Semroc (Centuri) Taurus Build, Part 11, Masking The Lower Fins

The lower half of the fins are masked to leave them white.
Enlarge the picture to see the two layers of tape - the knife blade is sitting on the brown masking tape, the Scotch tape is below that.

This is after the flat black was sprayed and the tape is ready to be lifted.

I did have a little bit of bleed under the tape.
The top picture is the before,


This is after a little "push up" against the black paint to clean up the line. I don't scrape the paint off, it is pushed back while it is still a bit sticky.

Here's the finished low end mask.

Notice there is a thin strip of brown tape keeping the paint off the gluing edge of the pylon standoff.
