Once I finish the chassis on my Philco 80 i need to turn my attention to the cabinet. Since I am not able to use any spraying equipment I am going with Howards but what do I use for masking? I tried an area of the middle section with some Frog Tape and after only about 2 minutes I pulled it off and noticed some of the old finish came off with the tape.
