I’ve painted a couple bodies ranging from 1/10 buggies to short course to 1/8 GT. I’m in need of tips to do the outlines/trim lines/boarders around windows and other graphics on factory team style paint jobs. The lines are 2-3mm.

Currently, I liquid mask then draw the design and outline with Tamiya pinstripe tape on the liquid mask. I cut on both sides of the pinstripe to get the outlines.

Second question is on making the paint last a little longer. Should I use flex seal or bedliner?
