cute wee gem Posted June 24, 2009 Share Posted June 24, 2009 I'm having dirty thoughts about re-painting my sedan soon and would like to find some pinstriping close to the original style, but in colour instead of black. Where can I get some? Example of original The other thing I'd like to know is what masking tape can I get for laying out curved lines, the stuff I've tried doesn't like to bend and crinkles leaving a crap finish.

Crownin_Round Posted June 24, 2009 Share Posted June 24, 2009 #m make a masking tape that's like half a centimetre wide, if that, and that's a lot more "curvable" but pretty average on price! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Brock-Lee Posted June 24, 2009 Share Posted June 24, 2009 yuh, thinner stuff the easier it is to do epic curves. That stuff you are using can do sweet curves too, you just use one edge to get the curve you want and the rest gets folded up etc takes ages but still works sweet. Thinner is best tho Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
kyteler Posted June 24, 2009 Share Posted June 24, 2009 Go to a signwriter, they should have pinstriping like that available off the shelf. Not sure what colour variations it comes in though I know at least black and white, perhaps red too. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

kyteler Posted June 25, 2009 Share Posted June 25, 2009 Yeah, they could make it up in any colour you want but the "off the roll" stuff that comes in styles like on the Gemini in the before shot is only available in limited colours, AFAIA Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
