260 Space Booster Build Part 19 Black Trim


Long strips of the Black Chalkboard Contact Paper were cut .45" wide.
All the black stripes on the model will be this width except for the .25" black nozzle stripe.
You can see what the roll looks like HERE



The first strip layed down was on the BT-50, right above the adapter.

One great thing about this model and the Contact paper strips, you can sharpen up any rough edges.
The top of the balsa adapter could be a little rough. This black tape edge can help cover that uneven edge and make a strong defined line.




The strips were cut long for a reason.
Here I've gone over the top of the BT-60 tube. I can visually center the strip and go down the other side knowing the two strips are directly opposite each other. They'll be trimmed off later.
