Hi,

Well that depends what type of tape you are using from the beginning.

For one the green high temp tape will not hold up too good in the sand blaster and it is kinda expensive.

Secondly, most people here use duct tape for masking when sand blasting. Its cheap and it holds up well. And remember duct tape will melt in the oven.

So, duct tape = blasting, green tape = curing/baking.

Off thread but same topic

Valve cover one color, TWO (2) Leters different color, Do Which One First? the Letters/Larger Area first? or the Lighter/Darker Color?
