I just got finished watching a DVD on Scroll striping..

DUH! Now I can't wait to get on it..

I realized after watching the DVD that I have been doing this type of work for a LONG time and never knew that it would carry over to the pinstriping.. Ok, I feel dumb..

Pinstriping I still can't quite get the left and right c curves, but I am working on it.. CIRCLES are yet another story.. UGH

I got the straight vertical and horizontal pretty good for a newbie. Still need tons of practice, but at least I can hold the brush now.. LOL YEP, cut the finger nails off the right hand. OH and while I am thinking of it.. How come nobody mentioned the blisters.. LOL
Having a blast learning this.. Even if I only have a bit of time here and there.

One question I have for you pros. How do you stripe over an edge? When pulling a line you are using the fingers to steady and guide, what do you do when you have to go over a corner/edge and there is no place to steady your hand? Do you build a ledge, use another tool?
