You can use the plastic "fine line" masking tape, or just mask over the whole lettering area, then cut the tape around the letters with a razor blade.





hey. Ronald McDonald called. He wants payment for the paint job he did on your engine.

While the red and yellow accents aren't my thing I will say it looks clean. That's better than oil and rust all over an engine in my opinion.

Ha ha ha. That was the paint I had laying around, and besides ridiculous colors were in fifteen years ago. As Chris said, "it's better than rust". What's important is that I ran that stupid looking engine literally all over US and Canada for several years without ever breaking down, so picture middle finger (here)!
Here's what it looks like now, still uber reliable, and good for winning trophies.
