What is the best way to mask a car nose

[JerseeJerry55]

Mornin' all

Quick question. I've started working on my Kyle Petty #42 Peak Grand Prix. The nose is part blue. My question is what is the best way to tape it off. Full Tamiya masking tape or a blend of the Tamiya and another tape (3M perhaps)? Stroker Ace has done this car before so perhaps he can shed some light? Thanks

What I do is tape the break with Tamiya masking tape and then take some 3M blue 1 inch tape and some kitchen cling wrap. I tear off about a foot of the Cling wrap, lay the edge on the counter top and take the blue tape and tape the edge, leaving about half the width of the tape. I tape that to the Tamiya tape and wrap the cling around the nose, taking time to make sure nothing is exposed. Then I spray. Keeps the chances of paint being pulled by the tape to a minimum.

Thank's for the tip on using cling wrap

Not bad for my 1st attempt.
