Re: 57 Fleetside C4 build

I also try to remask the previous masking because it seems to always have a little dust on it that blows up onto the wet paint. another good reason to use painters masking paper over other stuff, like newspaper, as the raw paper tends to offgas paper fiber hairs. using the plastic works as well but be careful with removal is it tends to shed the oversprayed paint from the plastic as it is removed and that stuff sticks to the new paint job. sometimes I eemove the plastic while the paint is still tacky, and roll it as I go, so it sticks to the plastic and doesn't come off in chunks as the plastic bends when removing. I always do a perimeter of tape around the body and then stick the masking to that so it comes off easily and then the perimeter of tape comes off after that with no masking materials attached to it. thats just what works for me. more tape used but it's cheap enough compared to fixing a problem.
