    Flex seal it next time... Last 5 x longer and less messy than shoe goo and way better.. Also grab a set of rpm roof skids and body saver kit 👌

    I got some rubber body washers I need to put on…I should definitely try using flex seal cause the shoe goo and drywall tape method takes way too long in my opinion.

    Pull the window stickers and get some window tint paint. Be careful spraying it as it is super thin and has a tendency to run easily but tinted windows provide a scale look that is unmatched.

    Almost every single rc body comes with an outside film that you peel off after you’re done. Prevents any overspray.
