Masking off for the 2 tone, I see you're using blue tape (probably low stick) to cover the majority of the base paint.

BUT what is that yellow tape you use at the actual edge of color separation?

Ok yes the blue tape is 3m tape i dont use that any more as it can still mar paint so I use maksing film like a body shop would to cover a car to do a fender respray. the Yellow is the best fine line out there way better than and 3m I have used of the last 15 years it is tamiya tape for painting bodys..

Great how to Paul! what kind of primer do you use? I used that same red paint and it the primer and the black paint I used all 3 pealed. is there something you do to the body after you fill and sand it to prep it for paint?

Thanks
