    You're a legend, you are a great help. I been happy with your scrolling brushes and now a customer wants me to do lettering. So I looked to you today and you gave me the answers. I will contact you again very soon to get a few of the brushes sent to Australia.

    Steve you're a bad mo fo! I watched your videos because I was interested in different forms of art to try. Went to Dick Blick and grabbed some of your brushes and starting trying to work some magic. Unfortunately my fingers don't have the magic touch "yet". You make pinstriping look so fluid and timeless. Quite the contrary. I have a new found respect for you and all professional pinstripers. It's by far a perfected skill that takes much experience. I also purchased a Mack brush.... Doesn't compare to the flexibility and consistency of Kafka brush. Amazing quality products👌🏼 I also purchased the grid stencil and a few other items from your website, awesome stuff. Please keep making more videos, they really help. Rock on' 👊🏽

    That was great! Especially the last part about making some money. It got me thinking. Us know because I am an old ads street performer. In Corona time. And I had just got a few script brushes and some paint for my Christmas present to myself for living this long. I have been practicing on a big picture frame that I just turned the picture around and drew some lines on the big blank page. Anyway here we have a metal pile to put and take metal'trash'. In there earlier today was a fender from a motorcycle but didn't have a use for it until I saw this video.

    I want to try this with Acrylic fluid or inks, waterbased. Any recommendation on a brush that would suit? I have liner brushes with taklon that are springy, great for this lines n dagger strokes but none that are softer like this n have that spreading that seems to happen without individual strands going off n not having crisp edges.

    Hi Steve, I have a question about 1shot. I make wooden signs hand carved. I have had some problems with the paint. Have you ever had the paint dry and then kind of turn into a spiderweb affect? Do you always pallet on the magazine paper vs dipping into the can? What about painting over wood stain? Thanks for your advise and thank you for your videos they are very good! You are comforting to watch therefore it’s easy to pay attention 🤯. Do you ever come to St. Vibrations in Reno? Thanks again, Eric Sign Maker/Chef

    Eric Englund ,never heard of the spider web effect that your getting, wrong thinners? I always pallet with gloss format magazines. Sorry but I’ve never tried to paint over wood stain,but have double coated some carved signs. I just did my first show in Nevada in forty years, for the Von Dutch Cổ.

    Eric if the paint is too thick and globs up , it would seem reasonable to thin the paint and put several coats on with a drying time between each coat, would eliminate the issue..

    Hi Fred, Stop pre-mixing your paint, what you must learn is palleting. Watch all of my videos to see how I pallet my brush. The Longliner should be used blade side down as any sword striper is used.. Make sure you take the sizing out of the brushes before attempting to use them, simply wash out with non- auto lacquer thinner until soft ,then finish in mineral spirits ,store in my brush oil. The age of the paint doesn't matter ,just stir it well, e-mail me if you need help,and have fun! Steve

    Hi, im 16 and new to striping, i love your scroll brush wich i use to practice with. Im having a little trouble with using a 00 Longliner brush that i ordered from you. How would i use it? Another thing is, im having trouble with my one shot. I would always take it out of the can then add some thinner and some some mineral spirits. It seams to always dry up after a few minutes. The paint is around 7 months old. Would it be easier/ smarter to have premixed paint and if so how would i do that?Fred
