Thanks pal, its a technique that we use where we fold the tape back on its self by about 3mm so the edge can't stick, when you taint against it it blows up and the paint edge feathers out, all it needs is a light machine polish and it completely vanishesThat is a great job! From a novice and maybe a stupid question - how did you avoid creating a seam at the top masked area?
Wish I could pop over and join you guys but there's no hope tomorrow. Got to get the dog cart running or I'll be mince meat!Fitting this lot tomorrow at the Midlands Z shed with the gang @t-tony @Antm72 @Bozzy

Complete amateur input here. But this photo gives you some idea of the effect as it's how I replicated the original look on my front panel.Thanks pal, its a technique that we use where we fold the tape back on its self by about 3mm so the edge can't stick, when you taint against it it blows up and the paint edge feathers out, all it needs is a light machine polish and it completely vanishes

You really don't need to spend a fortune to get a decent finish mate.I am genuinely in awe of your paint job and skills @Sean d .
When my 2.2 project is finished I'm taking your advice and will start experimenting with a proper gun.
The advice I got from my local trade paint supplies was to get a £60 low pressure gun. Apparently it's what the mobile guys and small body shops use. Realistically that's the level I need to aim for, no point trying to replicate what you do.
