"First off, always start with a good clean surface. Wash the body with soap and water to get rid of any grease or dust. Then, use a primer before you paint – it helps the paint stick better. I usually go for a spray paint designed for plastic, and light coats are key. Just build up the color gradually to avoid runs!"

"Honestly, prep work is everything! Make sure to sand the body lightly to help the paint adhere. I like to use acrylic paints since they’re easy to work with and clean up. And don't forget to let each layer dry completely before adding the next one. It makes a huge difference in the final look!"
