pinstriper
Automotive accent artist
A pinstriper is someone who paints pinstripes—thin decorative lines applied to vehicles, typically cars and motorcycles.
The craft requires a steady hand and specialized brushes to create clean, flowing lines along body panels: The pinstriper added flames and scrollwork to the hot rod.
Pinstriping is associated with custom car culture and traditional sign painting.
