FAQs

What Tamiya RC model are these stickers for?

These stickers are specifically designed for the Tamiya Lunch Box RC car model number 58347.

Do these stickers improve the car's performance?

No, these stickers are purely for cosmetic purposes and do not affect the RC car's speed, handling, or any performance characteristics.

Are these original Tamiya parts?

Yes, these are official Tamiya replacement stickers for the specified model.

How do I apply the stickers correctly?

Clean the car body, carefully position the sticker, peel the backing while smoothing, and press out any air bubbles with a soft cloth or squeegee.

Can I use these stickers on other Tamiya models?

These stickers are cut and designed specifically for the Tamiya Lunch Box 58347. While they might be adaptable to other models, fitment is not guaranteed.

What should I do if I get air bubbles?

Try to lift the sticker edge and reapply, smoothing from the center. For persistent bubbles, a tiny pinprick can release the air, allowing you to press it flat.

How should I clean the stickers?

Gently wipe with a slightly damp cloth. Avoid abrasive cleaners or high-pressure water.

Troubleshooting

Stickers not adhering properly

Ensure the body shell surface is completely clean, dry, and free from any contaminants. Reapply heat gently with a hairdryer (low setting) to reactivate the adhesive, then press firmly.

Air bubbles trapped under the sticker

If possible, carefully lift the edge of the sticker and reapply, smoothing from the center outwards. For small, unavoidable bubbles, a pinprick can release the air, followed by pressing the sticker flat.

Sticker placed incorrectly

Attempt to gently lift the sticker immediately after placement. If the adhesive is still weak, you may be able to reposition it. If it's firmly adhered, it might be difficult to remove without damage; consider using the remaining stickers or ordering replacements.

Setup, Compatibility & Care

Compatibility: This sticker set is specifically designed for the Tamiya Lunch Box radio control car model number 58347. Ensure you have this specific model before purchasing.

Application:

  1. Clean the Surface: Ensure the car's body shell is clean, dry, and free from dust, grease, or old sticker residue. Isopropyl alcohol can be used for thorough cleaning.
  2. Positioning: Carefully position the sticker without peeling the backing to ensure correct placement. Use masking tape to temporarily hold the sticker in place if needed.
  3. Application: Slowly peel back the backing paper while smoothing the sticker onto the body shell. Use a soft cloth or a plastic squeegee to press out any air bubbles as you go.
  4. Trimming: For any larger stickers, use a sharp hobby knife to trim excess material carefully if required.

Care:

  • Avoid direct exposure to extreme heat or prolonged sunlight, which can cause fading or adhesive degradation.
  • Clean the stickers gently with a slightly damp cloth if they become dirty. Avoid abrasive cleaners or solvents.
  • When washing the RC car, try to avoid directly spraying high-pressure water onto the stickers.
