Re: Paint striping with tape
ck with a local paint suppy (auto) house in your area. Pinstripe tape (decal) IS available in diff widths/colors. Put a pin stripe on my taurus years ago, changed the look drastically, really dressed it up.

Re: Paint striping with tape
I used 3M tape for my 30 Coupe. Buckskin tape came very close to the Tacome Creme. It can be a little difficult to make a real small radius like just behind the rear fender on a couple but works well. It has been on there 3 years now with not problems.

Re: Paint striping with tape
I use pinstripe tape all the time on late models, works good when done properly.
Use 3M only. |

Re: Paint striping with tape
I like Finesse Pinstriping Tape.
It's prespaced with a clear a strip over top. You apply it, pull off the clear strip, paint the lines with One Shot lettering enamel, then pull off the pre-spaced masks. Auto body supply store should have it. Comes in many widths/spacing variations. |

I had my 29 standard coupe pin stripped with tape for less than $40.00 at a local body shop. Looks great! John Wing Houston Texas |
