Title: liquid masking fluid
Post by: mook on December 14, 2009, 08:21:20 pm

Has anyone used liquid masking fluid, is it any good and did you have any problems using it?
Thanx   :P

I've used Humbrol Maskol in the past, and found it to be easy to apply and remove. It does a good job.

Yes, I often use it to mask porthole glasses and stuff like that when I'm spraying. It's good stuff   :-))

I found it useful over small areas not, for example, waterlines.

I think it's intended more for glazed areas, such as port holes. I think low tack tape is much better for straight lines, such as waterlines.
