Acid marks on body

petewilliams · 01-17-2013, 11:06 AM

I have a couple employees that put figure print marks on the bodies. They were topping off the batteries and got acid on there figures. Any ideas on how to repair this problem.

Thank you

Take a fully charged and well aimed cattle prod to the "Boys" of the offenders?

Seriously, you might be able to buff it out with a light compound if the damage isn't too bad. If not, it'll be time to break out the body work tools for a spot repair.

A BGW decal might cover the damage? I know when I paint RC car bodies, they are clear and painted on the inside of the body so you have to work in reverse. It is easy to make a mistake, so a decal will 'camouflage' them.

I thought of that... These carts are all numbered. just relocating the number might work on a couple. thanks

Use some 1000 grit wet or dry sand paper and then very fine compound.Works great on DS bodys a little more sensitive on the precedent bodys.
