GOTCHA: Here's the upper wrap. The wrap wasn't long enough to meet at the ends.
I didn't want to leave that white gap.
FIX: It was filled with a strip of my "go-to" vinyl, Contact Paper Blackboard Covering.
The vinyl strip isn't a full gloss, but it's better than the white band. The flat surface of the Contact Paper fill strip was "shined up" with some Future floor finish later on.
As I understand it,
TRIVIA: The High Q originally a two stager. The booster (Stage "1') was dropped before it went into production.
The "2" on the fin is left from the two stage version.
Two strips of masking tape helped with the positioning of the "2".
I wanted to be sure it was square and centered.
The tape was set down while the sticker was cut and still on the backing. Set the tape right at the sticker border edge.
With the tape in place, then peel off the backing and set to the edges of the sticker against the positioning tape. Remove the positioning tape.
There are three Quest logos that are spaced evenly around the tube.
I set mine down the fin line and directly above the masked lines down the body. Note the center pencil line on the tape.
Another strip of tape let me line up the left side of the sticker.
