Re: Stus-List vinyl pinstripe?
I found that 9 mm (3/8") OROFOL tape fit quite well. Quite a selection of colors if you want to venture outside the original gold. They may also be noted as OROCAL as the 2 companies merged a few years back. We used 9 mm purple 2 years ago and no problems so far. One suggestion: stretch long sections of 3M outdoor masking tape along an edge of the cove...either top or bottom as a guide. Match the pin stripe to the masking tape edge to avoid any wave or flutter that will appear if you apply free handed.

Yep. Use 5/8 inch 3M Scotchcal Striping Tape. I used 3M 73403 5/8 inch gold metallic on Touche' after re-painting in 2011. Still looks great. You can see it here: https://drive.google.com/open?id=0B_sb5TfIENvsckJWcWNldEFydjg You can usually find it online or at an auto paint supply store. Dennis C.

Re: Stus-List vinyl pinstripe?
Great solution, Tom. I applied the blue stripe below the silver half above that was in good shape.

Re: Stus-List vinyl pinstripe?
Very effective choice. Automotive is fine. 3M makes vinyl material for sign shops. It is supposed to have a 12 year warranty. If it lasts half that I still say it was a reasonable value.

Stus-List vinyl pinstripe?
The stripe along the upper part of the hull on my 1974 30’ MKI has disappeared over time . I am considering replacing it with a high-quality vinyl pinstripe which will fit in the recessed portions of the former stripe location. Has anyone tried this and any suggestions? Thanks.
