  • Custom Painter Help??

    <font color="aqua">Does anyone know what that adhesive paper is called that is basically a large sheet of masking tape? It's used for free hand stenciling with an exacto knife when airbrushing or lettering. I'm sure someone has seen this stuff used on American Chopper? Thanks in advance!

      <font color="aqua">Thanks Eric [img]/images/graemlins/toast.gif[/img], unfortunately all I'm finding is the translucent stuff, I'd like to find the "white" type paper that you can draw on. </font>

        I've only seen the clear stuff as well. The stuff I had was quite difficult to work with; the blade had a hard time cutting through it becauseit was kinda stretchy and rubber-y, not paper-y.

        If ya know what I mean.

          <font color="aqua">EXACTLY! The white stuff is like a giant sheet of masking tape that can be cut nicely and cleanly. I'll keep looking ... [img]/images/graemlins/tongue.gif[/img] </font>

            What about the transfer tape used on vinyl graphics like sign shops use? Have you asked Doug about where you can find it? I found some on ebay quite some time ago, but it was only sold in very large rolls, so I couldn't justify buying a roll for the small amount that I was going to use. Also try asking around at auto body shops.

            Good luck! [img]/images/graemlins/toast.gif[/img]
