RE: Strange paint finish ! what do you think ?

If you want to use auto paint, I'd go with Auto Air paints. I've had a lot of good luck with them.

Did you wash the body with soap and water and completely dry it before you painted? How thick...

That's some nice work there, Ranger1!

Just finished up this one a couple nights ago.

RE: Airbrush

Frisket film would be ok, but make sure it's high tack. A low / medium tends to lift at and contour change when it's got air coming at it.

For striping, I always use K-tape, though. Awesome...

RE: Best Liquid Mask

Yep, Bob Dively. No other LPM has worked well for me.

3m High Tack masking tape and Kustom Shop pinstriping tape takes care of the rest.

I've been getting back into painting some more lately, so here's a few that I've finished up in the last couple of weeks.

RE: What body on a Nitro Rustler

http://www.jconcepts.net/store/index.php?main_page=product_info&cPath=2_6&products_id=187

The Jconcepts body fits perfectly and looks awesome. I'd go with that.

RE: SPUR GEAR SPRING WASHER!!

The whole thrust bearing kit is just a few bucks. I'd just order a spare or two when you need some other parts.

RE: What should I buy next?

From your list, I'd go Revo 3.3 or Slayer.

Not brake fluid, brake cleaner. Works like a charm.

RE: Anyone had any experience with the GO-Tech 28 Engines for MT?

I'm pretty sure they bought some of the previous gen Novarossi engine technology, so they are pretty much a Novarossi made by a different company. They seem to be pretty good so far. I almost put...

RE: Breaking in New Aftershock

Yeah, the new exhaust would help big-time. The LST2 2 Speed assembly would be a good idea, too, since the Aftershock uses a bushing system and the LST2 uses a bearing.

RE: glow plug for ur monster truck

I run MC-59 and MC-8 in everything I own. They tend to last me a long time.

RE: SLOW START LST

The Nova shoes are nice. I've never had a problem with the stock LST2 shoes, though. They last a good long time and take-off is great.

RE: Breaking in New Aftershock

Tighten until you get tension. Tightening them too far is not good for the needle housing.

My experience with Mach 427s (never ran a 26ss) is that the factory setting is very rich and I often...

RE: Best MONSTER TRUCK

Put the big 4 on a dartboard and toss a dart to make your pick. Seriously, the LST2, Revo, Savage, and MGT are all good trucks. I've owned or ran all of them and they all have their pluses and...

RE: Losi Super Truck Pictures

From a couple weeks ago...although I liked the beach so much, I stuck the monster baja body and paddles on it now.

RE: What Mini to get out in Iraq

I'd say an RC18T or a Duratrax Vandetta ST would be a great choice. Both seem to be able to take a beating and keep on going.

RE: side winder micro?

Yes, it's better than the Mamba 25. What vehicle, setup, and conditions will you be running the motor in? That will make all the difference for what you should choose.

RE: Help me set this up right...THE FIRST TIME!

Looks like you're well on your way. I'd definitely go with the 3Racing shocks. They are far superior to the FT shocks, IMO.

Another thing that I'd recommend is getting the FFRC rubber...

RE: Sidewinder and Motor Connection Size

The 1/10 uses 4mm connectors and mine came with 3 extra motor connectors in the box. Your best bet is to just call / email CC, they're quick and helpful.

RE: Got a batt, motor and ecs looking for a mini to go with.

Grab these battery strap thumbscrews to hold in the 3S battery. They work well in the stock battery posts on the buggy. http://www.amainhobbies.com/product_info.php/products_id/16769
