Status: offline 		Hi, i am doing a replica monster truck body, and i need to know how to fade paint. I've searched the site and couldnt come up with any thing. I need to fade red to yellow and yellow back into red. Can anyone help me? I will be using the rc car spray can paint.

Status: offline 		you can use a piece of paper and hold it about 2 inches from the body and spray this will not give you a solid line it will be faded and then apply next color same way
