Hobbynox Neon Yellow Color Tips:
Note all neon colors are somewhat transparent and need to be backed with Hobbynox white.
Normally two thin layers of neon yellow is needed - make sure that it dries completely before covering it with white. If you forget the white it will not look "neon".
If you want to add more colors after the neon (backed with Hobbynox white) - you might want to add a thin layer of silver so the other colors won't bleed through.

Generic bodyshell painting tips from Pro-Line:
Cutting Your Bodyshell
Cut out the transparent bodyshell with a pair of scissors or a sharp hobby knife with a new blade installed. Pay attention to keeping the corners smooth and with a radius. If you cut corners sharply the bodyshell will most likely start cracking at that place.
Body Mount Holes etc
Use a body reamer to make holes in the bodyshell. The PROTOform Crosshair Body Mounting Kit #PF6032-00 can also be very helpful to location the body post holes if you forgot to do these holes prior to painting the bodyshell...
Sand the Edges Smooth
Smooth out any rough spots.
Don't remove the protective film
Leave the transparent protective film on the outside of the bodyshell on while painting.
Wash your Body
To remove any residue left on the body after molding, you must wash it inside and out. Use warm soapy (liquid dish washing detergent) water in your sink, paying special attention to the tight curved areas and corners. Rinse the body in warm water. Dry the body with a clean towel or hair dryer. It must be completely dry before you paint it.
Window Masks
If your bodyshell came equipped with pre-cut window masks: Using the molded in window lines as a guide apply the window masks to the inside the body. Be sure to press down all the edges to keep paint from sneaking under. The masks keep the windows clear while you paint.
