How to Paint your Lexan Body
Once you are comfortable with your masking of the
body, it is time to apply paint. Be sure to fully read
and understand the directions of the paint you are
using as supplied on the can. We recommend using
lexan (polycarbonate) paint only. Normal household
paints will not yield good results.

Once the paint is dry, it is time to remove the
protective outer covering. This can be done by
using the tip of your hobby knife or finger to gently
peel up a corner and pulling it completely off.

Now is it time to apply the supplied decals to meet
your own personal style. You may now complete
the installation of the plastic accessories.

You can take this time to design a custom masking
design or paint in one solid color. There are many
advanced lexan body painting techniques available
online. We are only covering the basic techniques.
