I am restoring an Amberola VI.  The gear cover was missing.  I have made a 
replacement and painted it the correct color but would like to pin stripe 
it.  The original gear cover had gold pinstripes about 1/16" wide on either 
side that were about 1/8" in from the edge.  I could paint them but masking 
the piece correctly will be difficult and thepinstripes will look poor it 
they are not matched exactly.  I have a couple of other ideas.  I believe 
pinstriping tape used on automobiles is available 1/16" wide.  Anyone know 
where I can get this?  Also I believe auto paint suppliers have a masking 
tape for pinstriping where the center section can be removed.  This assures 
that the width is consistent when the paint is applied.  I don't know if it 
is available for a 1/16" width or where to get it.  Any ideals.  Finally I 
know some parts suppliers have decals for redoing the beds on Edison 
machines.  I would need a decal set with two stripes at least 8" long. 
Anyone know of a supplier for these?  Thanks
