<VV> any tips on painting a convertible without getting overspray on the nice white top?

[Mel Francis]

We just painted a '66 convertible today. We folded the top down, lowered all 
the windows, put a car cover over the folded top and interior and then 
tightly masked with blue painter's plastic over the entire interior, dash 
area and windshield. This method eliminates the possibility of fumes working 
their way in around the perimeter of a top that is fully up, especially at 
the a-pillar area, where you are spraying close.

It worked great! Once the car had dried, we removed all the masking and put 
the top back up.....
