Official CGM Pinstriping thread

[Dakota]

As some of you know I've been doing some pinstriping in my spare time..still learning a lot but I figured this would be a cool place to post up some of the stuff I have done and also a place for anybody else who either has any pinstriping or has done any themselves who can offer any tips/tricks to those who would like to learn
I started off by picking up a mack00 brush and some cheap rustoleum paint from Walmart to practice with
Here is my first attempt

After the red

Next one

And one more on the small mirror

 

[Dakota]

Decided to stripe the hood on my truck

Kept it like that for a week or so then decided to add a little to it

Here are a few I did on some glass I got from some big picture frames

Did my dads log book

And his oakleys

Size comparison of the brush and a quarter

Then hooked noe up on his oakleys

And did my phone case lastnight

That looks good for just starting out Dakota. I have been practicing on and off, I need to stick with it.

 

[Dakota]

Thanks man..it's definitely a learning process, I need to pick up a few more brushes and some 1shot paints

 

[TILLER]

If you ever want to practice some teal I have a hood and tailgate :cheeky:

 

[Dakota]

Haha once I get some more brushes and some paints and get a little more practice in we'll see lol

Word..I've always been a fan of pinstriping and after a little practice it's really not that hard to learn

Want to try a glove box door from an early OBS dash? Would it work on the factory texture?

Yea I would give it a shot..wouldnt work very well with the texture though

Well damn, I don't want to smooth just the glove box. Will have to do some thinking about it.
