Thin Film Reinforcement for RC Shells

To protect a polycarbonate body from chipping and small tears, consider the Tamiya 54784 - RC Body Reinforced Clear Type OP-1784. This transparent reinforcement tape is intended for vulnerable areas such as fender rims and the roof seam where impacts commonly start damage.

Apply in Minutes for Ongoing Protection

The tape is 35mm wide and 50cm long, which suits short emergency repairs or longer strips for preventive use. Cut to size and apply over the problem zones, pressing firmly to ensure good adhesion. Its clear surface keeps graphics and paint visible while adding abrasion resistance.

Recommended Scenarios

This product is useful for club racers and hobbyists who face frequent knocks or run on rough surfaces. Reinforcing critical points can reduce the rate of shell failure and help you avoid replacing bodies too often.

It should peel cleanly in most cases, but aged adhesive can leave residue; use a mild solvent to clean any remaining tack.
Careful small applications work, but avoid large coverage on windows to prevent visual distortion; try on a spare panel to check results.
Yes, it suits a variety of polycarbonate shells; apply to stress points common to each body style for best effect.
Clean and dry surfaces, avoid touching the adhesive, and press with a roller or firm cloth to maximise initial bond.
