cobraman Posted January 30, 2020 Author Share Posted January 30, 2020 I really messed this up. I am doing the red, white and blue color scheme and I had done the center section white. So today I carefully masked to get ready to apply the red. I sprayed the red and took the tape off to find a nice crisp border between the colors. I went back into the house when the shock hit me. These cars are painted red to white to blue . Oh no ! I masked the rear and sprayed it red ! No ! It was suppose to be the blue on the rear. Luckily I found a couple photos on the web of ones painted in the reverse. Not what I wanted but now I can live with my stupid error.
