Re: GMC tailgate lettering paint and masking.

It dont look to bad from the pic.

Is it the misty corners and the little bit in the "g"? Is that the problem?

I painted mine almost the same way you did but i used wide blue masking tape and slowly and gently cut the letters out with a sharp xcato knife.

It worked out pretty good that way.

I remember somebody here has their gate brush stripped around the letters and i think around the indentation.

That looked pretty good, and might help clean up some ugly edges.
