Just have a couple of questions about airbrushing lettering on motorcycles. I have a job coming up which has a lot of lettering involved. One of my options is to tape the surface and cut out the lettering, this is clean as in no over spray but I’d be very worried about cutting too far through the tape I have been practicing this but it’s so hard to stay consistent and I’m sure this scratches will be noticed. Another problem I had with this is when I take the tape off there is an elevated edge. I have heard that if you don’t spray so close to the edges this won’t happen but if the lettering is very small this is near impossible especially if there are a number of colour layers.. my other option is to just cut out my letting on paper and spray some glue on the back of the stencil, let it dry enough that it’s just tacky, this way it will be stuck and I eliminate cutting. Another option would be to use these miniature magnets I have to keep the stencil stuck to the surface of the bike. Any advice is appreciated. Thanks
