Anyone pin stripe their bike or use a kit?

[shikano53]

I am thinking I would like to put a bit of pin striping on my 2004 Midnight Venture and was wondering if anyone has done this themselves and if they have used a kit and where to purchase them.

 

Thank you for any help or advice.

Mines pinstripped but done by a pro. I'm no artest. I think we do have a member here who does that stuff so maybe he'll chime in.

I did my own. It is not that difficult unless you want to get really fancy. Most body supply shops carry pinstripping kits. A cloth dampened with brake clean is a good way to prep and clean the surface prior to sticking on the pin stripping.

I had mine done by http://www.jaybirdcustomart.com/index.php?option=com_content&view=article&id=10&Itemid=9 while it was being 2 toned and before the clear coat.

Jaybird will probably be at this years MD at freebirds again

Wow, I had never thought about using brake cleaner to strip the wax and clean the paint. Thanks for that tip!
