Was just wondering if anyone has tried spray a lexan shell using Plastikote spray paint? Found it at a local hobbycraft store. Same price as the normal Tamiya spray paints but you get about 4 times as much in a can.

I would be interested in people's experience of the product if any?

Thank you.

Hi,

Never tried it on lexan bodyshells but I have heard its good stuff for sorting out various bits of car trim (i.e. repairing buttons and knobs on your dashboard etc).

Sorry can't be anymore help.

Thanks. I'll bear it in mind for when the kids destroy the car interior! Lol.

It's not worth using.

Polycarbonate spray is for polycarbonate bodies/shells because it flexes when it's dried, the Plastikote stuff will probably just crack and last about 5 minutes if you try it.
