The Tamiya 86003 PS-3 Light Blue spray paint is formulated for polycarbonate RC car shells to deliver crisp colour and a hard-wearing surface. The 100ml volume is intended to give sufficient coverage for standard body sizes.
Maintain a spray distance of about 30cm and use even passes to avoid runs. Painting the shell from the inside gives a tougher finish and better resistance to abrasion. After the first coat has dried fully, apply a second coat to achieve a solid appearance. For precise patterns and small areas, employ Tamiya bottle paints suited to polycarbonate for hand detailing.
This paint is formulated to resist oil and fuel exposure, so it works well on gas-powered RC models. That resistance helps keep the finish stable during fuel-handling and engine runs.
