I often use it , stuck on top of brass sheet, to cut proper straight edges. As a mask, though, I had a few disappointing experiences, with it lifting up as soon as I hit it with airbrushed paint (Tamiya, BTW). It happened to me a while back and I've never tried it again ever since, but I guess a thin gloss coat brushed along the edges should short the issue. HTH BTW, temperature dropped over here too, going below zero overnight, but luckily no snow Ciao 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
