I want to start practicing doing some pin stiping and want to know what kind of paint is used . can ya help a brother out?
1-Shot Lettering Enamel. Look in the Yellow Pages under sign supplies for a local supplier. Avoid Eastwood.
They Screwed one of the guys on the Metalshapers board on a business deal. Stole his design,and had someone else make copies, while still using photos of the original in their catalogs. And you can get anything they have,cheaper,elsewhere.
1 Shot definely! Do not even mess around with inferior qualitly stuff, it will only frustrate you. If you can't find it local, I have had good service from www.misterart.com on line. Quick shipping and most all colors in stock.
I use 1-shot. I have used HOK, but to expensive. And I prefer 1-shot. What kind of brushes you planning on using?
Well lets see...what does Unk say...yep...none better than One Shot. I will concur with the concensus of the board, not because it's the cool thing to do, but One Shot is all I use...
Yes, One-Shot will work the best for you in my opinion. I just don't understand this... [ QUOTE ] Stole his design,and had someone else make copies, while still using photos of the original in their catalogs. [/ QUOTE ] Did he submit his design to them or something? Just wondering...I got brush, I got paint, la-la-la-la... Some people here have a hard on for Eastwood, but I have nothing but good things to say about them. (****-Head Blick is a complete other story.) But then again, I live relatively close to their wharehouse and can drive there and get what I need instead of ordering it.
[ QUOTE ] I just don't understand this... [/ QUOTE ] They were buying a product from him,that he designed and manufactured,for resale. Then they cut him out of the loop, and got someone else to make sloppy copys of that design,most likely at a lower cost. The same way Speedway screwed over Vern Tardell. Wallmart is a bad influence.
