| That looks badass. But please school me. I see a thin blue tape line and thats it. How is there no mess. I would have accidentally painted half the jeep. That is whats keeping me from any painting. Were you inside your garage when you painted? |

| That is just the fine line tape, I used that first because it is made to bend easily for round edges etc., then I used masking tape and newspaper to mask the rest of the area, but did not get any pictures of that. |
