Give Your RC Shell a Metallic Finish with Tamiya PS-17

The Tamiya PS-17 Metallic Green 100ml spray is aimed at modellers painting polycarbonate bodies. It provides even coverage and a resilient surface when applied using inside-spray technique.

Spray Method for Best Results

Spray on the inner surface of the polycarbonate shell and keep the can roughly 30cm away to ensure uniform coverage. Let the initial coat dry fully before adding a second thin coat to increase colour depth. For trim work, use Tamiya bottle paints suited to polycarbonate detailing.

Durability Notes and Use Cases

This metallic finish withstands oil and fuel exposure, so it is appropriate for use on nitro and petrol powered RC bodies. The paint formulation helps the body retain its appearance during regular running.

The spray is optimised for polycarbonate shells. Adhesion on other plastics or metal is not guaranteed without a suitable primer.
A compatible clear for polycarbonate can enhance gloss and protection. Test on a scrap piece first to confirm adhesion and finish.
Spray in mild, dry conditions away from dust. Moderate temperatures help the paint level out and reduce imperfections.
Store upright in a cool, ventilated spot away from direct sunlight and heat sources. Shake well before each use.
