Need help with tape masking before painting!


Recommended Posts

Need some help guys, what kind of tape is everyone using to mask off sections of their helmets before painting? I got some "3M Safe release with Edge lock" and it sucks!! I have read some people use frog tape but both have left me with bleed under when painting the black trim around the forehead section. Any help would be greatly appreciated as I am using rattle cans for painting ( don't have a airbrush set yet).

We use blue tape here which I believe is the same as the frog tape at your end. There is a good tip for bleed through here http://www.whitearmor.net/forum/topic/23204-tip-on-tube-stripe-painting-with-no-bleed-through/, pictures missing but will get the idea
