Easy wheel taping

The owner had new tires mounted on his wheels before he brought them to me to paint. After blasting them, I let the air out and shoved playing cards between the tire and wheel. Worked perfect!

good idea however if he would have brought me the wheels with the tires on i would have handed them right back to him so he could take them to go get dismounted again OR i would have charged him like 150 per wheel to mask the tire...his choice lol.
I charge by the hour :) Believe me, I suggested taking them to get them dismounted, but he is older and more stubborn than me.
 
I got some sort of tape at a swap meet show a few years ago that was supposed to be strong enough to stick to tires to paint wheels. Think I like card method better.
