On Point spray paints have been specially developed for the painting of Polycarbonate bodies.
400ml
Before you begin ... Remove any dirt particles from the surface to be painted.
Polycarbonate bodies
Cut out the body and sand the cut edges. Many bodies have a transparent protective foil on the outside. Do not remove this protective foil until the paint has dried! Mask all areas that are not to be painted, by using masking film or masking tape. First paint the dark and then the light colours so as to prevent the dark colours from shining through the lighter ones. Always check to make sure that the surfaces are dry and free of dust before painting!
On Point Paint for polycarbonate is a premium, fuel proof paint for R/C bodies.?áTo obtain the best results, follow these simple instructions:
- Shake it like you shake your friend's pop can when they aren't looking.
- Have your can a full Maple Leaf away (20cm) from the body while spraying
- Apply a thin layer of paint unlike the amount of gravy on a good poutine
- Keep your hands off your body and sing O'Canada 6.5 times (10 minutes) while the layers dry
- Allow 2 quarters of a Lacrosse game (30 minutes) for full curing
- After use, turn the can upside down and spray for 2 sec. until the nozzle is empty.
Warning:?áWhile spraying, leave your can upright. Spraying your can while inverted may result in you questioning your life choices
Special instructions for Fluorescent Colours
Fluorescent colours appear not to cover as well as normal colours. While spraying you must make sure to apply only very light coats. Always use at temperatures above 15??C. Spray from a distance of +/-15/20 cm. Allow the colour to dry for 30 min. and back the fluorescent colour with?á150ml White?áor?á400ml White?áOn Point paint. Only then the desired fluorescent effect will be obtained!
Coloring of windows
For coloring the windows you can use the On Point transparent?áSmoke?áspray colour. Allow the entire painted body to dry for 10 min. before you paint the windows. Spray the transparent colour onto the body from a distance of approx. 30 to 40 cm. Make sure you apply only a very light coat of paint as bleeding around the windows might easily spoil the overall appearance of an otherwise beautifully painted body!
Special instructions for?áSilver Glitter
Glitter colours are structured so that they must be sprayed first onto the body. Special care should be taken with these colours to apply very light coats only! These colours are only effect particles that are sprayed onto the body. These colours do not cover! Allow the applied glitter particles to dry for approx. 10 min. before covering them with a base colour.
Special instructions for?áChrome
The chrome effect depends on how carefully you follow the instructions! Recommended working temperature: +/- 20??C. Spray very thin even coats (+/-15) on your body with intervals of approx. 2 minutes. This in order to counter undesirable side-effects (matting). Then spray On Point?áChrome Varnish?áor On Point?áSmoke?áfrom a distance of approx. 30 cm in very thin coats (+/- 8) to seal the Chrome paint. NB: Do not sand in front when using chrome onto your body (scratch effect)
