I'm using base coat clear coat paint with a sealer underneath, I have a friend that has a body shop with his own mixing station. I bought some Scotch 233+ tape from him and it works great, good clean lines and it will bend to a point, really tight turns I'm using a 1/4" vinyl tape, I'm also using a Scotch Bright A very fine scuff pad to prep the surface between the tape. I have one color done and plan on the second color Friday.

Denny,
Thanks for the info. I don't have access to auto paint, will go with rattle can. What would be the best finish gloss, semi-gloss or flat in your opinion?

My sidewalls are still have their shine so I went with gloss, be sure to use a primer before the paint to seal off any leftover wax.
