Does the white stop inside the channel on top of the roof or does it stop under the lip of the channel?

Basically - where do i put the masking tape to mask off the rest of the car?

Originally the white was on the top side only , so the top of the gutters and roof were white , the outside edge and underside of the gutter was body colour . Hope that hasn't confused things further ...

Usually the inside of the gutter (the wet bit :roll: ) is the colour of the roof and the outside is the body colour. If you were to fit a cover strip around the gutters edge (like the bottom seam under the doors and over the arches) it would separate the colors

Hi Miniboy,
My '66 has a white roof and the slit line is the top edge of the gutter, so white right up to the top on the inside.

Regards
Al

On the outer part of the roof gutter, all around.
