Meguiars, has some 3 step polish for boat windows and stuff like that.

It might work.

Could check a fish store. THey have stuff they use to buff scratches out of acrylic tanks aswell but then again why worry about it when it will only get scratched worse? :flipoff:

Ya its a bit scratched up. Figured I would try to remove some of them seeing as how much time I put into painting the thing...

Well if you liked the paint job so much. Why did't you make it a show body?

VMGontheRocks · May 24, 2006

I'll make you a deal. You can have my new Bronco body if I can have your old one.

after awhile and a few hundred bodies, painting is only a 10 minute thing.

Ya I know. I did a two color paint job in 45 minutes. 44 minutes was waiting for it to dry

Once you get used to painting lexon, all it takes is a good flash off on the paint and you can go to town on the multi colors.

You might ruin one body trying to figure out what I am talking about, but I have been painting for years and not just lexon bodies.

Hell I spend all day painting mine then I cut the piss out of them. I really need to use a blow dryer to dry the paint faster to speed the process up. :haha:
