or if ur a good hand with masking tape u can use the sticky side to remove it! then put another coat over it to cover the tape mark lft in the wet paint!!

another car trick i learned in a spray booth! lol

yep thats a top bit of kit and well cheap - i made one myself and it's real handy - much better than trying to man handle the wet model
