I've got a JD'40 A that's getting close to completion. I'm looking for tips to paint the raised letters on the axel housings JD yellow. Do you guys mask the area or simply free-hand with a small brush?

Thanks,
Dean

Ditto on the foam roller or a hard rubber roller.

Painted my "43 B this spring. I painted the raised letters using a 4" foam roller, came out great. Took all of 5 min.

I'm going to remember the roller bit =) I've always hand painted them with a small brush.
