A good tip when painting stripes is mask them up and paint a light coat of the base colour so it seals up the edges of the tape and if any does get under it's not noticable. Then paint the next colour over that.

I would have done the 2 outside stripes as adhesive pin-striping...if not even the centre if it was wide enough.
Still, we're all different eh?
cheers, Mark.
I used adhesive pinstriping on my last build Mark, but I wanted to try something different. But you're right - it would have definitely been a better result!Originally Posted by king casey

The worst thing is that I know that, Robbo! Why the hell I didn't do it is anyone's guess!
