Masking
General about masking
To simplify masking separate carriers for masking paper and masking tape should be used.
Use lint-free masking paper with good strength and of sufficient quality to prevent solvent from penetrating.
Use 19 and 39 mm wide elastic masking tape. The tape should withstand temperatures of at least 80°C (176°F) and should not leave adhesive residue
when baked.
Mask rationally. Do not bandage protruding components, such as door handles and similar, but lay the tape along the length of the components.
Note! Always press the tape tight to prevent paint running underneath.
The extent of masking necessary depends on whether a total painting, partial painting or a spot repair is to be carried out. If partially painting the right
front fender the whole car should be masked in order to avoid spray and paint fog on the surrounding paint. For spot painting it is often sufficient to fully
mask off the repair area.
