Default Re: Z28 Stripes - 69

Got my 10 10 Z painted. Getting ready to stripe it... I think.

Always thought the space between the large stripe and the small stripe was 1/4 inch. Also thought the outer stripe was 1/4.

Looked at my old notes from before I sanded off the rear deck lid and my notes say both the space and the outer stripe were 9/32.

Looked at my original never painted cowl vent panel (pics posted on page one) and it looks like the space is 9/32.
The outer stripe is closer to 5/16.

I placed a piece of 1/4 inch tape in the space, and it clearly does not cover completely. Even more gaps on the outer stripe.

Here is my problem: I don't think anyone sells 9/32 fine line tape. What are you guys laying out stripes with?

Thanks for any help.

Just for fun attached a pic of my wife's reflection in the hood. Spent a lot of time getting this thing really straight in preparation for the black paint. That reflection is in uncut unpolished black lacquer. Should shine up pretty nicely.
