Pin striping techniquesHey, I am thinking of pin striping my car, I have gone with 9mm tape or 3/8 inches for my sedan. If this is the wrong size please tell me =).
I have a couple of rolls so i was doing a few tests on the best technique for a clean installation, but I didn't manage to get anything suitable..
So I was just looking for any advice from anyone who has pin striped their car on how they installed it, and any techniques they used.
Thanks = )

You're putting it on the bumper moldings yeah?
Make sure you do it in long sections, if you constantly real of small bits and put it on, it's going to be crooked as F**k.
Take your time!

I used some type of tape for my molding also. It looks okay but can look waaay better. You guys think Lowes or Home Depot has these pin stripes?

No not really. Pin striping is the same thinner than a4 paper and has a shiny texture.
