Default Window Mask Template

ayup paint fans,

Been passed a few shells to paint, and the chap didn't supply the window masks that will have come with the shells.

Is there anywhere I can download printable 1/1 versions from the web? The I can print em out and go from there.

Yes, I know I could cut them freehand in liquid mask, that's my plan B.

Shells are all Durango.... 210, 410 Kuhler and 410 original.

Ta

Andy.

If you get a vector file of the masks at 1:1 scale, I can print / cut them out for you on my plotter (in some nice mask vinyl) - will be much tidier than doing them by hand

Or - plan C - measure the windows up and draw your own designs up - as long as you send me an eps file (illustrator ideally) i'll print / cut a sheet off for you

Andy.

Andy - I thought you worked with those computer thingy - ma - bobs !!!!!

Eps = encapsulated postscript (I think)...

A dxf file would do, or a Corel draw, or a freehand file.
Ideally an adobe illustrator file, basically a vector file - line drawing

Spend more time lining up a windows mask than it takes to cut one freehand!

You were right on the EPS file, an SVG ( Scaleable vector graphic ) will work too or if it's been generated in a vector program a PDF will work.
