great tribal. :cool: if you use a hair dryer on your mask before painting. it will heat the adhesive up and you can smooth it down for a tighter sealing mask. obviously you need to be careful with the dryer as to not melt the tape or lexan. love to details :D

I did use a hair dryer actually. Only thing is I did it in between coats of paint to speed drying time <_< next time I will definitely try it on the mask ahead of painting also. Makes sense. Sucks I didnt think of it before. Oh well first body but definitely not the last.
