Painting Camebers & Rod Ends

[Associated-08]

What paint should I use for painting the cambers and rod ends? Can I just use Spray paint or what should I use?

I assume you are talking about the link rods for the camber and toe-in and steering, and the plastic rod ends or ball cups? You could probably paint them with spray paint, but keep in mind that every time you put a tool to them to adjust or remove them you will scratch the paint off. That is why when a manufacturer changes the color of the rods they anodize the metal and the ball cups are molded in different colors.

You would probably have better luck getting some Losi white ballcups or RPM or something and dyeing them.

ok I was just going to try it out put prime them first so i get the full bright color, I just want to make my Mini-t look good. Already done plenty of hop ups. Thanks

If you really want to spray paint them, you can but I don't know how well they will hold up. I would spray them with an adhesion promotor for plastic then prime it and spray your colour. Get a spray paint for plastic though.
