Bikes: Ron Cooper touring, 1959 Jack Taylor 650b ladyback touring tandem, Vitus 979, Joe Bell painted Claud Butler Dalesman, Colin Laing curved tube tandem, heavily-Dilberted 1982 Trek 6xx, René Herse tandem

The Taylors used a roller for Jack's paint work, as seen at 12:00-14:54 in this video. In the video you can see Jack doing his famous box lining, but I imagine he could have used it for lug lining as well. For the tinier curves, I imagine they would have had to use a brush. He does mention they previously had a man do it with a brush.
