FG bodies are said to be one of the most beautiful polycarbonate bodies worldwide. They impress by quality and faithful elaboration of every single detail. Give your model an individual painting to differ from others. Therefore you should make sure to use only the best materials in the processing. Perfect painting is one of the points. FG Colours sprays are excellently suited for painting polycabonate bodies.

FG Painting Guide:
We recommend to paint the inside of the body parts if they are transparent polycarbonate bodies. The paint is protected and the body will have more depth tot he colours.
Fig. 1: Clean the body parts with water and soap solution, especially the inside which you want to paint. Then dry it with a clean cloth. Only remove the outside protection film after painting! Now mask the colour differing areas (f.e. windows) with adhesive masking foil or masking tape.
Fig. 2: Cut the overlapping masking along the contour with a sharp model knife and pull it off. Press the mask well to the edges and passings in order to avoid the paint creaping under.
Fig. 3: When spraying the individual coats of paint please make sure that you apply them very thin. Let the single coats of paint dry well before you spray again.
Tip:If you use several colours then start with the darkest one. Finally spray the complete inside of the body parts with a little bit of white, this prevents a grinning-through and gives the main paint more brilliancy. Pull the mask off, if necessary remove the adhesive remainders with a spirit (check it is safe to use on some scrap plastic). For a better appearance you can spray the windows with a transparent colour so they look like tinted windows. Remove the outside protecting film. Mount the various body parts with enclosed screws together. Don’t tighten the screws too much.
