    Started pinstriping awhile ago, I’m through about a half pint of ‘one-shot’, so just a newbie, my goal is to be able to stripe a tank/fender etc, nothing fancy. The scroll ‘scribbling’ is with a Kafka I just got in the other day, won’t be doing much of that stuff but thought I’d give it a whirl. Any stripers on here with some tips…I’m all ears! 🙂

    Anyone has experience with the Beugler Striper? http://www.beugler.com/ I just want to make simple lines with it.

    I worked with a painter who had one of these. He used it to redo the painted pin stripes on chryslers. Worked really well for him. Unfortunately, I never got the chance to try it out.

    Hey….
    I’ve been striping freehand for roughly 12 yrs the best advice is practice everyday.start out with straight consistent lines and the rest comes with time.i used Mac brushes for years with a lot of success but Kafka puts out a long liner series that’s second to none.when you mix your paint start out with a couple drops of reducer and pallet until you feel a slight drag on the brush.any questions let me know.
