Glenn Gambell from the list turned me on to using electrical tape to
mask the boot strip. extremely flexible and cheap, if there is a
Harbour Freight nearby.

Yes, tape the stripes then sand up to them. I'd say wet sand with 220
or 320, depending on how much shine you're after. If the tape edge
gets messed up, just re-tape it before you paint.
I'd use awl grip, again. I would call the techs at the company and ask
if you need to prime over the old awl grip. Use a decent brush and
paint them one at time so you don't lose your "wet edge" and you
should be fine.

Want to freshen up Awlgriped water line stripes.
I assume I need to sand it but do not want to sand the topsides or
the blue stripe between the two white stripes. I will be taping
of course but just sand over tape? Wont the sanding affect the
tapes edge and therefore the ultimate paint line will be sloppy?
Paint choice for painting and any other suggestions for the job?
Thanks in advance
