Apply a Metallic Green Coat to Your RC Body

If you want a polished, metallic look for your RC body, Tamiya's 82017 Polycarbonate PC-17 Metallic Green is a practical pick. This 23ml bottle is made for polycarbonate and provides a long-lasting, reflective finish ideal for both track use and display models.

Key Advantages of PC-17 Metallic Green

Tamiya's reputation for paint quality continues with PC-17. The product suits modelers seeking consistent, attractive results on polycarbonate shells:

  • High Visual Impact: The metallic green highlights curves and edges with a vivid reflective quality.
  • Tailored Adhesion: Formulated for polycarbonate, it adheres well when applied in recommended layers.
  • Even Coverage: The paint spreads predictably to help you achieve uniform coats without visible streaks.

Best Practices for Painting Polycarbonate

Use these guidelines to get reliable results with PC-17 Metallic Green on your shells:

  • Remove dirt, oils and release agents before painting to ensure a clean surface.
  • Apply several thin coats rather than attempting full coverage in one pass.
  • Allow each coat to dry properly between applications to prevent blemishes and runs.
No special curing is required beyond normal drying time. Ensure each coat dries fully before applying the next to achieve a durable finish.
If a further protective layer is desired, choose products compatible with polycarbonate paints and test on a scrap area first to confirm adhesion and finish.
Keep the bottle tightly sealed in a cool, dry place away from direct sunlight. Shake well before reuse to re-disperse metallic pigments for even application.
