Bob,
Tamiya!
Although I will qualify that a bit...
I use all the widths from 1 to 18mm. Personally, I am nervous about using the 40mm though. It has a slightly different look to it and it is MUCH stickier. I learned that the hard way on the
Airfix 1:48 Tiger Moth - I had wrapped it around the struts that join the two wings together and, when I went to take the tape off, I snapped both struts! Easy fixed, but an absolute nuisance.
I will also sing the praises of the
Tamiya tape with plastic sheeting. This is
Tamiya tape stuck on to semi-opaque plastic film that extends either 150mm from the tape (Item No. 87203**600) or 550mm from the tape (Item No. 87164**640). The brilliant thing with these is that you cover large areas without getting tape tack everywhere, yet can still see what's going on underneath.
Alternatively, use the tapes from the first para above and cut up carrier bags - it's cheaper
(just cant see what's underneath then
)
Regards,
John
