Pinstriping: Lug specific brush.

Just wondering what people are using for their lug lining. Right now I am using a #000, but am thinking there is a gem in the way of a short sable hair type brush out there; far more suited for lugs than a sword brush.

I think most people are using paint pens.

I've had the best luck with a short chisel point brush. It's like a miniature sash brush.

paint pens are not an option imo. No colors, and improperly thinned to have any decent flowout on a stripe.

cassave:

will check em out, thanks!
