Default Canopy Lines?

I'm bulding a 1/2A T-6 and I need to get some color onto the canopy frame, preferabbly red: Monokote True Red. How do you all do this?

You might get a sheet of trim (sticky-back), slice it
into 1/8" strips, and apply it to the canopy as desired.

Default T-6 Canopy

You can use Fly Boy Dave's idea as well as picking up striping tape at your local auto parts store. I applied mine on the inside of the canopy, that way you can wipe the canopy clean and it stays in place.
