How Many Pinstripers are there here?

Just curiouse to how many pinstripers there are on the board, I know there's skratch, gator, and a few others that i cant remember there name's, im getting started in it, been practicing for about a year and a half now.
Thanks guys.

 

Not me, I can barely walk in a straight line even when sober.

 

Still learning... slowly.

 

Im one...You can click on the link below to check out my work.

 

Off the top of my head, I know of me, safarinut and unkl ian. Those two are a couple of VERY talented guys too. There are dozens more though, I think. I met a couple at Detroit Autorama a couple years ago that I'm pretty sure are on here.

who's NOT a pinstriper?

 

I stripe a little, Learn more everytime I try.

 

I think that if there's a striper out there who tells you they're not still learning they're either lying to you or they aren't actively striping.

Vance

 

that applies to all aspects of life

 

Ive been at it since 1974, full time for the last 20 years or so...should have went to law school!!.

 

00Mack is full of crap... just learnin?? whatever, that there is some goooood freakin work!!! I'd say you whizzed through learning process!!

 

00Mack is the Master!

 

Could someone PM me some answers to my ?? I'm having trouble with my brush wanting to almost lay flat on when I stripe I want it to be nice and thin... I'm using a 00 mack... do I need to thin 1-shot?

 

You shold be striping with the last 1/4" of the brush.Find the appropriate consistanct and have at it.

 

thin w/ mineral spirits. are you palleting the brush? holding it right?

 

sorry pm box was full... you can resend now! thanks fellas!

 

Hey Anthony!
Do you do any travel to show's? ....like Nad's Rumbler show coming up in Feb ?

 

I tried mineral spirits... they clogge my brush. but I was using some ppg stuff, not one shot on that deal.

 

Last 1/4 you mean the tip of it?

 

yes, the belly of the brush just holds the paint

 

Been stripin' on and off in the Chicago area since '60. Lots more HAMB stripers should be checkin' in soon.

 

Checkin' in for the last 26 years...Man, my hands are tired and look like shit

 

DUH! killerd is one of best travelling stripers to ever walk the earth too. And talk about FAST! The first time I saw Darin working at a show, he nailed 16 cars in about eight hours. And I've worked with him at other shows and can tell you he was taking it easy that first time I saw him. Most people break a sweat from just watching him!

Vance

 

thank you Vance,That has to be one of the nicest things anyone has ever said about me.God bless you!!!

Your not bad yourself

 

Oh please... I've seen you stripe a car before I can even get my brush out of my overly-equiped paint box!

Oh, and did I mention Darin is the single most humble striper you'll ever meet? Case in point above!

Vance

 

I have been striping for about 29 years.I travel all over the U.S. and have strped with Vance, unkl Ian and safarinut.I stripe with lacquer thinner and a 0 mach.I learn everyday and it never gets old.

 

I'm not the best or the fastest.If you start thinking you are ,you have nothing to shoot for.There is alway someone better than you around the corner.I just love doing my work and making friend with the people I meet.It is like putting on a show.The more people watching the better I do.
