Having just taken over ownership of A335 BWV I shall probably have loads of questions about Mk. 1 Maestro VPs. I bet you can't wait ;)

The first thing that's bugging me, believe me, there's a longish list, is the way that the previous owner has covered up tiny stone chips with yards of what seems like zircon-blue coloured tape. Well, not quite yards but much more than was required. What's really bugging me about this is that the tape isn't quite Zircon Blue. Does anyone know if this is a recognised product and more importantly how I can remove it without damaging the surrounding paint? I've tried using my fingernail but the tape is very brittle and only comes off in miniscule bits.

PS I'll be posting some pictures for you to enjoy v. soon!

Holts used to sell cover up tape in near enough the same colour for car's, never bought it but it sounds the same as what you have. They stopped selling this about 6-7 years ago at least.

Bottom of the doors on SRY are covered in like a bubbly tape stuff. Looks horrific. :eek: :horror: :giveup:
