Ok I'm trying to paint a scheme and the frog tape sucks! I was wondering if anyone knew of a good tape to use

Thanks in advance

I have used the blue painters tape . It works well for me and will not take the underlying paint off the engine when it is pulled away.

The only thing with painter's tape... is you need to let any paint dry for 24 hours before masking... otherwise it will leave some sticky stuff on paint that shows up under certain conditions. However, after a good coat of weathering... it really isn't noticable. Just food for thought.
