    I'm building a rally car and tape and photo etch buckles have come with the kit, but the tape (seat belt material) is difficult to get through the photo-etch buckles. I've tried to cut a pointed end on the tape but it's still to wide to get through the buckle! I've had this problem many times before, even to print my own seat belt decals. What am I doing wrong?

    The new one will be painted grey runny gloss finish 'attempted renovation'! Plus my first attempt with woody decals and two alloy tubes, slide up & down action instead of fixed 'open or closed'.

    So, just won on ebay UK, We have a programme on TV called Shed and Buried, where they look for old cars, trucks, tractors, motorcycles and auto memorabilia, to buy, restore and sell on. This era of motorcycle is the sort of thing they find, get started, carefully restore, not to damage it's patina, but to safely be able to ride on the road for pleasure!

    Update! a few 1960 decals! As they were very old decals I rattle can sprayed them Clear Gloss, then cut them out very carefully before dipping them in very warm water!
