                        Hi guys,
                        Would anyone be able to help me, I use an airbrush with acrylic paint. That is fine, but after I mask using Tamiya tape, some of the glue is left behind, making the paint job a right mess. Should I use enamels with tape, or is there any other way I can mask the model. Any ideas will be really handy.Smile [:)]

                        hey mate....
                        so u say that when u remove the masking tape, glue from the tape is left on the model?
                        if thats the case, just get a piece of masking tape and press down on the residue with the sticky side of the tape. thats should lift up any residue from the tape
