Gun straps and tie downs

QUOTE: but i have heard of masking tape being used.

I'm the guy that uses Tamiya 3mm tape. I cut it thin, glue it with CA and paint it. I'll try to get pics up sometime.

I also use medical tape, first because it has a nice texture and second because it sticks to the model nicely without glue.

Also Post it Notes work well for the same reasons.

Thanks for the help

Hey Awasoda,
I haven't really used the method that you mentioned but you may want to try out surgical tape(3M tape).
They have either poris or non poris. I have used it many times and the results are great. They come in a variety of sizes from thin width to wide band. You get a better look w/ tape I feel as well as it conforms better to the surface.
You can purchase this type of tape at any hospital/medical store.
Flaps up, Mike

I use computer paper with plastic tube glue.

I've never tried it, but i have heard of masking tape being used.

That is exactly how I do it. Enjoy the red too! Try an Aussie bottle, we make great reds.

I haven't used foil in quite a while, but when I did I worked as flat as I could get it then I'd use a metal rule as a straight edge and line it up at the width I wanted then cut with a hobby knife. Length was figured out by test fitting and pruning as necessary.
