Pin Stripe for Smoke Grey Traveller

Post by Vernon »

Where can I buy blue Pin Stripe tape for the bonnet and doors of my Smoke Grey Traveller? I have tried Halfords but they just have "go faster" custom stripes.

If it's the self adhesive type try Ebay. There's also a firm that do a masking tape that allows you to hand paint your own line using celly paint, The result is v. good.

I have been trying to get some masking tape, to paint a pin stripe, but have not been able to. Anyone know where to get it? Halfords told me it hasn't been in stock for years!

look for lining tape, most model shops will do it. It is leak proof, masking tape sometimes leaks. Mask it up and hand paint, you'll be pleased with the results.
