Great work and writeup! Question though Carlos, some edges you chose not to tape and some you did. Any particular reason why?

Glad you enjoyed it Denzil, as for the taping well it comes down to personal preference to be honest that and the pad you use, the pads I used on this vehicle were the 3M pads and they are quite soft so depending on the angle the edge were in I just imagined the rotary close them and desided to tape or not to tape. Some edges called for tape others I felt confortable enough bringing the edge of the 3M pads to it and didn't tape them...hope that makes sense.

Oh good glad all that rambling made sense

As for the green tape, I'm enjoying it, it works very well for me and it saves me from dealing with the glue residue left over
