Question about making clear doped linen rib tapes

(1/2) > >>

Tim Mixon:
I need to make 1/72 clear doped linen rib tapes. I know of no commercial product available.  Does anyone have experience in spraying paint over either clear or white decal sheet then cutting the ribs in strips?  How do you prevent the paint from chipping?
Thank you,
Tim

Aviattic Decals ?

Aviattic Decals ?

Rob Hart:
I think that it would be much easier to mask and paint them. Having said that, I must disclose that I consider waterslide decals to be second only to money as a source of evil.

Tim Mixon:
That’s a good idea. I’ve never used Aviattic decals. Are the white based decals still translucent?  I don’t want the underlying lozenge to show through.
