It is painted with Acrilic enamel, i have some paint left (enough to do the cab corner, but not the entire back of cab).
Could anyone help me with the specifics (i.e. how to get rid of the tape line is the main thing)
Thanks a lot

Than tape about 6'-8" away from the furtherst edge of the area to be painted. Tape the masking paper down on top of the tape.
Now take the masking paper fold it towards the to be painted area. now fold it back with a rounded edge. Covering about 1/4" over the repaint area.
Now tape the end of the fold down onto the masking paper.
spray straight dont try spray under the paper.
Basically what is going to happen is you get over sprayunder the paper but none or a very little amount of a hard line.

P.S. NEVER EVER EVER use STP fuel injector and carborator cleaner (when mixed with gas it makes a great paint stripper :mad: )
