Vibrant Metallic Red Finish for RC Bodies

Created for polycarbonate RC car shells, the Tamiya 86015 PS-15 Metallic Red Spray Paint 100ml delivers a crisp metallic red appearance. The compact 100ml can makes it easy to paint a single body or keep for future touch ups.

Best Practices for Spraying

Spray from the inside of the shell and maintain a distance of about 30cm for even coverage. Apply light, overlapping passes and let the first coat cure before adding another for stronger colour and wear resistance. Use Tamiya bottle paints for fine detailing work.

Performance and Suitability

This lacquer is formulated to resist oil and fuel, so it is suitable for both electric and gas powered RC cars. The finish is designed to cope with normal running stresses while keeping the model looking sharp.

Will this paint peel under heavy use?

If applied correctly with inside spraying and proper curing, peeling is uncommon. Heavy impacts can still chip paint like any finish.

Can I clear coat over this paint?

Polycarbonate paints are usually left as the final coat on the inside. External clear coats are not recommended for lexan shells; use recommended sealing methods instead.

How long before I can fit the body to the chassis?

Wait until the paint is fully cured to the touch and handles light pressure without marking. Curing times vary with temperature and humidity.

Are there recommended masking techniques?

Use low tack masking tape and paper for windows and trim. Remove masks after drying to avoid tearing soft paint edges.
