How should I clean the body panels?

Troubleshooting
Body panels do not fit correctly
Verify that you are attempting to fit the panels onto the intended FTX Mauler model. If fitting to a different chassis, minor adjustments to mounting points or body clips may be necessary. Consult community forums for advice on adapting to specific models.
Paint chipping or scratching
While durable, the painted finish can be damaged by severe impacts. For minor scratches, touch-up paint may be available from the manufacturer. For significant damage, replacement panels may be required.
Difficulty attaching body clips
Ensure the mounting holes on the body panels align correctly with the chassis's mounting posts. If holes appear too small, carefully ream them slightly with a hobby knife or drill bit to match the post diameter.

Setup, Compatibility & Care
Setup: These body panels are designed for direct installation onto the FTX Mauler RC model. Ensure your chassis is clean and free of debris before attachment. Use the appropriate body clips or mounting hardware designed for your specific RC model to secure the panels.
Compatibility: Primarily designed for the FTX Mauler. While compatible with various RC models and brands, users may need to check measurements or make minor modifications for a perfect fit on non-FTX chassis. It is listed under categories such as Tamiya RC Cars, indicating potential cross-compatibility with some Tamiya models, though this is not guaranteed without verification.
Care: To maintain the vibrant yellow finish, clean the body panels with a soft, damp cloth. Avoid using harsh chemicals or abrasive cleaners, as these can damage the paintwork. For deeper cleaning, a mild soap and water solution can be used, followed by rinsing and thorough drying.
