the First Rule of Pinstriping is: you ARE going to F@ 

I was just watching a psychologist and she was discussing how school has paralyzed us we were taught to sit down shut up and get the answer right not to make mistakes and to truly learn through those mistakes you are correct keep it up you will mess it up but you will grow with any crap The Joy comes with learning and struggling through to become more proficient

I remember those days just starting out. Trying to get the lines symetrical and thinner instead of bulky and thick. Practice is key and it takes time to get good.

Imboutta start myself and I wish I had someone to teach me like this in person..good thing I'm a hands on and visual learner

Thanks for the awesome content! I am teaching myself how to pinstripe and trying to learn all I can from stripers like yourself! Im a realism artist but I absolutely love this art form. Its so different than what I do but Im getting there with practice!

I love your storytelling I feel like this is to do with many things in life we do many attempts need more effort or practice or time to work things out in our mind and creative ways and for the flow.

I hate screwing something up. However, when i try something new and screw it up, i learn from it and its almost as important as doing it right.

I Like You Guys, Your Enthusiasm Keeps it on a Positive Vibe! ;)

Man if your still in chico I would love to experience seeing you paint in person, love your videos!

Haha awesome realistic attitude to have!

I started a few months ago. It’s not easy. Trying to keep all the lines the same thickness. I’m getting better.

Hey Max! Thanks for the video. Love this stuff. Question. On the pinstripes behind you, do you do the white on top of the red after or before the red dries?

RU-vid is really starting to screw with my head. I'm messing with a 1948 Clinton air cooled single cylinder gas engine. Cleaning, sanding, painting and all I've done is sort of think about looking for my 35 year old striping brushes. Today, I turn on the computer and what is in my suggestions? Pinstriping. Mind you, my search history is steam locomotives and the Canadian trucker's protest so why this popped up in my suggestions baffles me. Anyway, enjoyed the show, going to look for my brushes and a piece of glass to practice on. Wish me luck.

Thank you

Just ordered a brush and some paint.... time to f@$k some stuff up.

gunno give it a go.....

oh my god i F@#c it up

You have to do hundreds of center needle eyes . Some moves look bad like too many crossovers or crossing at funny angles.

For the first time it is very good he could practice and stripe

That's a fuck'n legit first rule...lmfao

This should be said to everyone right after the doctor spanks their brand new asses. Welcome to ~73 years of mistakes/lessons and some success.

if u want to get to the striping 6. 29

Interesting teaching advice, total negativity! Your going to fuk this up ? Wow, I made good money the first time I picked up a brush, no negativity, liked the sound of your friend slapping your bald head too!

That’s a pretty darn good first pull.

I couldn't tell ya why I ended up watching most of this video but I did and hear I am with a fat ol' grin on my face. Dude, Max, if you gave anyone this much attention, enthusiasm, and so many helpful pro-tips, I am sure they'd be on the fast track to pin striping. What a fun time, you two! Thanks for sharing!

You make me Laugh Bro! That's what's up. Just getting ready to start striping at 50 yrs old. Thanks for the motivation .

Wow, the boy did good. I was not expecting such nice lines from so early in the process. I have seen custom car painters bring in a pin striper after spending weeks and a ton of money on the paint so far, and being nervous as all heck in case they messed up.

Tha k you I definitely put down lines then wipe em off ,then put another line down of course like many im not happy with the lines soooo i wipe em off and start again thw hardest part is getting the paint mixeg to meet the environment around you

get a steve kafka number 3 scroller striper and u dont have to twist the brush,.

Awesome video!! Just finished striping some stuff on my BBQ grill lid!

hey max today i got a kit because of this video man, thanks man

If you are unwilling to be the fool you will never be the master.

nice video, and good job ! Thx from Belgium

This video is relate to everything you do. Just let everything fvckk up at the first time

Lol I love the way you straight out tell us!! You are going to f**ck up lol 😆 I have been airbrushing for years and I also paint cars , candys , flakes ect.. but only as a hobby for friends, I’m in a car club so I do a little work here and there!! But I decided to start pintsriping and holly crap!!!!! It’s an entire different burrito!! 😂😂 I’m on 3 weeks now and slowly I’m beginning to have more control of the brush,,,, it’s about how the brush feels you also must be creative and lots and lots of patience! Lol a little hard for me I have PTSD but I really want to learn so I thank you for sharing you’re knowledge with us rookies,,,, 👍🏼🙏🏻🙏🏻😡😡🙏🏻🇺🇸

Back in the late 60s there was a in Queens N.Y.C. VIC KESSLER did all the HOT RODS. HIS CALL SIGN WAS TWO FEET

Very easy to listen to .....

whats a good starter pinstriping brush

Nice job! Now I know where I’ve been screwing up .. NO JACK

I started about a week ago today i done my first design wth paint. i needed to thin my paint so that it would flow better.

I hand re-painted a sign for my church as a teenager and lately I've had an overwhelming urge to try pinstriping but idk what to stripe first. I'm tempted to look at pawn shops for beat up old guitars to practice on. I love the idea of pinstriping to cover scratches and whatnot. Thank you for the encouragement to try and try again!

Bet you remembered before you hit the ground

Thanks Max .Obrigado.

Yup, I fucked a lot of shit up.. good video

Where do you buy supplies?
