Reply to "Painting Experts: Masking for Painting?"

I like the Tamaya tapes the best, but sometimes I use blue painter's tape.  I look for a brand that isn't as "rough" in texture.  For sharp lines, I apply it to a piece of glass, then trim  the edge with a sharp blade (like PINGMAN suggests).  Then I burnish the edge, and spray using an air brush, NEVER a rattle can.  I can control the amount of paint much better with an air brush so I don't apply too much to have the paint bleed along the edge.  In the rare event a rattle can paint is a good match, I have been known to release ALL the pressure from the can, then CAREFULLY puncture the bottom to drain the paint into a small bottle for air brush use.
