Also, is there much difference between masking products. Currently I'm putting on two good coats of Parma fasmask with a touch up gun which seems okay. Is there a better alternative?

Here's some recent stuff...

Eyup Julian, some nice looking tourers you've done here fella!!

As mentioned before there are no specialist blades for cutting in curves tbh, and I do all my cutting out freehand.. Just keep practising and over time it'll come around.

For the liquid mask I've used Fasmask for years, just gone to Jon Miller's RCS mask and find it very easy to work with

As for any other materials I've used masking & lining tapes, but since I went over to LM I've nt looked back
