Estes Saturn V #1969 Build, Part 42, Interstage Mask

Here's the start of the interstage wrap mask.

First, use smaller pieces of tape over the tunnels and raised details. Be sure the inside corners are tucked in and the edges sealed.







After the tunnel masks, block off all the vertical white area bands.

Notice the masking tape overlaps about 1/16" of the Sharpie outlines.




Here's the mask reveal before touch-ups.
On the right (viewed from below) you can see why sign painters say the hardest surface to letter on is corrugation. Trying to keep lettering and lines straight through corrugations is tough.
