How do you do pinstriping on the edges of a flame design, and keep everything even?

I believed I have mentioned this before on the CFP site, but anyway, this is a fairly easy way to get 1/8" or 1/16" for that matter, pinstripes (or border) around your flames or graphics.
Layout and tape off your flames. Spray your border color around the inside of your flames (let dry), then lay 1/8" or 1/16" fine line directly inside of your previous flame outline. Now this is also an important part---follow me here...you should now have two 1/8" lines side by side. You should lay another line of 1/4" right down the middle of these two lines. This will prevent any overspray from the flame color going between these two 1/8" stripes (just in case you did not get it absulutely exactly next to the other line). Okay...now once you laid you 1/4", spray your flames. Now, arefully remove all tape and there you have it, pinstripes around your flames. That also is a great way to do "fade pinstripes or border"
Here is a pic of one of my latest jobs using this technique.

,but I'm sure plenty others do it to?!
Enjoy and put it to use!!
