Here's a little tip for clean line if you're doing your car two tone or just for general masking. Instead of using masking tape which has a slightly rough edge. Use electrial insulating tape, It doesn't leave any glue residue on the paint and in some cases, can be curved without it folding on itself. Works for me. |

There's also a thing called fine-line tape mate! Its about 4mm wide and its what spray painter use to put flames on cars, cause its so thin its easy to work with!! U can get thicker bits but gets harder to use when ur bending it, if u get me! |
