The previous vertical hitch-pin thread brings to mind a mundane ? about masking the holes efficiently. This is the kind of throw-away task that ends up consuming way too much time for me. Not only that, as usual, removing the masking itself ends up damaging the finish as the finish has adhered to the masking. 1- has anyone tried not masking the holes at all, and just lightly rotary filing the holes pre and post painting? I haven't on the theory that over-spray would screw-up the hole clearances...maybe that concern is foo-foo. 2- anyone tried using silicone plugs? Finish doesn't adhere to silicone. I located them at macmaster-carr...cheap I understand they are used in industry for this purpose. Jim I
