Trailer Park Trick 1
Posted by -|SkaRSoNe|-

OH k! so heres how it goes.... another and first in history trailer park trick..... one month in with my new car and im gettin er dun! in -50 Celsius........ im jealous of all down south......

-So! first of all you gotta take your car apart (I took it as far as the servo boards and the gear box) as much as your comfortable with and clean it all as nice as you can...(remember..... a month! and i had it out in the ice and snow with no bags ha)
- now put it all back together and slap some decals on the battery box, raciever cover, and gas tank.......
-Ok so heres the cool part..... you gotta get yourself some paint, a tooth pick and a small tray of some sorts........ now all the embossed parts on the car (on the battery box and the muffler for stock rtr cars) can be filled in with paint.... so start with your first color and put some in a VERY small container and dip the tooth pick into the paint and gently drop the paint into the slot
-simply repeat for the outer layers
-with a black (or appropriate colored paint pen) cover the minor imperfections from the steps before
-a little smudge helps to blend in the paint more....
-then you can take it up a notch with a gold marker and make a back drop shadow...... oh wait...
-So simple as it is a blue tracer works all as well........

-and voala! or how ever the heck its said, heres another..... and first for the record! Trailer Park Trick!
-this ones for you bubbles.....
