Just finished my first attempt using cling wrap. The masking did not adhere well to the primed areas (primed with MM acryl flat). Also had some problems with the edges blowing loose with the a/b. It worked well in the areas that it stuck to, and I'll need to do some minor touch ups where it didn't. I'll use it again.

actually i don't plan on using it for spray painting at all instead using it to mask stuff for hand brushing thanks for the offer though!

my m0m uses them and they look like they will get blown off the model once the jet of air touches it, unless you really stretch it out and wrap it around several times to get it to "cling"
I wouldn'r recommend it.
I could test it for you on my M36 that I'm correcting right now, but if something horrible happens during the process, you will have to buy me a new kit! Big Smile [:D] just kidding...

if you mean press and seal I use it quite often for masking large areas. Works rather well!
