You want the POLYCARBOUNATE paint for lexan bodies, Pactra, Tamiya, Faskolor and several other companies make it.

Well I went to a arts and crafts store that sells model cars and planes and they had testors spray paint that said lacquer so I was wondering if it would work as good

It will work and then the first time you wreck the paint will chip off. The polycarbounate paint adheres to the lexan.

I've tried standard Testors and it does not adhere well at all. If you manage to get it to stick it will look pretty pooled and uneven most likely.

Tamiya PS-Sprays or Pactra only.

When i look up polycarbonate paints the testors come up and they all say lacquer on them nd other websites say they work well for rc cars
