Hey, thanks for watching! I have a friend who works in a sheet metal shop and saves me the off cuts and scrap. Old hand saws work well as well.

I will paint on anything that paint will stick to. I have a friend who works in a sheet metal shop and he saves me the off cuts. Also I stop at the local second hand store and find celling fan blades and other items that have the proper shape. I’ve painted toilet seats, mail boxes and hand saws to name a few.

I prefer to paint on metal panels, but will just about paint anything I can get paint to stick to.

I have used sword/dagger brushes in the past. I really like Xcalibur brushes but have used the scrollers for quite sometime now. The Drag’n fly brushes have changed things drastically for my art.

@ I was using the Kafka #3 scroller I liked it, I recently changed to the Mack series 10 and forcing myself to learn that brush

@ I’ve used the Mack series ten in the past, but after I used an Xcalibur I was more impressed with them. They’re a little shorter than the series 10. Try one out sometime, I think you may be impressed.

@ I will order one up and give it a try

@ ten four, let me know how you feel about it.

Thanks Mike! Much appreciated!

These brushes are my favourite! Let me know how you make out with it. Thanks for watching!

I use One shot lettering enamel and Alpha6 enamels.

Thanks, I appreciate you saying that. As for the stand…. I found an old surgeons chair in a scrap bin years ago and used the arm rests coupled together to make this fully adjustable easel. I made a video about if you want to have a look.

@@PinstriperDave I need to check out the video. I’m just getting started and I’m looking for an adjust easel

@@samporazzo2178 it’s called Rig rundown.

Thank you Claire, I had fun paint these ones as as well as yours.

That’s great Mike, there were only a few folks asking to see it in that speed so it was kinda like I was doing just for you guys. I’ll see how it turns out and do more while my shop is packed up and being moved.

Glad you liked that. I should go through and redo some of my old ones in real time.

I’ll paint on anything that paint will stick to. I saw a bunch of fan blades at the local 2nd hand store and thought they were the right shape for my designs. Grabbed as many as they had.

That makes me happy Mike! Thank you.

You are so welcome! It makes it all seem worth it to makes these! Th more I watch your videos, the more I think we're cut from the same cloth.

@PinstriperDave i appreciate that man! I was taught how to pinstripe, but lettering and sign stuff I'm self teaching..

Thanks uncle Todd!

I’ll do some in real time, I’m just worried people will lose interest.

I used to work a lot of dirty jobs, so I was always in dirty clothes. Plus it’s fun to say I got a little dirt in the paint.

I’m glad you enjoyed it, I spent years watching my mentor paint things and was always so fascinated by it. Much appreciation , thanks for reaching out to me.

I’m happy to hear that you haven’t gave up. Stick with it as it does take time. There’s lots of tricks to help you along the way and I’ll do my best to help out where I can. Thanks for your support.

@PinstriperDave i subbed for script content. My line work is pretty good but I've always struggled with lettering. I'm starting to lean more into sign painting though so I've been working with letters a lot more recently.

Keep up the good work, I’ve subbed to your channel as well.

@@PinstriperDave thank you!

Thank you so much, glad you’ve found my page.

Thanks

Truly a compliment coming from a man of your ability! Thank you Seppo!

Thanks 👍

I have used one shot high temp reducer in the past but at the moment I’ve been using alpha6 products.

Not sure yet, but I’ll work on it.

Thanks for watching, It's been real nice hearing from other sign writers. All the ones I used to know have all passed on.

Thanks uncle Todd!

It depends what the board is made of, but I will just base coat with whatever paint I have around. If you know someone at a sheet metal shop you could see if they’ll save you the off cuts. Thin gauge metal works well and it’s usually pre painted.

Thanks, will do!

I knew you’d like that one!

Merci mon ami!

It’s a cellulose sign board I get from my friend’s sign shop. He saves me the off cuts that he has no use for. Usually I paint on steel so my magnetic easel will work with them.

I appreciate that you’re learning this art form. I promised my mentor I’d do my part to keep it alive. Paint everything!

Thank you so much 😀

You are so welcome!
