DaveNJ Posted April 7, 2007 Report Share Posted April 7, 2007 (edited) I have some pinstriping tape on my project guitar to give a faux binding. I've sprayed some black nitro gloss (stewmac aerosol) up to the tape and I was wondering when it will be safe to peel off the tape? I sprayed my last coat at 7:30pm this evening... Thanks, Dave Edited April 7, 2007 by DaveNJ Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
low end fuzz Posted April 7, 2007 Report Share Posted April 7, 2007 i would say 5 mins. after your completly done spraying; if its still wet just dont hit the area that was sprayed; paint wont migrate to another part of an object unless it drips there, and if that happens your in need of practice; any time you paint or do anything with something that dries you are unfamilliar with, put some on scrap in the same method and check that for tackiness, when nothing comes off to your finger your good to go Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
iskim86 Posted April 7, 2007 Report Share Posted April 7, 2007 too late and it'll lift some paint up and give rough edges Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
DaveNJ Posted April 7, 2007 Author Report Share Posted April 7, 2007 (edited) Well, I waited too long so i scored around the vinyl tape and it came off pretty well. There were a few spots where it came out uneven but I just touched those up with some black nitro on a toothpick. Thanks for the help all, now I know for the next guitar...
