There are basically 3 ways to apply the paint stripe; A)Freehand B)Using the tool with the wheel that follows the body line C)Use the masking tape that has the pull-out sections for the paint The factory stripe was a long way from perfect in width. It was usually good and straight, but the curves varied considerably. Last edited by DaveRS23; 12/22/16 12:52 PM. Master, again and still

The stripe is approx .200 wide, 3/16" pinstripe tape (.186) would suffice if you don't want to paint it on as original I have the same factory prints as posted, they might be clearer though Mike
