  • The most simple way I could explain how to start pinstriping, it's not the complete howto guide but it should be enough to learn the very basics.
    What is not included (or talked about in the video) is the hours, days, weeks and years of practice. It can take a while but it is fun.
    Give it a go.
    If you need to know more than ask in the comments section below.

    what brush or brushes should I use for a line 5mm and one 2 or 3mm ,, and is there a special paint for chrome ? ,,, if you see this , thank you

    • @PaintySniffers
      @PaintySniffers  Před 2 lety

      No need to say sorry mate, you found the video eventually.
      Painting on chrome is alright, getting it to stick is the problem. clean it really well with a degreaser first then clean it really well again with more degreaser.
      I use 1Shot sign enamel paint and a little hardener (the hardener is nasty stuff, read the label and all the warnings before opening, it's also really expensive over here).
      A 5mm line, I'd probably us an English liner brush (give it a google) and for the 2/3mm line I'd use a Mack series 10 in a size OO or OOO.
      The alternative is to mask the lines using fine line tape. That way you can see exactly what you're going to get before laying down any paint.

    Really great videos and cool work. I’m practicing with sword style brushes (0, 00, 000 and 0000), and a couple scrollers. I really want to master the swords but I have a hard time controlling flares on my curves. The lines go thin to thick to thin again. I think it’s a combination of clumsy rolling of the brush, and maybe also inconsistent distance from the work surface. I’ll keep practicing, but wondering if you have any tips on how to manage the “rolling” for smoother results?

    • @PaintySniffers
      @PaintySniffers  Před 4 lety +3

      Hi jay3361, thanks for watching and the question.
      Advice on rolling the brush....
      Try larger radius curves at first, rolling the brush slightly in the direction of the curve and lifting the handle of the brush up so there is less "hair" on the panel. Practice that and then as you get used to it and cleaner lines, try slightly tighter curves.
      I use my little finger to steady my hand and keep control the distance from the work surface.
      I may do another video on curves, maybe.
      Keep practicing and having fun 👍

I think I've resolved that the biggest issue is that I don't always effectively match the speed and direction of the brush with the spin. I have a tendency to spin too much, too early. Working on curves of varied length and sharpness of the turns helps--and I find that if I slow down and really watch the brush--watching to ensure that I'm pulling the bristles through the curve and keep the track consistent, I get good results. So your advice is right on. Thanks again. I'll keep practicing.

      Hello, I’ve never tried it so couldn’t really say a definite yes or no.

      Enamel paint is the most common paint used in pinstriping, urethane paint is sometimes used and I’ve heard some people are now using acrylic paints. You would have to research which brushes are compatible with other paints.

    How do you come up with cool designs? That's what I struggle with learning to pinstripe.
    I understand basic concepts like mirroring, teardrop shapes, the basic line types, and even understand things like not leaving open ended lines.
    I can look at pro pinstriping and think this or that design looks cool, but I can't seem to figure out the style.
    Is it just years of practice coming up with actual designs that have that right feel to them, or are there staples of "good" designs that separate them from the bad that aren't basics?

    • @PaintySniffers
      @PaintySniffers  Před 3 lety

      I wish I knew a quick answer to this, I think you’re on the right track with studying other people’s designs and working out what works and what doesn’t. I take a panel and just free style lines on it, not worrying about symmetry or anything, just making shapes, connections and patterns. Then I’ll look and see if there’s anything that works, lines I like and things I don’t.
      You can take a while to find your style or you could stumble upon it by a happy little accident.
      If I think of anything else then I’ll let you know.

    • @PaintySniffers
      @PaintySniffers  Před 7 měsíci +1

      Hello, sorry about the voice but it is what it is and I’m not changing it now.
      Reducers, I mostly use chromaflo for pinstriping but sometimes use the low temp reducer when it’s really cold.
      You can use mineral spirits but I find that makes the paint sort of slippery.
      If you need to clear over your work, add hardener to the paint and use high temp reducer but be aware the paint will dry very quickly even in the brush.
      I hope this helps, thank you for watching.

    • @PaintySniffers
      @PaintySniffers  Před 7 měsíci

      Clearing over 1shot can be tricky, it’s an enamel (oil based paint) and can wrinkle up under the clear coat.
      Anything that I need clearing over I use a little hardener in it and leave to fully cure for a week (or longer if I can), then a few “dust coats” of clear and leaving to dry before hitting it with a wet coat.
      It’s solvents in the clear that does it.

    About the stabilo pencil, is it a regular one, like an 2HB for instance?
    Have you got another name for the mineral spirits? Just because where I live english is not our mother tongue. I reckon it is a fluid with a strong odor that's used to wipe off paint, like you dip a rag into that liquid and then wipe the areas you want to strip the paint off. Is that it?

      Stabilo all surface pencils wipe off easily after the paint has dried with a little water, not like a regular pencil.
      Mineral spirits, we call it "white spirits" here in the UK, your description sounds about right, I got the following description from Wikipedia.org
      "White spirit (UK) or mineral spirits (US, Canada), also known as mineral turpentine (AU/NZ), turpentine substitute, petroleum spirits, solvent naphtha (petroleum), Varsol, Stoddard solvent, or, generically, "paint thinner", is a petroleum-derived clear liquid used as a common organic solvent in painting."
