Between comments like “hey dude that’s bad, can you teach me?” and “why don’t you just use tape like everybody else does,” Angelo Cruz has a tough time actually getting to the shiny stretches of new automotive sheet metal to which he applies a thin stripe of 1 Shot with a ferrule full of squirrel hair. Such is the life of a freehand pinstriper, whose day is filled with dodging the sweathog and slacker denizens of car dealer body shops and saying “Watch my hand...yeah, up here” so they don’t come over and rub their dirty coveralls up against the freshly-applied enamel.
