2. SCROLLS & SCRIPTS

WIPEOUT TOOLS HAVE MOVED TO DIPPERS ETC

Remember: when selecting your brushes, that the lower the size number the finer the lines to be produced.  

These brushes must always be oiled when stored and kept flat.

I prefer to use neatsfoot oil which is a traditional pinstripers choice. 

Some books, written by professional stripers, tell you to trim the 'belly' out of the brush. 

Don't do it ! It destroys the paint holding capacity if you go too far.  NOT for  beginner.

New Kafka Short Stroke

Steve's new brush called the short stroke is designed 

the same as his signature #3 scroll brush.

The hair and handle are just a little shorter.

This thing is just awesome.

It holds a lot of paint, will go on forever, will keep up to what ever speed you go

and will do circles forever. He certainly has a winner here. It will even do long lines.

"The Virus"

              Actual Sizes

          The Jensen Swirly Q

The Jenson's Swirly Q brush is designed for scroll striping and script lettering with enamel based paints. Scroll striping requires thinner paint. If mineral spirits were to be used, the paint would run easier. I recommend using a slow drying automotive reducer (like the Oneshot High Temperature Reducer) for thinning enamel based paints. lean the brush thoroughly with reducer before and after each use. Never use lacquer thinner! Always store your brush in neatsfoot oil between uses.

Both Sizes Have The Same Diameter. However The JS-1 is 1-7/16" Out and The JS-2 is 1-11/16" Out.

"Wizard Vortex"
Blue Squirrel - Grey Handle

(Actual Size)

Available in 2 Sizes:  WV-1 & WV-2

Wizard Vortex - “If you use scroll striping, you’ll love this brush! After 30 years of scrolling we’ve developed what I think is the finest

brush available for this style. It gives beautiful controlled lines that respond exactly to your movements without the slightest

hesitation, splitting or fraying in the turns. It holds its line throughout the pattern and gives you more response - like the most

expensive brushes used for scrolling. I recommend this for beginners as well as seasoned veterans of this style.”

—Steve Chaszeyka

"Wizard Typhoon"
Kazan Squirrel - Bronze Handle

(Actual Size)

Available in 2 Sizes:  WT-1 & WT-2

Available in 2 Sizes: WT-1 & WT-2

Wizard Typhoon - “Just a ‘hair’ faster than the Vortex, but with all the quality, this baby moves right along. As fast as you can think

of a design, the typhoon seems to read your mind and anticipate your next move. The hair was chosen for quick response time and

accurate placement on any surface. I especially like this brush for motorcycle work because of the curved surfaces and the

brushes ‘forgiveness’ in tight turns. I am amazed at its performance every time I use it.”

—Steve Chaszeyka

Bobbo Mack Super Quad

4 action brush

This is yet another development from Mack this time with pinstriping guru Bobbo Dunn. A new brush to fulfil some of the difficult tasks of using a brush to its fullest. This brush because of its shorter bristles and fine blue squirrel and black synthetic mix, makes scrolling easier and faster. It also pinstripes short lines, 2-4 feet in length (!) without having to change brushes. Plus it will allow you to letter your signature very small and also do small script lettering..

The snap and flexibility of this brush should allow you to use the brush for up to four purposes without having to change brushes. You will need to hold the brush at approximately 65 - 85 degrees angle utilising the first 1/4" of the brush tip. Using more than 1/2" will widen your lines and disfigure your artwork. Heavy pressure and lifting will create the perfect teardrop effect.
