How Do I Protect My RC Car From Water?

Protecting your radio controlled (RC) car from water can be a challenge. It is important to take the proper steps to protect your car from the elements, especially water. There are several precautionary measures you can take to ensure your RC car is safe from water damage.

Choose an Appropriate Location

When operating your RC car, it’s important that you choose an appropriate location. Selecting a location that is not prone to flooding or heavy rainfall is ideal. If possible, select a flat surface with limited access to standing water.

Weatherproof Your Car

Seal All Openings

Make sure all openings on the car are sealed with protective rubber gaskets or foam padding. This will help keep moisture out of any electrical components and prevent corrosion.

Spray Your Car

It’s also a good idea to spray the exterior of your RC car with a weatherproof sealant. This will help protect it from dirt and debris, as well as moisture.

Use Waterproof Grease

Using waterproof grease on all moving parts – such as gears and axles – can also help protect your car from water damage. Be sure to check your manufacturer instructions for specific instructions on lubricating parts.

Conclusion:
By following these steps, you can help protect your RC car from water damage. Choose an appropriate location, seal all openings, spray it with a weatherproof sealant, and use waterproof grease on all moving parts. These precautions will ensure that your RC car remains safe for many years of fun!
