I remember lace jobs and the never ending line. Bathtub sponge stamps and using sponges to make fake wood ... Gold/silver leaf...credit/ business card fades...saran wrap marble...spider webs...and acetylene torch smoke marks. Wish I had pics of my memory.

i grew up doing these type of things,at the time it was consisered very inovative,if you look at all the new technques and trick paints and some of the super fantastic artist of today as good as it all is this old school stuff will hold its own with any of it.

I love old paint jobs.My father-in-law used to lay down some really crazy paint jobs back in the 70's.We were kickin around a few ideas for my car like an old letter job wet sanded around the edges to look like an old racer.My grandfather had a shop back in the early sixties called "Shades Garage" I was thinking of lettering the doors or quarters with that logo and making it look old.

Gus, you DEFINITELY have to do that !

All I can say after seeing all these old school paint jobs is, uh, umm, Yeow

"I am not ashamed to confess I am ignorant of what I do not know."

"It's never wrong to do the right thing"

Hey Cheap,where did you get all them freakin circles?


funny/stange story.
i have a 22" roll of vynl tranfer paper..its used to lay over vynl and tranfer the lettering in the as cut layout..
My wife has this cutting kit for putting photo albums together..
i robbed the cutting kit..it has some roller wheels that cut paper,pictures and the like.
in the kit is a circle cutting tool..with multiple diameter "fences"
i laid/applied the transfer paper over a piece of glass. the used the template to cut the circles.
its a little hand held device with a razor wheel and you just run it inside of the fence and it cuts a perfect circle.
it took me a 6 pack and a full nascar race to cut all of them out...over 200# if i recal...
later i found some CD protective stick on paper thingies...but it has the smaller hole in the center sort of like a donut...
i may try them..the effect might be different with the exposed 1" hole in the center...
as long as the adheasive doesnt conflict with the reducers in the paint?
i layed them on like scales front to back.
then i shot a 2"spray from my small gun and ran it around the exposed edge of the template.
then pulled one circle off and painted the adjacent circle ..then pulled it off...and shot the next one..and on and on working my way back to the front..
ive done it on a helmet with smaller circles..and used green,gold and blues..3 guns filled with paint ready to go...
on a helmet it looks killer.
but just about any template can be used to get different effects..
the ol pinstripe tape and pray line looks the part aswell.
i usually use shimmerin (house of colors) but have been buying a lot of water base "Auto air" paints. fast drying no harsh reduecers and it can be wiped off with a wet towel if need to remove it quickly.
they have Killer colors..and you spray it right out of the bottle.no reduction.
easy gun cleanup with water..and no flash term period for the clear.
plus when paneling you dont need quarts of paint..so its much more affordable in smaller quantities..
i am giving up all my secrets...well not really but here is a link..they have some killer photos on this link as well.

I have absolutely no reservations recomending the Auto air...paints..
lays just like any other paint youve sprayed..
dip your blade staight in the bottle and lay pinstripes..
or pour it into a gun and shoot it.
you can even get bottle tops that thread onto the bottles..and you can spray your air brush connected/draw directly from the bottle.
no cleaning the hopper..just put the rubber cap on the stem..
shoot some water through the airbrush and move on to the next color.
it has killer coverage if you want it ...with mimimal mill thickness to completely cover..
or dust it on to get an opaque shadow/fade.
i am confident youll like it..
no stinky fumes..and water cleanup.
i will say though cheap homedepot masking tape has a water base adhesive..which if you spray heavy wet coats the glue can blead or leave a residue...on the cut edge.
not really a problem..with good masking tape or blue line vynl tape.
cheapst.
the pearls and flakes are everything you'd hope for.
