I need to get pictures! A friend of mine chanced onto an old press for some sort of canning process and started fixing it for his wife and got intrigued by the gold pinstripes.
He bought a few supplies and then found a nice kit at a swap meet.
He would practice on a lot of "his" stuff. He is now quite good and works as a painter at a local custom paint shop.
Toolbox, air compressor, fire extinguisher, file cabinets, toilet, trash cans, clocks, durn near everything is pinstriped or airbrushed.
He has a 7 foot swordfish on one wall that is an encyclopedia of painting techniques.
He tells tales of his wifes ire when he practiced his art on the toaster.
