Ok so I am not sure whether this posted in the right area but here goes.
My son wants to make a Cobra version of the APC so I am going to paint it Cobra blue with a grey canopy. I also want to replace the cannon with a seat mounted mini-gun. My question is how do I remove the wheels in order to paint the body blue? I want to spray paint it. Any help would be great! Thanks

why not use newspaper and some masking tape and tape them up?

You can also get painter's tape, which is similar to masking tape but designed specifically for painting.

As for taking them off. It might be able to be done by grabbing both wheels on one axle and pulling until one comes off, but there is also a good chance you'll strip out where the axle/bar inserts into the wheel or you'll break that part of the wheel. It's safer to just mask off the wheels and paint it |
