1972 Duster Build with my Daughter
Got really brave and yes the Graphic Express mask for the Twister hood do work well. Thanks to @John_Lemon for warning me they are tricky so I pull all the stops...
First trim the ladder so it is close to the mask vinyl so it is easier to center. Then run a "hinge" of tape so you can fold it back and remove the backing. Then care fully flip it back down and move from the middle out pressing it down. Peal the upper backing at a 45 degree angle and folded flat pulling away from the mask.
I then gave it a quick spray of clear to seal the edges so the black did not run under the mask vinyl. I mixed some SPI black base with the Motobase reducer because I was out of SPI. Barry gave me the green light to do this last week. Guess what.. The damn thing crazed again... There is something wrong with the Motobase reducer I got. Finally I battled it and got it down. I went to wipe up some adhesive and STUPIDLY picked up the Acetone and not the Wax and Grease Remover.... Total destroyed a corner on of the the ladders.... Time to walk away..... It can be fixed since I am not done with other parts nothing lost but an hours of time....
I did not get the clear on since I need to fix somethings but it made Kaelyn cry when she saw it (It was Comi-Con weekend for the girls).
