paint mask question

Recommended Posts

I've recently acquired a camouflage paint mask set for the 1/48 Tamiya Meteor F.1 from LF Models.  It will be my first experience with painting masks.  I have used self-adhesive canopy masks from Chris Loney of EZ Masks before with good results.  One tip that Chris suggests is to wet the canopy (or the individual vinyl piece) in some soapy water.   That allows one to arrange the mask into position.    My question is will the same technique work with these LF painting masks as well?   Like the EZ Masks, they are self-adhesive and I'm wondering how much "wiggle room" one might have when applying these to the painted surface.   I'm hesitant to dip one of the LF pieces into soapy water without knowing if that will botch it up or allow for easier placement.   I could sure use some advice before proceeding further.  Thanks so much for any help!  Cheers, Gary. 🍺
