How to paint the tips of your propeller

Such an easy process and yet, we often leave our props with plain and ugly tips. Take 5 minutes and paint the tips. Your pretty rc plane will appreciate the efforts and who knows, it may make you a better rc pilot...

Excellent show Will ! I do some of that as well. You certainly got some fine, crisp lines with your paint! I also like to balance my prop along with this process. So if I need to add weight to a blade - I may repeat the process and give that blade a wee bit of extra paint. Then, for final balancing - I find that lightly sanding away some paint from the heavy blades can balance and finish the job. (I love the smoothness of a well balanced prop!)

No doubt.. I probably should've mentioned balancing the prop after the painting.. Maybe another quick shop tip... Thanks buddy...

After the masking tape, I use my wife's nail polish. It even comes with a little brush. Works great.

[@motovick]

Is there any particular reason you are using the flat finish?

[@SteffenRC]

Nope.. Just what I had at hand.. Kinda like it vs gloss...
