Happy new year? Well I don't feel to happy right now.

There have been problems getting Tamiya tape in Sweden for a while so I tried another brand. I read some reviews that said id was great and didn't lift paint.
I used this narrow tape in the colour demarcation and covered the rest of the white with a wide Tamiya type of tape. Well the picture talks by itself.
So now it's off to the town hoping to find paint and tape playing Bobby McFerrin - Don't Worry Be Happy.

I can imagine you are not very happy! That takes quit some time to fix, hopefully you can find the right tape and continue. Good luck!

ouch..but I don't think the tape is your main problem,although te Tamiya tape is low tack the problem is that you NEED to
sand your resin very well..At least that is my experience :?

Removing that tape must have been worse than pulling out hair from a slowly removed bandaid... Oh jez ow ow ow ow ouch ow ouch. Hope the patient gets better soon.
