I could hand paint a racing stripe black Is it doable? yes, it's a trick that I call "Decal Reincertion" look in the "On The Work Bench" area for a Custom General Lee Model that was posted by me, look back around the last page in that thread. You'll see what I did to a faded rebel flag decal that I had and how I turn the color issue around on that build. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

diymirage Posted August 26, 2010 Share Posted August 26, 2010 if you just want a straight forward racing stripe i would suggest hand painting it there are some great masking tapes out there but i think one of the best would be the tamiya brand (available at most hobby shop) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Perhaps painting the tamiya tape could be n option , or painting the actually decal, theres an extra racing stripe justto mess around on. thanks for the advice Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
