Liquid Masking Challenge!

Apparently there is a difference between liquid mask and liquid frisket. I bought the frisket and found after multiple tries it is way too thin and snags even with a sharp blade.
So I found a job shop that was open and picked up a small bottle of liquid masking. I applied some to a practice lug and will check it in the morning.
Being so busy at the bike shop, it has been crazy!!!, My wife and I are taking off for a 4 day cycling trip on the GAP!

Yeah, you can't really cut frisket. It's so thin that you paint or pen it on where you want it. For "cuttable" mask I've been using Hobbico Master Mask for ages. Cheap, works, available at pretty much any hobby shop in existence.
