACKCOUNTRY says:

@higgout thanks man hope you enjoyed the vid 😉 !!

9569VLAD says:

nice video bro thanks

Sean Cloughley says:

DO NOT forget the top plastic coating. I put all of the stickers on only to
have this come off, taking the stickers with it

somekid908 says:

@TEAMBLACKCOUNTRY Thankyou. Your video really helped me. Great vids!

somekid908 says:

@TEAMBLACKCOUNTRY Thankyou again ;). And yes it has about 3 coats all the
way around and 3-4 coats at the corners. It doesn’t look as good as yours
though. when i cut off the access plastic it was way rougher then what
yours came out to be. But this is and was my first time ever painting a
body.

thespirit7777 says:

can i use plastic spray colors for painting the body ? because i cant find
polycarbonate colors in my country thank you

Sophie Green says:

Do u give out tbc stickers

Leyland Monster says:

please can u tell me the exact stuff u used from wheelspin models because i
am a reguluar customer there and i really want to have ago also is there
any tips i should know about also just to let u know my grandad used to
paint trucks! so he might come in handy!!

TEAMBLACKCOUNTRY says:

@TraxxasGuyify thanks! hope it helps 😉 …time is the biggest thing if you
dont take a little time it will reflect so enjoy it and take a day out 😉
…be nice to see a vid of your new shell im sure it will inspire others !

higgout says:

Truck looks awesome

TEAMBLACKCOUNTRY says:

@SUPERPCFLYER1111 haha yes mate we use the pactra paints they seem to be
very good ….also make sure after you have cleaned your body you dont
touch the inside with your bare hands as the greases on skin react with
paint …oh and you may be best drilling or REAMING your body holes out
…they have reamers at wheelspin …remember your backing color too …si
or ant will help you out mate let em know youve been talking to steve
fromteamblackcountry 😉

somekid908 says:

Im about to do this to the exact same body for my flux. So you dont paint
the outside of the shell? You just paint the inside? And since its clear,
it will look like you did the outside to? I have a red base coat, and then
a white. Im in need of some help. Please respond quickly. Thanks and great
vid.

Tyrant xt says:

Ok. Clearing and drying is importent right? I can See this on every Videos.
And i know it. But Importent for me is only painting and drying. Did you
take an hair dryer by dring? Or how Long did wait by one color? I mean: 1
Small painting 2 drying how Long??? 3 more Colour painting 4 drying how
Long ?? 5 finish painting 6 dring how Long??? 7 Remove mask 8 Same again
with Next Colour Or did you paint more than 3 Times with One Colour? How
many? How often i had to paint and how Long should i w

Harrison Vann says:

Jose Peedles says:

somekid908 says:

how long does it take for it to dry? Ive got my red base coat all done, and
its ready for the white overcoat when its done drying. But generally how
long does it take it for it to completely dry for the base coat?
