There are already other 2.4ghz radios with analog trims out there. But Futaba works best with the MFC.

Interesting. So if you paint with black, you back it with, what....?

I tend to apply very light coats - (I have had an issue or 2 with too heavy coats, paint pooling, screwing it all up, so I'm extra paranoid), so I'm sure I'd need more than 2. But - I get your point. Instead of dumping a whole can on it, just get it visually good, and back it.

I just don't fully understand the backing concept. Please elaborate.

Status: online 		on some colours, like my Touareg, on a bright day the light does slightly shine through it, so by being 'backed' with white or silver, it would appear solid, i think backing makes most difference on metallic colours.
