Tommy124 Posted January 5, 2022 Share Posted January 5, 2022 There's another way to how masking tape can be used in the interior. You can pre-paint a piece of masking tape in the desired color or wood pattern. Then cut it to size and apply it. Done!

I did that to make seat belts but never thought beyond that. 💩. Nice Pontiac, Tommy.. Can't understand why they stopped making them. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

This WIP sat for years in the box, because I was daunted by the multiple colors on the seats. If I recall correctly, there were 7 colors for the interior. I prefer regular masking tape, you can draw with a pencil on it. It cuts easily with a new #11 blade. When I work it down into the crevasse of the cushions, use a toothpick. Sometimes I use Scotch tape, if there are round shapes to go around. I so don't like brush painting! But I have to for touchup. Very nice work! The masking job could've been more difficult, though... 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

[...] Meh, paint the white and use a decal, but none exist for that pattern. Looks like a Porsche 928. I know this isn't a good example for the topic, but the decal does add another "color".

rightrudder Posted January 16, 2022 Share Posted January 16, 2022 It's what Porsche called Pasha...used on various models including both 911 and 928 at certain times. I think it's cool because it's kinda "checkerboard on acid." 1 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
