How do you clean off road RC vehicles after bashing or racing?

InfinitySpeed04

After my bashing and racing I either use an air can or an air compressoe to clean of my car. I just go to meijer nad buy some cheap cans of compressed air and they have a little nozzle on them to remove all the dirt and stuff.

i use a paint brush. takes a bit off time but is cheaper then air cans

I did that when all I was doing was blowing dust out of the inside of my computers. After I cleaned my truck the first, I realized I could've bought a compressor twice paying $5 for a can of compressed air. If I was lucky I found a 4 pack for $12, and another bad thing is you gotta let those little cans warm up or they have no pressure. I bought the $100 compressor that Home Depot sells. No more canned air for me.

take out all my electrics....radio gear....esc..motor.....
wash the chasis in a soapy solution.....the hair dry the chasis.....hair dryer should be on a cool air setting..
cotton buds are great for those hard to reach nooks n crannies...
an old tooth brush..

I use WD-40/air compressor/tooth brush[8D]

wd-40 on those plastic pieces, makes them look like new

also use a little nitro fuel on the your air cleaner to make it look like new, this works very well, but rinse it well with water afterwords to get the nitro fuel off, other wise when it evaporates it will leave oil behind

I use a small paint brush and wisk away the dirt . then after so many runs I will pull the engine, reciever,servos,and trans. and give it a good cleaning.

Thanks for all the replies. I got the air compressor, a spray attachment and also some wd-40. I also got some denatured alcohol from my local hardware store. I already have the paint brushes. I did not even know that wd-40can also be used for cleaning rc cars. Now, I don't have to buy the nitro cleaner at over $5.00 a can and 1 can is not even enough to clean my Savage.
Again, thanks.
