    Default Gold Leaf with Stripes

    Here is a cover I did with Varigated Gold Leaf, and
    some pinstriping accents in my faverite Teal Green,
    and Imitation Gold One Shot. Hope you like it.

    Wow! That's really sweet Fres, looks great with the verigated leaf and teal playing off the reds in it! That's a beautiful combo of colors to work with.

    If you handed an infant a brush with paint on it... that would be about the equivelant of MY "pinstriping". So, my cap is off to anyone who does it well, and you did a heck of a job! Awesome work, come to Phoenix and teach me.

    Thank you very much Witchy and WantedR1 for the nice comments
    on this Burner Cover I did. This is about the coolest item I do,
    and alot of them I give as gifts to friends. The baked on surface
    makes it great for striping, lettering, airbrushing, almost any type of
    painting. The price has gone up. Used to be about $4.99 for 2 big ones
    2 small ones. Now its $9., and you can get only black or spun steel.
    Maybe I will try some ground metal on them too.
    Thanks again,
    Fresnojohns

    hey fresno, that looks great mate!!! and it ain't easy, i guess. i did a quick flame in ground metal with AA candy, it turned out fine, but i pinstriped around it, didn't have the right brush or the right paint, so i did a quick pinstripe with a normal brush and createx.........i didn't post it, lol

    Dave,
    Thank you for the good words. I really enjoy doing these.
    I thought I would tell you something I have tried before.
    I ordered a striping brush from Mack called a Series 70. You can
    use water base paints with them. They work pretty cool too.
    I haven't tried AA yet, but tried with Black Createx. If you get any
    remember this, use water base paints for these only. Do not mix
    with other paints. Once I use a certain brush with certain paint
    it stays that way. To be safe also never use a regular Mack green
    or blue wraps with water. I will post some water base stuff soon.
    Thanks again,
    Fresnojohns
