Vanman Posted November 25, 2013 Share Posted November 25, 2013 Had my 91 Toy restored and they had to paint the vinyl side skirts. One thing is the skirts are actually 3 parts, the center part being the rear wheel extension, so where the parts meet they flex even when just driving and the paint doesn't like that, cracking. I will have to caulk over that and I am not good at that. Is there a kind of liquid calk so I could just start it at the top and let gravity do the work? I don't think I need much coverage, just enough to hold the paint from cracking more. TIA john Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
WME Posted November 25, 2013 Share Posted November 25, 2013 Get some blue painters tape. Start with the 1/4 or 1/2" wide stuff and layout the edges of where you want to caulk. Then use the 1" stuff to prevent boo boos. Smooth on the caulk and pull off the tape for a neat edge. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Vanman Posted November 28, 2013 Author Share Posted November 28, 2013 Well, the first time I used the painters tape I waited till the paint dried, boy does that not work But pulling at an angle sounds like a great idea. I was hoping for some kinda liquid that would dry flexible, yeah I'm a little lazy john Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
