if it's like the vhb, then you'll want to follow my instructions to pull it horizontally instead of upward after you get the emblem and most of the mounting tape off.

Have to be careful with rc
Motorspray. Some of it is just relabeled brake cleaner. And since brushed rc racing died years ago I haven't seen it in shops in a while.

Some of it IS. Fwiw I was in the business for a while. Not all if it is created equal especially when regular guys started businesses selling rc stuff. It should not be, but many of them are.

Most if that stuff is rebranded items you can buy just about anywhere. Especially old brushed motor items.

do us a favor and




im just kidding. motor spray is good. i use it all the time. TA Emerald PerformancePlus3 (pre-VOC), Dynamite Magnumforce2 are both approved by kenchan. one can still get them readily. ive not tried the PerformancePlus4 yet, but im assuming its okay to use on painted car bits as well.
