@@villapinstriping May I ask why you advised not to start with black or metallic colors? What makes them so difficult? I really wanted to practice with silver because that is what I was planning on using for my project.
@@Turco949 Black is super thick and requires more reducing. Metallics usually don't lay down very consistently, they usually leave streaks and require a few passes.

Thank you I haven't bought anything yet of the professional 1shot painting equipment. I have been using rustolum paint and a long wip brush I made using a paint brush and I made a paint brush using hair from the barbershop that I've been painting pretty cool signs and a lot of people been liking my work. Now I thought I would do some research on what I need to get started I have everything but the pro brushes and the 1shot paint. I might as well pop on it and get it. It's very expensive.
Hello: I want to learn the skills of drawing lines on the tubular frame of a bicycle. Where can I buy a brush for drawing or must I make my own? Thank you for your teaching.
Well the guy who turned me on to what was needed and what was waste uses pretty much everything you use and I’d bet he is older than both of us combined. Great video thanks I hesitate to get started reading a lot of people expect to pay or talk about paying 100.00 for lines on a car because they can use stick on stuff for that kind of cash. I’d figure 50.00 for a name on a helmet any less and it not worth having to clean the brushes. Great info could have done without the commercials but we all could say that.
It's just something that needs to be learned. Clearing requires a few light coats over 1 shot before going full blast. Making sure the 1 shot is dry also helps. Adding hardener can greatly increase the odds in your favor. Just something that needs to be tested for you to understand how it will react
I just found your channel today, and i really appreciate how informative and easy to follow your videos are. I'm going to be getting into pin striping soon, so I find this specific video very helpful! Thanks so much!
You're very welcome Taylor. I hope you have a fun time learning, just remember to practice, practice, practice. If I can help with anything just ask. Take care
Most important thing is paint consistency . Proper palletting -- always final pallet on fresh newsprint not getting a false feel from palleting on your pile of paint [ wrong amout of drag.] You are feeling for a certain drag.
Love the video. I just ordered some brushes. Im setting up an area. My question, is best for a beginner to start put with the glass panel laying flat on the table or on an angle?
Both. You will eventually need to know how to work both ways. But, comfortableness in the very beginning helps to get you practicing more. So go with what feels natural. But try not to get use to just one spot. Hope that helps
nice video!but i want to know that,if put brush in the oil,will it do bad when i stripe with oil based pait?we know that we have to clean the item surface especially to make sureno oil on it before we paint,but now you put brush into the motor oil to preserve it...i dont understand...
The brush oil is ONLY for when you are NOT USING THE BRUSH... You mush clean all of the oil out of the brush before using the brush. You want a clean brush every time you paint. No oil.
@@villapinstriping oh i got it!thanx,bro !i saw many ppl do striping on a clear coat that not sanded...do you do the same like them ?shouldnt i worry that the paint cant catch the surface ?in my mind,we should paint on a not too smooth surface to make sure the paint can tightly stick on it,am i wrong?
Yes. I also paint on top of the clear. The only thing you need to do is make sure the surface is completely clean (no wax, no contamination) that's what makes the paint stick to the clear coat. It lasts a very long time as long as you prepare the surface well. Clean with wax and grease remover.
Blick online has 1-shot with free shipping if you spend $45 which is easy to do if you buy a few cans of paint, which I did today $75 Also, you can mix any color you desire just by using the primary colors Red, Yellow, and Blue, so if you're on a budget, just buy the primary colors
I have the same brushbox Villa, I've had it for over two decades now and it is a very important feature to have in your stiping kit because it keeps your long lines brushes nice and straight. I keep all of my brushes in this kit oiled with thirty wieght motor oil. I also cut a piece of cardboard to the shape of the box and slide it umderneath the springs to give my long lines brushes a flat surface to rest on.
@@villapinstriping I never had an issue with dust but you can clean the inside of the box periodically if you need to. I still have all of my brushes oiled inside this box with my striping kit. I did a lot of long lines and panel repair in bodyshops.
Thank you Mr. Villa! Im this close to dipping my brush into paint for the 1st. time. I was wondering if I can just get by with the mineral spirits or do I really need the laquer thinner too?. I also heard you say that black paint is not good to start with but that's the color I have.
Absolutely you can get by with just mineral spirits! If you can learn to work the black paint you'll be able to work all of them :) it will just require a little more finesse to reduce properly. It'll be just fine sir

hey villa pinstriping i do old school sign lettering and gold leaf lettering i would love to do sommething for my way to say thanks you got me started with how u did your vids etc
konstantin sche Black is a very thick and difficult color to work with if you are just starting out. (It requires a lot more reducing than other colors) You don't have to stay away from black, I was just saying it's probably not the best color to practice with if you are brand new to pinstriping. You will eventually need to get some.
Stay away from laquer thinner all together, it's way too agressive for cleanig brushes and will totally ruin some plastics. I have used mineral spirits for thining, but benzine I belive is better because it evaporates quicker and you can use it as a degreeser as well. Great video!
@@villapinstriping I would look into also, "Bra-Kleen" brake cleaner, because it's for use on auto brakes it's really clean while not being too hard on plastics, I used to shoot competitively and used to use it to spray out my gun(s) at the end of a practice session. It comes in a spray can, clean and flashes off quickly w/o any residue or as my pal the motorcycle and airplane mechanic used to say, "Resi-doo-doo".
Villa Pinstriping it is more effective to add several drops of the same hardner to the mineral spirits that you pallet with, “marrying” the paint and avoiding a bad paint reaction, I wish you would check with a professional before giving out the wrong information, I’m here if you have questions, I’ve been doing this very successfully for almost fifty years.

I do have a wee question, I'm finding it hard to get all the paint out of the ferrule, i use white mineral spirits as a first wash then low temp reducer but i just cant get it all out. Brushes here are $50- $80 each (im in New Zealand) and i dont want to kill them!. Any ideas? Thanks so much again and you too have a awesome day :)
Sarah_d_makeupartistry So please remember to use clear mineral spirits (not the milky white stuff)... Low Temp reducer should only be used to reduce, not to clean. Please try my method of using (Lacquer thinner 1st wash... Then Mineral Spirits 2nd wash. Wipe at the base of the hair in between. Repeat as many times as needed. As long as you keep them well oiled they should be fine.
Hi, the better brush oil is Neatsfoot oil. It is a leather dressing and derived from animals. It is not as harsh as a minerals oil, after all the brush hairs are normally animal hairs. It is available from saddlery shops. Must be 100% pure and not mixed with mineral oil or bees wax. I have sign brushes that are 30 years old and still pull nice lines. Cheers from New Zealand.
Or just do a hood. And to see the process on the start to end. On the hood. If I do it like that is that gonna fade away on every was I do??. Or then do I have to throw clear coat??
@@potror9289 No need for clear coat. It will not fade away if you clean the surface properly. You have to make sure the paint has zero wax or grease on the original paint job before adding the pinstriping.
Do I have to sand the paint in order to pinstripe it?? Or if the car is ready painted just start pinstriping? What's the pensil for?? That pensil cleans of??
Motor oil has detergents and chemicals not natural to hair, it was used years ago because it was and is readily available. A natural oil that will nurture the hair is neatsfoot oil, made from animal renderings@ Steve Kafka.com lots of pinstriping items.
