It's as if that diner is some hallowed Stray Cats monastery. What an honor it must be to be indoctrinated into the Brotherhood.

pinstripe starter kit to do it right=


or hit the hobby shop for some polyacrylic vintage white,
a little
bit of 00g stainless (to rough up the surface you will paint.
a steady hand and ten minutes time will land you a great look.
You may have to hit it a second coat but as long as you focus on
the routed surface, it shouldnt be to hard for ya. I cheated on an upright
bass and used paint pens once just because the Fholes were sooo large.
Another great cheat is to use painters mask over the Fhole and then take
a hobby knife/razor and carefully cut along the inside of the route, this allows
you to be a little sloppy at first without gettin paint on the body surface and then
when the paint dries you can buff it out fairly easy without worries of burning through
the edge.

All you really need (and its the way I did it and it came out great) is one small bottle of automotive touch up paint that comes with the brush already placed in the lid. its economic, and all the tool are right there in the bottle. no need to clean brushes, buy thinner....etc.
you will need to paint it more than one cause its white and it takes a couple of passes, and lots of patients, and a steady hand.
-Good Luck

P.S. i dont have the picks on my computer, just copy and paste the onto a Powerpoint document and print, or just right click the image and print onto sticker paper. when it comes out, its to scale and then carefully cut it out with an xacto or priscission hooby knife.

By the way, i forgot to mention, is that you can use a photoshop type program to adjust the contrast on the image so when you print it, it dosent come out too bright. remember whenever you print a picture it always never comes out just as you saw it on the screen, im saying this in order to save you some messed up sticker paper...they dont come as cheap as plain white paper you know.
