Technical back taping door jams

Going to repaint my C2 Vette, black again, pretty soon. Don't need to do the door jams. Any special procedures or products to use, other than just stuffing tape in there?

 

3 M make a soft sponge type rope for just that purpose # 06297

 

Thanks, I was thinking about something like that. Probably about 10 bucks a foot..

 

Not quite, but you have to buy like 100 feet? at a time. It does work great though...

 

@Lloyd's paint & glass gets it all the time so wait till he checks in and he can give you a price and tell you where he gets it.

 

Check what your hardware man sells to insulate water pipe. Many sizes reasonable

 

The old school way was to take 3/4" masking tape, fold about 1/6" on itself, (sticky side to sticky side). And tape off the area with that folded edge toward where you are spraying. It will not leave a hard edge.

 

I but it at our local napa. A box of 100 ft is like 40$
