Masking advice - anybody got any tricks?

Group, I know some of you do your own bodywork and paint as I do so
hopefully someone will have a good solution for my problem. I have painted
the firewall, door sills, inner fenders, rad support, inner doors, etc.
prior to reassembly on my '65 300. Now that I have aligned the doors,
fenders, trunk lid, and hood I'm wanting to continue blocking out the body
and finishing the final bodywork on the outer body.
My problem is that I need an efficient way of sealing the doors, hood, and
trunk so the building primer/sealer I'm laying over the body doesn't ruin my
finished paintwork on the inside of the door jambs and under the hood. I've
done my share of masking in the past but never has it needed to be this
good, I'm looking for perfection here......no overspray! Any suggestions?
I've considered buying foam piping and squeezing it or taping it at the
seams.......might work well for the hood and trunk but not sure about the
doors.
I'm also interested in restoring my original window gaskets, is there a
cleaner that will disolve old sealer and clean the rubber without damaging
or deteriorating the rubber? Are there any nice fitting aftermarket gaskets
available for the '65? Recent emails have been warning of poor reproductions
of the earlier Chrysler gaskets. Has anyone used the ones Steele Rubber
Products offer......their weatherstripping is very nice!
Any help or advice would be appreciated. Thanks, Ryan Hill
