When I was getting my Bill Hurlow frame in 1974 in England (Bill's workshop was in Herne Bay not that far from Canterbury), I had to go to Broma's the frame painting company in London to pick it up. They painted a lot of different brands in the London area. While I was waiting to get my frame wrapped, I was able to watch the pin striper lug line a Hetchins. She was amazingly fast at it. I'm not positive of my memory but I think I remember her using a Sword Striping brush. That is the kind that has a wide body but a small tip so it can hold a supply of paint in the bristles so the striper doesn't have to keep dipping the brush in the paint to reload. The amount of time she took on each fancy lug was only a few minutes. Of course she does it every day all day long. I can do a decent job but to get it right it takes me a long time. She must have been 20 to 40 times faster than what I can do.
