The earlier shots looked pretty glossy, but those last pics look great. How the heck would you do the non-stick veneer on a cathedral? I'm guessing you would glue, clamp and iron one vertical, then half the arch at a time, then opposite vertical. Or do you glue and clamp the whole sheet at once, then iron between the clamps? How long do you leave the clamps on if you iron?


Here is a caution from 3M concerning using blue tape on lacquer:

" What type of paints or coatings does ScotchBlue™ Painter’s Tape work with?

ScotchBlue Painter'€™s Tape works well with most water-based paints and coatings, such as acrylic, urethane, vinyl latex and enamels. It also works well with many solvent-based coatings alkalyds, varnishes, most enamels and some polyurethanes. In addition, ScotchBlue Painter'€™s Tape works well with plaster, glazes, textures and metallics used in faux and decorative painting.

However, be careful when working with lacquers & nitrocellulose-based lacquers react with the adhesive composition on many painter'€™s tapes, seemingly bonding the tape with the lacquer, making it impossible to remove. Before you start, make sure the tape you choose can be used with lacquers &€“ higher adhesion levels such as tan masking tapes are a better choice for this particular use, because their adhesive does not react with the lacquer in this way."

I wonder if the polypropylene automotive tapes would work well?
