up until now I have always just used paint stripper to remove the finish in the bridge area, I am finishing one now which is a falcate braced guitar and since the bridge location is determined while building I thought I would mask the area off...I am using extra tack .
001 film, once the finish is applied how do you get it off????? I would assume mount the bridge and score around the edge of the bridge in the same manner used cutting the tape then start removing from the center of the masked area outward?????
