Need to mask off the car

Post by THAWA »

I need to mask off everything but the trim that goes around the car. Whats the best way to go about this? Regular masking tape or is there some other special tape that wont peel the paint? Also are there any precautions i should take?

I'm on First and First. How can the same street intersect with itself? I must be at the nexus of the universe.

It would be best to remove all the trim. Cause when you paint it in time its gonna start to peel from the edge of the trim and make you :evil:, and the edges are gonna catch dirt and make the edges realy stand out . As for tape blue or green stuff is good.
