For maintenance, you can clean the wheels regularly with a soft, dry cloth to keep the car running smoothly. If you want to add grime and rust to the car to make it look more realistic, you can start with the primed surface. Just use appropriate model - painting materials and follow the instructions on the products. This car is recommended for users aged 14 and up, so keep it away from younger children who might not handle it properly.
