Default Re: Paint seams when masking

dabears is right you can clear it then wet sand it with like 600 or higher then reclear it. How thick is the paint? you can lightly color sand it then clear it but it sounds like your paint might be to thin to do that. I saw a vid on youtube one time of a guy building an italeri pete 378 he put his decals on then cleared it then sanded over the decal to feather the edges and recleared it. It looked great so that's what I started doing. When you sand it you will see the dark edge of clear showing up at your color breaks it you can continue to sand till feathered or clear again and sand until the dark edge quits showing up at breaks. Sounds hard but its really not just take your time and it will you will be fine. Just remember you can always sand it down and start over...LOL hope it helps...Koolaid
