How Do You Wrap a RC Car Body?

Wrapping a RC car body isn’t that difficult, but it is time consuming. Before beginning the process, it’s important to make sure you have all the necessary supplies:

  • RC car body
  • Wrapping film
  • Heat gun or hairdryer
  • Utility knife or scissors
  • Squeegee or credit card

Once you’ve gathered all your supplies, you’re ready to begin. Start by cleaning the RC car body using a mild soap and water solution. Make sure to remove any dirt or debris that may be on the surface of the car body. Once cleaned, allow the RC car body to dry completely before proceeding.

Now you can begin applying the wrapping film. Start by cutting pieces of wrapping film that are slightly larger than each section of the body that you are going to wrap.

Now slowly peel away a small corner of the backing paper and carefully apply it to one side of the RC car body. Be careful not to stretch or tear the wrapping film as this can cause wrinkles and bubbles.

Once firmly in place, use a heat gun or hair dryer on low heat setting to gently heat up the wrapping film and make it easier to adjust into place. Use a squeegee or credit card to smooth out any wrinkles or bubbles that may appear during application.

Continue applying each piece of wrapping film until your RC car body is completely covered in vinyl wrap. Finally, use a utility knife or scissors to trim away any excess material from around edges and openings of your RC car body.

Conclusion:

Wrapping an RC car body is not difficult as long as you have all necessary supplies and take your time throughout each step of application. With patience and careful attention, you can easily give your RC car body a custom look with vinyl wrap!
