Hi, i have just masked up and attempted to lay down my first set of flames, I rubbed the guard back with 1000 grit wet before masking, I then mixed in a fine dark blue flake into the clear and applied 2 light coats, I then applied two coats of straight clear. (I am using 1 stage acrylic)
when i removed the masking tape and fine line blue tape i discovered that the thinners has melted the glue on the tape and left lots of residue behind,I made a point in buying the correct tape from the paint supplier, i have tried wax and grease remover and the lines left from the tape disappear when the wax and grease is still wet, but return once i wipe it dry, also would like to know the best way to remove the hard edge left behind from the fine line blue tape.
any help will be greatly appreciated.
thanks Brett
