Well, even if it does stick, if you paint it on the inside, it's not going to be flat.

You could use some lexan paint, pant it, and then scuff the outside to make it not so shiny, but it's not the same thing.

See if you can find on tamiyaclub or through youtube, a user that, on tamiyaclub, went by the name, Wyoming.

He painted almost all of his cars on the outside with great success.

This is a link to one his cars:
