Title: Re: Painting a lexan body Post by: xplosifly on May 10, 2010, 11:40:54 PM Well i really don't have an idea where you could get Lexan Spray Paints. But i have tried painting one of my r/c car bodies with Bosny Spray Paint. The job really looks good and isn't showing any signs of cracking. Actually the Bosny Range is not just limited to Automotive paints, but also extends to Acrylic paints which i think are suitable for lexan bodies. The Acyrlic range includes laquers, shimmer, glitter, flouroscent, and glow paints.
Try Them, The first coat is very important as you need to get a very even coat and no residue or droplets.

Could you please give me a link? @xplosify Where do you get these paints? Title: Re: Painting a lexan body Post by: xplosifly on May 11, 2010, 10:02:23 PM @divyam: The Bosny paints are available at a lot of stationery shops and hardware shops. Need to be careful on what u choose. It needs to be acrylic based.
