AAhhh, so the DF02 was yours! I thought that went really well. A few of us said that we'd wished that we'd taken something electric! :clap:

Love that Losi 8 too. Nice and clean, always wise to take shots now rather than wait until you've bashed it and made it proper dirty!! :joker:

:thumbs_up:

What set-up have you got in your focus?

I sat in the real version of this a few years back. They were doing some promo in Santander in Northern Spain. It was awesome! I just wish that they had been offering 'ride-outs' in it! :clap:

:thumbs_up:

you did a good job mate, even more so for your first go :clap:

Its always good to see and hear what other RC members are using, yeh mate tell us what paint you used, ive been doing some spraying lately ive been using Fasttrax spray paint, its super fast drying and nitro resistant, its by far the best stuff ive used.. :thumbs_up:

Sure..

Right first usual stuff washing the shell etc.

Then a few coats of Tamiya PS-46 Iridescent purple / green aprox 3/4 of the can

Next lightly back with Tamiya PS-48 semi gloss anodized aluminium

Then last but not least back those 2 with Tamiya TS-24 Purple

it works well foe a lecy but have no idear how it would react to nitro fumes tbh

:thumbs_up: :thumbs_up:

And for yours and everyone elses information....

After you've finished Painting it, if you spray a few coats of Nitro Block on... It'll be fine to use with a Nitro Car....

Otherwise the Nitro Will Attack the Paint.
