panel line anf how much paint
well i made a belly tank for my p-47 out of foam and then fiberglassed it. I put lines on it to test my skills before I do this to my plane.
The question how many light coats do you use and how do you prevent the glue from the chat tape form sticking?
also if i can get some pics on here do my lines look as if i put to mucj paint on?

RE: panel line anf how much paint
chines I paint over chart tape with air brush three or four times, basically enough to build a ridge. Wait until the paint becomes tacky the start to pull the tape off. Don't use primer since primer drys fast and tape will be hard to remove. I never had to do it but to remove the residual glue left from the tape you can use an old tooth brush and MEK.
