Hi All;
Please forgive last send. Finger slipped.
On the subject of Pin Stripping. Ambrosio used to make a pinstripping vinyl decal kit that came in a neat container. Each roll was precut to 3 different widths. Extremely easy to apply and to trim. Also quite forgiving and easy to reposition the stripping. I still have a roll of gold and a roll of blue.
If anybody is interested in the last two rolls I have, contact me off list.
Cheers,
Brian Toronto, Canada

I believe the very fine line style of pin striping on old bikes is done
with a ruling pen and not a brush. Saw it done...

Hello Chuck,
I saw a fellow had applied pin stripping to a vintage bike that looked nice. He said it was applied with a special roller paint kit for this purpose. This is not a house paint roller; its a little wheel gadget that paints thin line; crooked or straight.
I'll not sure what a ruler pin is but that might be integrated in the roller gadget.
I think I saw this in stripping gadget on ebay.
