Any idea of a supplier 1or2 mm coloured self adhesive stripes please.
Halfords etc only do 3mm upwards and I think that will look to heavy

I dint know a supplier but what I tend todo is tick tape to the cutting board.  Paint it and then slice it to size with a straight edge and scalpel.  Peal the strips off the board and there you have it...  Aero modelling seat belts but it's the sae principle...

I'm sure I've got some masking tape which is less than three mil. I think it might tamiya.

Jammydog does 1.5mm coloured stripes: http://www.jammydog.com/ They also do some very fine masking tape too.

Hope this helps.

Plainline.

A company called "Trimline" supplies self adhesive tape in various widths (starting at 0.5 mm ). A lot of modellers use it to line loco's in larger scales.
Hope this helps!
