can i use regular spray paint on a lexan body? If not, is there anything that i could mod up for my compressor if i dont want to buy an airbrush?

You need to use paint made for lexan. They do have spray cans at most model shops. You do not have to use an air brush.

How do i know if the paint is approved for lexan? would it say safe on plastics or sumthin?

When you go to local hobby shop they will show you which is for which.

just make sure it isn't regular paint...my friend painted his car very cool with regular spray paint and when he hit the wall it just shattered all off. lol Trust me, it is worth the extra couple bux.

Does anyone know or recommend any brands of spray paint that I can use? I have to drive pretty far to get to my LHS so I want to avoid it if i can.

Pactra makes excellent RC Paint and you can buy it at http://www.towerhobbies.com Search for the 3 oz. spay cans.

I dont want to order offline either. Any paints at Wal-Mart or something? What about rustoleum or that other paint you always see with the three primary colors on the front of the can
