    Would imagine it was a custom job done just for that car, but looking at the designs it should take you about 10 minutes to replicate as its just a load of rectangles.

    Well the customer give me this pic and he asked could i do the same to his car.
    I had a look on google and there are a few the same as this car, as you say they could be custom.

    i just had a go at putting together something very similar.will work on it tonight!

    thanks all

    Get yourself some fineline pinstriping tape and a few cans of 1-Shot lettering enamel (better yet that Kemp’s or Keep’s stuff) Tape it up and apply the paint with a small foam roller.
    You could have this done in half the time, using half the money in materials, but double the profit over vinyl.
    Love…..Jill

    Good idea Jill.

    One Shot is popular over here, ‘Keeps’ stopped trading a while ago but there are some of their paints still available but I wouldn’t have thought the customer would allow Scott to use paint on their car.

    Scott,

    It would look cool if you airbrushed a fade on the vinyl stripes leaving say a 5mm border just to be a little different.

    Do this off the car and coat with Frog Juice after to protect them.

    A very easy effect that can add more profit to the job.

    I really liked that pattern so I had a go at it. Hope you still needs it (and mine is ok).
