**Choose Your Colors**: Pick a color palette that you love. You can go bold with bright colors or keep it sleek with metallics. Make sure to get high-quality paint that’s suitable for plastic surfaces, like acrylic or enamel.

**Prep Your Car**: Before you start painting, clean your slot car thoroughly to remove any dust or grease. If needed, lightly sand the surface to help the paint stick better. Then, apply a primer if you’re using a darker color over a lighter base.

**Use Stencils or Tape**: For sharp lines and cool designs, use painter’s tape or create stencils. This way, you can achieve those intricate designs without freehanding everything. Just make sure to let each layer dry before moving on to the next.
