Quebectrooper Posted May 4, 2010 Report Share Posted May 4, 2010 Is it better to stick a black stripe around the ears or to hand paint it ? I'm nervous and my hand shakes... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
firebladejedi[TK] Posted May 4, 2010 Report Share Posted May 4, 2010 I do this detailing with a pen but I have seen others use black detailing tape around the ear. Do whichever you are comfortable with. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Shooter Posted May 4, 2010 Report Share Posted May 4, 2010 I used black automotive pinstriping tape and think it works great. You can grab it at Canadian Tire for around $4. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Does anyone know if you can get black enamel pens in the UK? Joe Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

bluehickey Posted May 9, 2010 Report Share Posted May 9, 2010 You could always create a mask using regular tape around the ears leaving only the area exposed that you want to paint. Once the paint is dry, remove the tape to have a crisp line. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Plastic Fury[TK] Posted May 10, 2010 Report Share Posted May 10, 2010 I used black automotive pinstriping tape and think it works great. You can grab it at Canadian Tire for around $4. Exactly the same thing I do, flexible for going around the corners and looks awesome when finished. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
