I finally got around to painting my horse sign. Turned out better than I thought it would. Now all I need to do is get it mounted on the front of my shop.

I used tape and a plastic masking material for the white. I projected the lines on to the masking material, traced the lines and cut them out and sprayed it white.

I am in the process of making the same sign. Hope mine looks nearly as good as yours. What was the plastic masking material you used. Have been wondering how to accomplish the clean white lines.
Thanx - Dud

Its a self adhesive masking film. I bought mine at a auto body supply shop but they said it should be available at hobby stores also.
