Question Masking
Has anyone ever done a "How To" on masking the small parts? All I have found is masking for Flaming and using the Tamiya 40mm tape.

I am battling to mask the parts. Can anyone show me a short how to on the more "difficult to get around" parts.

Had the very same problem with masking..

http://www.automotiveforums.com/vbul...hlight=masking

Have a read, if this doesn't help then you'll have to read some more examples.. It's hard, but I worked it out in the end. Read 360spider's reply.. His advice was sound..

Take a read of my progress thread of this model -

http://www.automotiveforums.com/vbul...d.php?t=424897

First page shows how I masked the underchassis up.. It was real tricky but it can be done.

Re: Masking
