Tom... basically those stencils are done on frisket paper...not sure you've ever used it ...but it's the same stuff... the sticky back is very light...so won't peel off your paint...one trick to make sure is to stick them on your arm first..then stick them to your tank... Painless got similar stencils from Palepainter ...used them on the MOOD..and MAXEEN :D

Only drawback is with this type of stencil.. and frisket paper... it's more or less one time use only....the best was silly putty and just cutting out your own stencil in tupperware plastic :haha:

I'm only using their stencils for the numbers and unit insignia the camo scheme I'm going to do much like I did on my Tiger. I has a plan and I KNOWS it'll work perfectly! :thumbup:

If you are careful ...you can still get some mileage on them... but the usual is that once or twice and they are dead as far as sticking goes ;)

I like them, take time to mask and build up the colour gradually start with a very light pass let dry and then another.
