Brendan Posted August 22, 2009 Share Posted August 22, 2009 Instead of using masking tape, why not try athletic tape. It's a cloth material and it can take acrylic paint very well. It also comes in all different colors. Hockey shops would carry it; also most sporting goods places. I use it for making seat belts. Hope this helps.

Guest Posted September 24, 2009 Share Posted September 24, 2009 Maybe use a old dryer softener sheet painted the color you need? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
