black and gold boot stripe
#7
If you want to re-tape your boat, here is my easy way to do it. Remove the old tape with some mild heat and a window paint scraper with the tips of the razor blade rounded off so you don't gouge the gelcoat. Clean the surface with acetone to remove any wax. Buy some "Fine Line" tape in the width that you want the space between the two colors to be. Put the FL tape where you want it, continually eyeballing and adjusting it for straightness. This is the hardest part of the job. Next buy "3M Striping Tape", it comes in lots of colors and widths and stands up really well to the elements. Butt the 3M tape to the FL tape (this is the easy part) and then remove the FL tape. Comes out perfect every time. Capt. George
