    Well, some good news. I asked a question some time ago regarding masking the rosewood binding. Somebody suggested polishing it so any bleed through would be easy to remove.

    I used my set of micro mesh pads for the first time, going through all the grits to 12000, and it looks pretty polished, hey? It's hard to believe that rosewood is just raw polished timber!

    If you want to mask something thin like that, and be safe in the knowledge that you won't get anything on it.
    Just go to your local art supply store and get some watercolour artist's, paint on latex mask.
    As the name implies, you paint it on, do what you have to do, the when you want to remove it just rub it off with your finger
