stitchdup Posted Wednesday at 07:06 PM Posted Wednesday at 07:06 PM look for nail striping tape on amazon. its 1mm tape for doing pinstripes on nails and a pack of 32 rolls is less than 5 bucks. most are metallic but a bit of searching will find non metallics but they might cost extra. they can be used over or under paint and are almost as thin as bmf 1

That tape, and most of the dry transfer (rub-on) letters and numbers, were used mainly by architects and draftsmen, all of which have moved on to other means of doing their work. 1
RancheroSteve Posted Wednesday at 10:22 PM Posted Wednesday at 10:22 PM Chartpak graphic tape works well for me. Comes in a variety of widths. Make sure you get the crepe stuff if you have a curves you want to go around. Here it is on a 1/25 scale body, I don't see any reason why it wouldn't work on a larger scale. 1
sidcharles Posted Thursday at 12:14 AM Posted Thursday at 12:14 AM not really applicable here, but i am so i'll make the best of it..... every JC Whitney ad i have ever seen had a paint pin stripe tool for $2.98. it was a glass vial mounted with a wheel & guide on the business end. to read the advertisement, you could practically quit your day job and become Steve the Striper with this meager investment. "... make plenty of money, impress your friends, get girls . . . . " 1 1

Here's the name brand version by Beuglar - they still make 'em. A little more expensive now though. 2
