So it will probably be a battered mess after a couple runs anyway 😂😂😂 What is involved in the shoo goo and tape method, i could use this on wifes outlaw shell make make it last more than one run out Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
.AJ. Posted December 28, 2020 Author Share Posted December 28, 2020 Use plasters tape on the inside then coat with shoe goo or a equivalent, I’m going to use the Gorilla adhesive that @mydoddy69discovered 👍 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

BashingBrian Posted December 28, 2020 Share Posted December 28, 2020 Is the rear end color metal flake ?? Are they the 1/4 or 1/2 offset terrain crushers ?? Looking good so far 👍🏼 I run my MT410 on Backflip 4s's or the new Copperheads, they are so much better than any of the proline wheel/tyre combos 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
.AJ. Posted December 28, 2020 Author Share Posted December 28, 2020 The wheels are 1/4 offset and the paint has a coat of Core RC clear sparkle and then black 👍 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

.AJ. Posted December 29, 2020 Author Share Posted December 29, 2020 Backflip 4s are on back order everywhere, they should be available at the end of January, you can get Copperheads from the eBay chop shops for about £80 a set 👍 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

.AJ. Posted December 30, 2020 Author Share Posted December 30, 2020 It’s been done a thousand times before on here and I used to always do it to my SCT bodies, it’s definitely worth doing 👍 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Tony Posted December 30, 2020 Share Posted December 30, 2020 I've been considering this ever since I saw Kevin Talbot doing it. I'm assuming the Gorilla adhesive worked out cheaper than using the Shoe Goo? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
.AJ. Posted December 30, 2020 Author Share Posted December 30, 2020 Yea it’s cheaper and more easily available 👍 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
