[@markargentine6259]

I've watched this one a few times but after getting your scroll stencils I'm doing much better on my scroll practice. I know everybody appreciates your videos. Thank you freddy

[@villapinstriping]

Thank you Mark! I hope all is well with you

8/7/23 - great lesson and teaching; it's similar to some calligraphy techniques I've studied in Oregon...pinstriping is the word instead of "making marks"!! Great work, you're doing, TKS

[@villapinstriping]

Thank you!

[@paulfoytack5267]

The crossing point tip was worth watching the whole video. Sometimes we look at something and don't really know why we like or don't like it. This was a great tip FV. Be safe.

[@villapinstriping]

Thank you Paul! yeah that is an important tip will keeping designs uncluttered.

[@oscarm.4857]

Been watching your videos. They have been helpful and great work. Thanks man.

Putting this in my library for practice info. Thanks for posting as these are very helpful for us that are just getting into this fun art form.

[@villapinstriping]

I appreciate it Bob!

I love Kafkas scrolling brushes and I've done some of my best work with them. They're so easy to make my scrolling work look good!

[@villapinstriping]

Kafkas all the way for me at the moment. Take care!

[@chrisnuttall8816]

You make it look so easy. Just got my first pinstriping brush and strating to practice. Your vids have been amazing help. Thank you so much!

[@villapinstriping]

Thanks so much Chris. I'm glad these are helping. If you could please make sure to click the like button. Helps my page be seen by new folks :) If you have any questions don't hesitate to ask.

[@allenwilson6787]

Your videos have been a tremendous help, I've recently starting striping and your basic design videos are super great. This video was super helpful as well. Scrolls seem less intimidating to do after watching this. Please keep the tips coming. Looking forward to the next ones.

[@villapinstriping]

Thank you for commenting Allen! I had a hard time finding info when I first started too so I'm trying to make this channel as comprehensive as possible.

Awsome as usual. Good to have your videos, ’cause it sucks now, with the virus!!!! 🇸🇪🇸🇪🇸🇪🤘😷👍

Excellent video… Thank you

[@villapinstriping]

I appreciate your input!

[@CR-ji4ub]

I did some flame work with my scroller today. After watching this video I’m going to practice these loops AND work on staying on the very tip of that brush. Not very good at it, but to me scrolling style is very satisfying.

[@villapinstriping]

It is indeed very satisfying to produce some solid scrolls

[@TheRooster1122]

That Silverado came out nice Freddy! Thanks for sharing your video brother..!!!

[@villapinstriping]

Thank you for checking it out!!

[@sped17373]

Lots of good info here....I gotta go back and watch part one. I'm not sure if I'll ever learn scrolling but I'll keep trying. So far doing better with lettering using one stroke brushes. My biggest handicap is that I'm using water-based paints only--no 1-Shot or other solvent-based lettering/striping enamels.....difficult to get correct paint consistency with water-based paint!

[@villapinstriping]

Ya. You're at a huge disadvantage with water based paint. But maybe you can cross some information into your art

[@sped17373]

@@villapinstriping Thanks! I wish I could find just ONE person who's also trying to make water-based paint stripe and letter like enamels. I cannot be the only one in this world. Hell, Mack brushes actually makes their 2838 Series specifically for water-based paint, so somebody out their is doing it. That being said--and keep in mind I'm a rank amateur just starting out striping and lettering @ 65 yrs. old.....so far, the 2 brushes I like are the No. 2 Drag'n Fly and No. 4 Virus II. Am quite familiar w/ outlining and have some experience with lettering as well, so not starting out completely cold.

[@sped17373]

@@villapinstriping Well, I've figured out one tip already. Those Dr. Martins calligraphy colors are water based. and made for airbrush, tech. pen, and....brush. And it's the right consistency to flow off your brush very nicely. Once I can get the consistency and opacity of enamels by using water-based E'tac and Wicked, it's going to be a game changer for me.....similar to when I realized I could actually DRAW pencil-thick lines with my airbrush.

Thanks for this Villa

So many great tips in this video, I wanted to ask you if you trim your brushes at all? I seem to have just one or two hairs that are too long. I also want to buy several more 1 shot colors through your Amazon links, but the sets of colors have been sold out for a while... Do you still make a commission if I click your link then browse and buy the colors individually? I want to support your page, you've been incredibly helpful.

[@villapinstriping]

Just a couple hairs yes. Absolutely trim them off. You want a clean crisp tip to the brush. A few extra hairs sticking out would be out of place and trimmed off by a razor blade. Also, Yes I actually get a commission of of anything you purchase through them links. Absolutely anything. TV's, Earbuds, whatever :) And I appreciate you giving me the heads up. I need to revamp that list soon. It's been a while since I've managed the list

[@villapinstriping]

Look up a video by ElRoy about trimming brush hairs. Very helpful as well

[@villapinstriping]

I will say, also, I've never trimmed a scroll brush. I exclusively use Kafkas and I've never had a problem with their "cuts".

[@stamaths1999]

very detailed videos and great work on the pinstriping techniques. I just started pinstriping and got a scroller brush. Unfortunately I can't get my hands on 1 shot or alphanamel so I got a cheaper enamel paint which I believe works quite good. My problem is that when I do the scrolling the brush tends to flare the paint a bit.I cleaned it very well when I got it with nitro thinner and then with white spirit. Is that because the paint is too thick or over reduced? or it is my technique? Also, should I get mineral spirits for thinning the paint ? cause with white spirits it strarts drying pretty fast on my pallet. thanx and keep it up!

[@villapinstriping]

You have a lot of questions in one comment brother. I'll put some links to videos that may help. Flair outs can usually be caused by many reasons. Mostly lack of practice. This takes at least a year of practice to understand

I’m also the Artist that started the scrolling technique years ago, referred to as the “Kafka’ style . Show some of your work on cars,trucks, or motorcycles to inspire more Artists, the money is amazing at shows all over the world !

[@villapinstriping]

Any time!

[@VictorPaulDiaz]

Thanks for the videos! Can you explain how you hold and twist the brush? I'm using the kafka 3 and when I come around on The loop it the line thickens up on me

[@villapinstriping]

With a kafka scroller you don't have to twist the brush, just hold it in a comfortable way that you can continue the loop. I'll try to make a video for you soon.

[@madelinecox863]

What are you painting on? I saw video about glass but this looks like a whiteboard. Sorry if I missed it somewhere in the video!

[@villapinstriping]

It is a random white board. You can practice on almost anything. I started off on glass because its reusable. But over the years, ive Pinstriped on all kinds of materials. Just has to be smooth

[@aaricmoreno-frank2337]

Absolute tip tee-shirts?

[@jonathanwoods7896]

how can i straighten my brush base? I have a kafka 1 scroller but drenched it with oil and now it has a curve to it

[@villapinstriping]

You can clean it off with Dishwashing soap and warm water, then.. blow-dry it. **Very important** When you re oil make sure it is stored on a flat surface with the hairs straightened out

[@stevekafka]

What are you calling the base?

[@stevekafka]

After watching this I have a recommendation that will help you , left hand thumb tip touches first knuckle on right hand thumb open up the left had for more control, watch my videos for more info, good luck...

[@stevekafka]

Also gargle before you make these videos ,try gargling to stop the throat clearing noises that you make…

[@villapinstriping]

Thanks Steve 🙂
