Hello All:
The tank got a bath.
Everything was going just fine until I got to the masking part
of the
model. The olive drab coat covered nicely. Then I masked off the
stripes with masking tape. OK so far. Then I painted over the olive
coat with the U.S. Green. After waiting for it to dry, I peeled away
the tape...
DISASTER! I didn't pull off a piece of tape without striping
off some
of the paint--primer and all--from the model. Not only that, but in
most cases the paint soaked through tape
What did I do wrong?
