Clear body and wing by Tamiya 9804558 for the Super Hotshot

The Tamiya 9804558 Clear Body/Wing Set suits the 1/10 RC Super Hotshot, delivering a blank polycarbonate body and wing ready for customising. The lightweight construction helps preserve handling while allowing personalised styling.

Preparing the shell for paint

This polycarbonate body accepts paints made for RC shells and offers a good balance of durability and weight. Be sure to remove the protective overspray film from the exterior before painting to avoid blemishes.

Supplies to finish your build neatly

Typical items to complete the look include:

Polycarbonate-specific paints for flexible adhesion
Masking tape or pre-cut window masks for clean lines
Hobby scissors or a craft knife for precise trimming
Decals and finishing stickers for identity

Will this body change the car's balance?

The clear polycarbonate body is light so it should not noticeably upset balance, but heavy paint layers can shift weight distribution so apply paint sparingly.

Can I use household spray paints on this body?

Household paints are not recommended. Use paints specifically for polycarbonate RC bodies to ensure a flexible, long-lasting finish.

How do I attach decals after painting?

Apply decals to a fully cured paint surface, smooth out air bubbles with a soft cloth, and consider a light clear overcoat or decal film for protection.
