OldTrucker Posted June 3, 2021 Posted June 3, 2021 What size plastistruct would be right for it. Not going vinyl on the replica of my old 69 Chevelle Malibu going two tone but it used the same trim.
Plowboy Posted June 4, 2021 Posted June 4, 2021 I use .020 rod. Once the glue is set, I'll sand it flat with 400 sandpaper.
NOBLNG Posted June 4, 2021 Posted June 4, 2021 I have used .030” half round and sanded it down to a half oval shape.

I use rod whenever possible as well because it's much easier to get it to go around curves, especially tight ones. After application, I sand it down to a flatter shape as well. The slight undercut after gluing also helps when it's time to foil.
