Airbrushing backwards on clear Lexan RC car bodies is a technique that can be used to create stunning and realistic paint jobs. However, it can be a bit tricky to master, so in this article, I'll walk you through the process step-by-step.
Materials You'll Need
- Clear Lexan RC car body
- Airbrush
- Airbrush compressor
- Airbrush paint
- Masking tape
- Sandpaper
- Clear coat
Step-by-Step Instructions
1. Prepare the RC Car Body
The first step is to prepare the RC car body for painting. This involves sanding the body with fine-grit sandpaper to remove any imperfections. Once the body is sanded, clean it with a mild detergent and water to remove any dust or debris.
2. Mask the Body
Once the body is clean, it's time to mask off the areas that you don't want to paint. This can be done with masking tape or liquid masking fluid. If you're using masking tape, make sure to press it down firmly so that there are no gaps.
3. Apply the Base Coat
The next step is to apply the base coat. This is the color that will be the foundation of your paint job. When applying the base coat, it's important to use light, even strokes. Avoid applying too much paint at once, as this can cause runs or sags.
4. Airbrush Backwards
Now comes the fun part: airbrushing backwards. To do this, you'll need to hold the airbrush about 6 inches away from the body and spray towards the edge of the masking tape. This will create a soft, feathered edge that will help to blend the colors together.
As you airbrush backwards, be sure to vary the distance between the airbrush and the body. This will create different effects, such as highlights and shadows.
5. Remove the Masking Tape
Once you're happy with the airbrushing, it's time to remove the masking tape. Do this carefully so that you don't damage the paint job.
6. Apply the Clear Coat
The final step is to apply a clear coat to protect the paint job. This will help to seal in the paint and prevent it from chipping or peeling.
Tips for Airbrushing Backwards
- Use a light touch when airbrushing backwards. This will help to prevent runs or sags.
- Vary the distance between the airbrush and the body to create different effects.
- Don't be afraid to experiment. The more you practice, the better you'll become at airbrushing backwards.
Airbrushing backwards on clear Lexan RC car bodies is a great way to create stunning and realistic paint jobs. With a little practice, you can master this technique and create your own custom RC car bodies.
