Let's say I went inside-out with the color order. Painting the black first and then the white. Outer mask would be applied the same as before like so...BlackSheep214 wrote: ↑Mon Sep 18, 2023 7:11 pm I'm lost. I understand the outer template for the white on the cross. How is it possible the overspray excess white disappeared after its all done? Did you mask the outer borders on the white cross before spraying the white as seen in 2nd photo? Am I missing something I don't see or understand?
But the black is sprayed first. When the inner mask components are applied, I would leave the inner cross shape in place and remove the four "elbow" pieces, which need to be white. After the white is sprayed and the masks removed, there is a chance that little slivers of black would show up along outside edges of the white "elbows" because the white didn't complete cover the previous black. Here's an example of a similar cross in which I sprayed the black first...
Do you see the black edges along the bottom of the lower white areas? If you paint the outer colors first, you prevent this type of mishap.
