Jason this video is great! I really enjoy and get a lot of value out of your routine RC videos and how you do things. My cars will look nicer thanks to you.

Great quick video. Thanks for uploading

Love Sunday Videos!

Great video thanks buddy 👍👊 U are the man 😎

Thanks for the video. I needed that info.

My old 1/8th scale routine: simple green, car was, air gun, & wd40. Pretty standard and then I could wash my full size car at the same time! :) Great work!

Awesome ! I used to do the same when I was running my Nitro RS4 From HPI.

Here I am using a toothbrush and qtips on my typhon lol. Thank you for the paint brush tip! I used a silicone aerosol spray not wd40 but still the paint brush is absolutely perfect!

Great Video as usual. The WD 40 wont attract more dirt? I guess your wiping it down really good. Have you driven that Tekno EB48.3 yet? Would love to hear your opinion given your driving skills !

Hey man great video on the sc1 you spray it on the brush and apply it? why not on a rag? going to pick some up this weekend.

Thanks brother very helpful and I like my rides clean!!! Getting them dirty is part of the game but man I see people that never clean their shxx and it drives me crazy.

Great ideas! I like to use Sprayway glass cleaner on my lexans.... works great! (Also smells good)

Good info, thanks for passing it on.

awesome enjoyed your tip great job thanks..

3 days ago, I started disassembling and cleaning my 1:8 nitro buggy, today I finished it. Going to take it to a hobby shop to get it checked out, and to get a pull start, buggy wheels, a new body and an antenna tube.

Thanks! I will use this for SCT racing! How well will winded work compared to simple green?

Great tips. But one thing I feel was overlooked, if you want to keep your cleaning brushes (paint brushes) in shape and lasting a longer time, store them in the package they came in. It's not just a package it is there to store and keep the brush in shape.

Thanks for the helpful tips! Can I ask what to lube the chairs parts with, like the ball link, shock mounts...etc. do yo put any oil on the machine after to clean it?

I'm a painter and a rc enthusiast. Big nitro head. I would recommend keeping that black china bristle brush in its keeper. It will help it keep its shape longer. That is if you don't already. Love your videos. They helped me out in more than one occasion.

What about glass cleaning foam and compressor? Cleaning lady at work uses that for car air wents and it works pretty good

Very nice vid, sir. I have to say the first 35 seconds send me in to a trance. Unfortunately I am truly insane now due to my brain going in to screen saver mode. Thumbs up regardless. . ;-)

So with the simple green do you wash it off with water after your done or just leave it? Personally i just hit it with an air compressor brush of the dirt soak a rag in some of that silicone wd40 and wipe off as much as i can. I used to use simple green but it seems useless now because the silicone wd40 is basically the CLP. Now for the tires i still use simple green for those. Btw great vids i watch them all the time.

cool vid great tips!

nice video, dude !

do you have an emial have a coue questions for you. amazing vids btw

Black Magic Tire Wet works great on the plastics as well...

I have started using tyre shine aerosol spray from the auto parts store. It is essentially just cheap silicone spray. It's only a couple of dollars for a large can.

quick tip. I use dashboard cleaner but the one with silicone in for my motorcycles, it works well and repels water and fine dust. just a thought.

Bro...you call that dirty? My entire chassy and cakes in dirt and mud

What's a good compressor to buy? I have a 2 car garage for storage and wouldn't mind being able to use it for power tools and also small paint jobs...

Hey. Can you put a different body on a sct so it does not throw dirt into the truck ?

nice video amigo!!!

I find furniture polish like mr sheen works well to get rid of sticky dust, on loose dusty tracks, the wd40 causes dirt and dust to stick to the car more

What about all the internals like shocks, transmission and gears, drive shafts, and bearings and the electronics Thant would make a good part 2 to this video

Muck off makes good products mainly for cleaning mountain bikes, but their mo-94 had a ptfe formula that coats the metals and plastics. makes joints, hinges, bearings and shocks smoother last longer.

What size of a air compressure do you use for cleaning rc cars

Good vid like how u explained the steps but I would recommend not using wd40 for one it eats plastic away over time two it is possible that your screws will loosen and 3 the most important is that wd40 will short out electronics so if u really don't care about the plastic getting eaten away and screws loosening then be sure to pull all electronics and allow to dry for 24 hours because u will short out your electronics other than that great video

For those 2 sprays like the WD40 thing, can you use it on a rc car that is not water proof or does it have to be on a waterproof RC? Please answer! Thanks

Hey jason, is the simple green gonna damage the bearings?

I just got into RC car hobby, and was looking into purchasing a cheap air compressor to help clean and blow away dirt from my RC car body/chassis and electronics after running it through the dirt and mud. There's a cheap 3 gallon, 100psi pancake shape air compressor from Harbor Freight - do you think this is good enough to use? thx

I clean my cars the same way with WD40, it lubricates all the hinge pins and ball cups, plus keeps all the screws from rusting during the off season. Bad for the plastic? maybe....but no worse than my driving. I have the SC-1, but it's not my favorite. I have to agree with Ty about the smell. I use the .99 cent Home Depot Brushes. The trick is to cut the bristles in half, it keeps them from getting bushy. If you cut them even shorter they work great for tire sauce.

Any thoughts on spraying entire car with simple green and then rinsing it off in a laundry tub? Is it ok to get everything wet?

Jason try TQ Clean stuff is amazing!!!!!!

SC1 is the best stuff ever, used it for years on my dirtbikes, they called it new bike in a can.

Do you remove all of the electronics when you clean the car? Also, do you clean them in this fashion after every time you run them? Thanks for the video really cool!

That looks like an associated 8.2 to me...are Mugen made by the same company? Even has the XP servo in it.

OMG i have the same blue plaint brush to clean my stuff

thanks i will use this for 4x4 Ruckus Monster Truck can you buy the compressed air at hardware store hose i mean or do u have to go to special shop or gas station to clean it with compressed Air??

after the simple green do u wash it off with water

Ok. I have a nitro powered kyosho and there is grease all over the chassis and shocks. Can o use this method to clean all the grease and oil off of the shocks and chassis?

Thanks man

Sc1 been using that for yrs on my sport bike to polish it up now moo rc I think that the name they have some detail stuff for plastic an electronic

Nice vid One thing to add: never never ever apply WD40 onto your brake pads. They'll get softy and wear like a paper-made. Also, Jason, when you plan to post a vid with breakin routine?

I used sc1 but found u can get the same results with any old silicone spray which ng is what sc1 is. Lol I now use the Honda Pro Oils silicone spray cuz i can get it cheaper that the sc1 through my local honda motorcycle dealer

I'm new to rc, I have a 1/10 . I need all the information I can get! Help!! Thank you.

Were do you go to race?

I use a vacuum and a mop, pee works well also, lol actually I used a vacuum cleaner called metro-vac to vacuum up loose debris and on the other end of my metro-vac it blows out air which works like compressed air, keeps my car RC cars clean and my work area. the simple green is awesome I used on my RC cars also I use it to degrease my real cars engine bay and it leaves the rubber hoses looking like new. I also use dry lubricant from a company called CRC and I use their electrical contact cleaner too.

thanks!

Denatured Alcohol works really well too. Especially for electronics, just let it dry before turning your stuff back on.

can we use diesel for lubrication?

i use wd40 all the time now, especially on the tires, havent really seen anything go bad with the plastic yet... what is the reasons you wouldnt want to use wd40?

i use a tooth brush and 3and 1 to clean my truck. with damp clean rag

I work at a paint store you want to ask for a natural bristle or boar hair bristle brush.

I've found that pledge wood cleaner works amazing. Smells like lemon and keeps dirt from sticking.

lol I used to use that cleaner on my dirt bikes and it does smell like a portapotty. But simple green smell isn't much better lol

Can you soak it in the wd40. Will it be the same results

Two things in this video I like RC cars and painting🤙 and that's called a China bristle brush

I was always taught that WD 40 will eventually eat up plastic. I believe it also says on the container should not be sprayed on plastics.

What is tire sauce? And how does it Benefit the trucks performance?

I hit my 5th scale with the compressor, then spray it down with simple green and hit it with the hose, then the air compressor. done lol probly shouldn't use the hose but 5th scale gets really dirty. alot of guys don't really even clean there cars, I can't work on a dirty car

Is there any 1/5 scale gas powered engine rc buggy racing in California

SC1 is the only thing I use, it's made for cleaning plastic.

I heard that brush cry as it went through the saw

I've moved from Simple Green to Spray Nine. Less odor and good price, amazon.

I just spray la's totally awesome realy hard all over and especially on suspention and drive drain parts and oh yeah, it makes dirt on tires disappear.

is $159cad a lot for a velineon moter with esc? and $95 for a 5000 mah lipo?

Cut the paint brash bristles down rap the metal with tape it will work better and won't scratch!

HAPPY FACE!!!

how many kv have your motor in the mugen buggy?

Awesome video for a noob like me

New comer just trying to learn what to do about cleaning t/u.

damn dude, you look just like john caparulo.

Cant use silicone spray

I noticed you had to literally take apart your Rc Completely!!!! If I did that I would have to consider my rc broken cause no way I'll be able to put it back together! I am so envious of how you guys know all these things and capable of dissembling assembling and uoragrading your rc. I want to do the same but I'm far from that level. Ugh

Great vid! That's way better than what I do? I just take mine in the shower with me!

Who are the tasman's

Seriously, try making an "all-in-one" cleaner. Use 60% Simple Green, 30% Rubbing Alcohol, and 10% WD-40. Then just dunk a toothbrush in it and get to scrubbing! When you are done, towel off any excess fluid. The rest will dry automatically from the alcohol. It will clean dirt, dust, grease, and oil. It will also brighten the plastics. TRY IT!!!!

What is simple green?

WD-40 and other petroleum based lubricants are actually bad for plastics. you may want to try a 100% pure silicone spray instead. works as good or better and won't affect any plastics

i remove the electronics.... and spray the whole car with WD-40 and air compress the whole thing....looks brand new and everything is lubed.....

just use LA's totally awesome dude

Idk about wd40, 1 attract a lot of dirt, 2 the bearing would’nt like wd40 on them but better yet I could be wrong 😑

You left alot of stuff out. one car had the electronics in and the other didnt. one had no shocks. are you taking all these out. do you get in to the diffs. very lacking

why dont you clean it with water?

Wd40 on plastic? I didn't think that was good for the plastic....

Really does smell like cherries

wtf this just spun me out clicking on a random rc cleaning vid and its Nerdly..

I hit my rc with 120 psi air compressor. 🤣 not much lasts after that.

Wd40 weakens the plastic

It’s a horse hair brush
