PAINTING STEPS
Start by trimming flash and prepping body in
laquer thinner (1 min.) or soap and water.
Apply hood mask template and spray with flat black paint.
Apply side mask template.
Start at rear side marker, then align sides.
Press ends of strip on good to body for contour at wheel wells.
Shoot with flat black paint. Remove template.
Let the black paint on hood dry thoroughly before
applying silver paint mask template. The square in the center
aligns the hood scoop and lets template lie flat.
I "finger" the back of the template somewhat to
lessen the tack of the template so it doesn't pull
any of the flat black hood paint off the car body
when the silver template is removed.
Cover hood scoop square with rectangle piece.
"Finger" the back to lessen tack.
Be sure wipers and hood pins are aligned,
then shoot silver paint. Light coverage works well.
Remove template
Paint rear bumper tail lights spraying with flat red paint.
The finished product.
Group of bodies just finished painting. I found the templates
will work easily 3 times if kept in good condition.
